I lucky enough to be asked to do a cover for the D&D digital magazine Dragon + earlier this year. I was asked to incorporate 3 things
-Were Rats (Referencing the year of the Rat)
- The year 2020 prominently on the cover (Richard Whitters suggested D20s as a possibility, which made a lot of sense to me)
- An Ampersand hidden somewhere, referencing the iconic D&D Logo.
I thought a bunch of Were Rats rolling for loot in the sewers would be a really fun image to draw, so that's the direction I took it in. Had a ton of fun.
