April A to Z - N is for Nicholson, Russ

Russ Nicholson is an excellent illustrator who has directed his talents to many things, including many prolific gamebooks.  I interviewed him last year  and he was kind enough to return again, so let's see what he's been up to.

  • Who you are and how you got into illustrating gamebooks?
Russ Nicholson. Got started with FF Gamesbooks, The Fiend Folio and have contributed art for many books, games & publications since. 
  • What you have done since April 2012?
Since last year? Contributed to many games related publications, including several French companies, Goodman Games, Kobold Publishing, Silver Sprocket Cycling Company and many others, as well as private commissions.
  • What you plan on doing now related to gamebooks/solos/RPGs/art?
 Couple of big projects lined up as well as private commissions.

  • What you think the future of gamebooks/solos/RPGs/art  is?
I'm no clairvoyant, but considering the internet and rise of apps, etc. believe it is reasonably healthy for a good while yet.  

If you want to see Russ's excellent art, head on down to his blog.
