Middle-Earth Collectible Card Game Binder I
999 Games, Eindhoven, Holland
"Fear! Fire! Foes!" as the saying goes...
This is not only a collector's item, featuring Gandalf the Rather Green, but it's also a fraud.
999 Games edited, without anybody's permission, three plastic-covered binders featuring my artwork, entirely convinced that this was such a great idea that there was no point in asking the interested parties if they were... well... interested.
Naturally I was never paid anything for the use of the image, and actually had to purchase the binders from a shop in Holland to obtain my incriminating copies.
Nice collector's items, though...
The director os 999 Games, Michale Bruinsma is that breed of publisher who feels that illustrators should be thankful to get the exposure. Pay them? Whatever for?
For the full story.
