Gorgeous artwork there, funny how these "amateurs" can capture the essence of Bond in ways Babz can only dream of.

Re: Rare/Interesting Bond related Pics Thread
That's what happens when you have people making these films who put Bond beneath them. When searching for Bond artwork to post here, I've come across some really great fan poster art for Craig's Bond. Here's one for Casino Royale:dirtybenny wrote: ↑Thu Oct 14, 2021 6:22 pm Gorgeous artwork there, funny how these "amateurs" can capture the essence of Bond in ways Babz can only dream of.
While it wouldn't make his Bond films any more enjoyable, it does show how uninspired the marketing has even become. But I'll save my ranting for another thread because this one should be cheerful.
Here is a Turkish paperback cover artwork for A View To A Kill.

Re: Rare/Interesting Bond related Pics Thread
I agree, I've seen some rather inspired "amateur" posters for the Craig films, far more intriguing than the "official" shlock, but as you say this is not the venue to discuss that, we'll have to meet up in another thread and chat.The Saint 007 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 15, 2021 11:36 amThat's what happens when you have people making these films who put Bond beneath them.

Re: Rare/Interesting Bond related Pics Thread
Some excellent artwork there, too bad his Cragginess is featured so prominently in the second one.

Re: Rare/Interesting Bond related Pics Thread
I was a bit hesitant to post the artwork because of that, but it's not the first time I've posted great Bond tribute art that has sadly featured Craig in it. I usually try to avoid it for obvious reasons, but the tribute piece above is just so fantastic I decided post it here regardless.dirtybenny wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 4:49 pm Some excellent artwork there, too bad his Cragginess is featured so prominently in the second one.
