Tom Baxa. He's painted or inked a number of Planescape monsters here and there. He illustrated the old Monstrous Compendium Outer Planes Appendix, but I think he's improved as an artist dramatically since then.

Randy K. Post. He did some Planescape covers and illustrated much of Dead Gods.

Adam Rex. He did much of the later interior art after DiTerlizzi left. He painted the color parts of Dead Gods, and my favorite monster illustrations in the Planescape Monstrous Compendium Volume III and the 3e Monster Manual.

Robh Ruppel. Lots of cover art, and he co-illustrated the comic book inside Hellbound.

Gerald Brom. He did the cover of The Inner Planes. His art is great inspiration for Doomguard and Dustmen.

Anthony Waters No real Planescape connection, but Dana Knutson is his art director and he paints elementals and angels of death.

Brian Despain. He did some art in the Planescape Monstrous Compendium III. That was pretty shoddy, but the art on his site is really good and interesting in a quirky way, the way I like it.

Douglas Carrel. Fantastically weird creatures.

Scott Fischer. Monsters, humanoids, and Asmodeus.

Dave Allsop. Darker and weirder than anything I've linked to so far. Or, at least more weirdly dark.

Claudio Pozas. His Planewalker character design.

Can't forget Brian Froud. One of DiTerlizzi's forefathers.

Giovanni Piranesi Check out the images labeled "Carceri" - they're what David Cook was looking at when he was dreaming up Sigil.

Various links I haven't looked through

Planewalker.com's Artist Alley

Caries-Caeli. He's recently started posting in the Planewalker forums.

Chris Appelhans. You can see his early work in the Mimir's art gallery. Now he's mature and professional and does a lot of dark surreal urban fantasy.

Planewalker.com's Artist Alley (can't believe I forgot this one)

Rob Thomas. Demons and undead and such.

more Piranesi. More surreal architectural cages and prisons.

David Mitchell. Sigil in graphite.

Erol Otus (Otus was a 1st edition illustrator; he's got a wild, cartoonish style that I think is pretty interesting)

Thanks alot, Rip!

Besides of DiTerlizzi, i like the French Visionary Art, and the galleries of Brom and Piranesi most.

This probably isn't the right thread to ask this on but on a site Rip listed above

there's a sample header down the bottom saying "Planescape Doomguard" was this the original concept name or what?

Shemeshka's Storyhour Art

I've just done some art. =)
It's the scene at the very beginning of Shemeshka's Storyhour. Let me quote.

Quote:

Within the depths of the city the first Ultraloth, the General of Gehenna himself sat and pondered over a great table of maps, diagrams and figures. He sat tracing out the desired path of the armies of both the Baatezu and Tanar?ri, and the required actions of the Yugoloths in order to balance both sides in the war, yet make it seem as nothing more than the eternal stalemate between the sides. Let no pattern of influence fall to the eyes and minds of the other fiends. Let them remain ignorant of the truth, and even ignorant of his existence. After all, his very hand had played a role in their very creation as the waste left over from his purification of the Yugoloths.

Around his neck upon a chain of cold iron hung a black sapphire that gleamed with an inner luminescence, the Heart of Darkness, the artifact that he had created at the tutelage and instruction of his makers, the Baernaloths, the Gloom Fathers, the first fiends. The inner light of the Heart shed its faceted patterns and shadows across the maps before The General, the rest of the chamber a study in inky darkness, and empty except for its maker.

With brilliant ease the prince of Ultraloths balanced armies and tugged upon the strings of power that would profit his race and provide the raw data of their grand experiment into the nature of evil that was the Blood War. This time however, something weighed upon the being of The General, a subtle but persistent tug upon his black soul. For the first time in eons he was uncertain and troubled by this. Whatever it was, it seemed oddly familiar upon his mind as if he had once before felt its touch. The General paused and pondered, his eyes shifting in patterns of malign color, with not a drop of emotions behind them in the cold and detached clinical evil that permeated the thoughts in his brain.

In the darkness behind the General, the shadows stirred suddenly and took form, congealing rapidly into a figure that stood heads above the ultraloth prince. Milky, cataract filmed eyes gazed down upon the General as the form placed its bony hands upon his shoulders. The General did not react at the touch, seemingly unfazed and unconcerned at the being?s sudden presence.

(Shemeshka's Storyhour is here http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=77613)

Well... No faceted patterns of light. And the Baernaloth is too small. Let's suppose that he has bended Maybe that's because I'm totally new to pastels and thus incapable of performing the faceted light effects Anyway....

This is really good! It isn't too similar to DiTerlizzi but it still has that planar flavor

Very cool pictures, I like the surroundings.
Your ultroloth is old school .
Unfortunately I'll have to get some free time for reading the story.

I'll try my hand at pastels as well.

Planescape Art

I've been periodically putting some new art on my DeviantArt gallery so you should bother to check it every once in a while. Well in many ways it's tangential to Planescape, in that most of it has characters who live on the planes, but then the situations take off from there in different directions. Eventually there might be more pieces that aren't related at all, but currently most of it is the saga of my characters.

One of my more recent pieces is a picture of the gang all these pictures centre around.

While this one about baatezu bashing is perhaps one of the more recongnizably planescape related ones. Though it's probably an example of how to handle a situation badly with the baatezu.

Some of them are silly such as Ninja-Pirates.

Other recent favourites of mine are:
The Bharvatlan family
Sheena Cheng/ Cheng Xi Na
Undersigil crimelord Zareena the Bitch-Queen
Frelassa, Annaerlitha and Kess
Frelassa and Dao Qian
The male characters standing on one of Sigil's rooftops
The female characters getting out of an airship
