Altdorf Crown of the Empire Interiors


 



Here is some of the work I did for the recent 'Altdorf Crown of the Empire' book over at Cubicle 7 Entertainment. Was great having a chance to take a stab at what the city of Altdorf was like after doing the cover. Thanks has to go out to producers Dave Allen for his font of knowledge and support on this, and to Padraig Murphy on the design ideas shield of Altdorf. Of course it would only be a jumble of words & images without the graphic design of Rachael Macken. And finally to the large group of people, from writers to artists, who bring these books to life.

As for the book itself:

Altdorf is the capital city of the Empire and the birthplace of Sigmar Heldenhammer. It is the most populous city in the Old World, and the site of several famous and majestic landmarks. The Imperial Palace and the Grand Cathedral of Sigmar are monumental edifices, larger than whole districts of smaller cities. The Colleges of Magic tower over the banks of fog that blow in off the Reik, venting gouts of sorcerous fire and fume. Altdorf has another side to it, in the teeming rookeries of the East End and the bustling Dockland to the north, gangland intimidation and revolutionary fervour are felt more keenly than the word of Sigmar’s priests, or the rule of the Emperor’s laws.
