Breach 2 cover (1990) 🔗


Breach is a series of hardcore tactics game by Omnitrend Software. Publisher Mindraft brought artist Bruce Eagle on for the cover art, who is no stranger to borrowing from Boris Vallejo. His alien seems quite original to me, but the poor space man it shoots down holds a quite familiar pose.

Metal Morph cover (1994) 🔗


Another cover that borrows several of Frazetta’s fall guys from various black-and-white drawings. The origin of the bald hero in the center is still unknown, looks more like a movie still to me.

Discovered by corsair from the Hardcore Gaming 101 forums.
