They had to pay him extra to not put some naked mermaids in there

That game is nuts. As a kid I thought it was a funny dolphin game. Years later there’s some plot with aliens and a space princess? Wild 🐬

Oh yah. Awesome piece indeed.😍

Boris is of my favorite artists along with his wife, Julie Bell. I actually taught myself to paint with his fantasy art techniques book.

Unsurprisingly he did Golden Axe 2 as well.

One of the first games we got for the Genesis because my sister and I thought it would be similar to the film Free Willy

I vividly remember when Willy had to battle aliens. This game followed in the best footsteps ❤️

haha definitely less Wincer, more Giger 😋

Along with Golden Axe II and Phantasy Star II, IIRC
