Hi All,

I was curious if there are any resources out there that detail D&D artwork, kind of a comprehensive catch-all for each publication? For example, in the 5E PH, there are quite a few interior illustrators listed but I have no idea who is responsible for any given piece, since most/all of the art does not seem to bear any sort of signature or initials. Is there anything that lists page-by-page artist credits? Or would I be better off asking WoTC directly, or on their forums? Thanks.

I don't really know of any, but what I'd suggest is to look through the credit page on say the D&D 5e MM and simply go through one by one and see if each artist has a website or a fb page. Just begin familiarizing yourself with their style and it hopefully will be apparent who did which illustration as you flip through the MM. Or at least you'll have figured out a good percentage of them.

Otherwise, post a scan of an illustration and maybe one of us will know who did it.
