Re: ZGI artwork

What a great site this is.  Lots of screenies, artwork, - everything really (except for a new game!) And I've just realized: I did not ever get an Encyclopaedia Frobozzica w...

Re: ZGI artwork

Thanks.  I had hoped the 'unused artwork' was more than just concept sketches, interesting as they are.    I'll keep looking - the backstory sounds good.

Thanks: I'd love to see some scanned images.
