As standard for a function of this dimension—we ran one earlier this week!—it’s not everybody who labored in each space of the sport’s improvement, however it’s a pleasant cross-section. Certainly this function is so huge, and showcases a lot stuff from so many gifted folks, that I solely actually had the bandwidth to function illustration work (you may see much more stuff at this artwork blast).
As standard, you may take a look at extra of every artist’s stuff within the hyperlinks discovered of their names beneath.
