Three wallpapers released for the recently released Rackham miniatures game, AT-43.

Trauma was the starting point of a new age after the climate and orbit patterns of the planet Ava were drastically changed due to battles between the invading machine-like Therians and human forces on the planet who eventually prevailed and drove the Therians off. In AT-43 (43 Years After Trauma), the human forces start their counterattack and take up the offensive against the Therians.

Actually the primary draw of this game for me was the calibre of some of the artists for the game - Adrian Smith (previous post), Karl Kopinski (previous post), Kev Walker, Paolo Parente, etc.

Two of the four promotional wallpapers for the game.

The first one (also the box art for Operation Damocles boxset) seems to be by Karl Kopinski (The faces on the U.N.A White Stars have the distinctive style of Mr Kopinski).

The second one looks like it’s done by Adrian Smith. Not too sure about this one though as it’s uncredited on the wallpaper.

You can download the wallpapers here.

Was searching for concept art for Rackham’s new AT-43 game when I chanced upon concept art for Paolo Parente’s Dust by Alessia Zambonin.

Some thumbnails of Alessia Zambonin’s artwork for Dust are displayed below. Click here to view the full artwork as well as her other artworks.

Dust is a miniatures game based in an alternative history where the Second World War has been extended into the 1950s. Characters in this game wear WW2 era clothing but are equipped with modern weapons and fight with walker type war machines (think WW2 tanks with legs)

You can preview the game artwork at the official web site at www.dustgame.com or view units for each of the three factions via the links below. Allies, Imperial Japan, Sino-Soviet Union.
