Need contact information for Karl Waller (artist)

Post by Halaster Blackcloak »

Karl Waller, the artist from the original Ruins of Undermountain, once offered to do a FREE full-page piece of art for Ruins of Undermountain III: The Deadly Levels. I've since lost touch with him and I can't seem to find a website that has contact information for him. Can anyone help me do some sleuthing? Haven't had a ton of free time lately to be searching.

I'm thinking - if I have to pay an artist, why the hell not pay the ORIGINAL artist and make our product TOTALLY faithful to the original right down to the same art? :shock:

Hell, it'll be the end of the year before I have to commission the art, and the new job should pay well enough that I'll be able to afford it. It would be a dream come true! I still hold the promise Doirche and I made to print up a copy of this project when it's done - the books, the posters, everything - and print up the cover for the box and glue it together and make a box set to send to Ed Greenwood as a thank you for giving us the best campaign setting and the ultimate dungeon ever published. Gotta make the art good. So I figured, what the hell, why not hire the best Undermountain artist of all time? :D

6 years ago... however some art has a 2017-2019 copyright.

Its a start.
At the edge of madness, he will show no sadness
Never broken, he'll be back for more
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
No fear of death, he's unshakeable
Forged for the war, he's unbreakable

Yeah, I'm hoping the gmail account is active. I doubt the AOL is. Does anyone even still have AOL? Such a sucky service! Does it even still exist?
