Fantasy middle eastern/desert themed art thread

Fantasy middle eastern/desert themed art thread

I'm starting a game and am hoarding anything that could potentially inspire future encounters and such.

Landscapes, monsters, characters, anything goes, so long as it fits the theme.

The world I made is pretty high fantasy too, so crazy magic shit is definitely a plus.

Lots of djinn, spirits and elementals running around the dunes and canyons.

Good luck, OP!

...

Thanks, my dude!

Oh man, are you me? I'm also rolling up a desert campaign setting right now. Saved quite a few of these!

Amano Yoshitaka did a bunch of art for a 1,001 Nights-themed symphony back in like the late 90s.

...

If you can, look for the old Al Qadim book Cities of Bone, got some undead themed adventures, from an undead horses to fat decadent wizard lords with a zombie household. I'd post it, but I'm at work and won't be home for 7 hours

Couple more before I assume nobody's here.

Eh.

...

I'll post a few, desert aesthetic is best aesthetic

That's enough from me

Could you tell us more about your world? The Middle East is such an interesting, diverse place, but so often it gets lost in a muck of shitty, unimaginative orientalism.

And that's me. Hope you enjoyed!

Oops, wait. THAT'S me.
