Few words about the life and work of the artist, taken from Wikipedia:

"Boris Vallejo (born January 8, 1941 in Lima, Peru) is a Peruvian-born American painter. He emigrated to the United States in 1964, and he currently resides in Allentown, Pennsylvania. He frequently works with Julie Bell, his wife, painter and model.

Vallejo works almost exclusively in the fantasy and erotica genres. His hyper-representational paintings have graced the covers of dozens of science fiction paperbacks and are featured in a series of best-selling glossy calendars. Subjects of his paintings are typically gods, monsters, and well-muscled male and female barbarians engaged in battle. Some of his male figures were modeled by Vallejo himself, and many of his later female characters were modeled by his wife. His latest works still retain heavy fantasy elements, but lean more towards the erotic rather than pure fantasy themes."

The list includes artwork created by Boris Vallejo and, in some cases, Boris and his wife Julie Bell, for the covers of video games. It's still a work in progress and suggestions are very welcome.

*Note that the title and the chronology under the images are related to the painting and not the game.
