Amiga Graphics Archive About Links

Launched in 1985 the Commodore Amiga boasted graphics capabilities that were unsurpassed for it's time.

It featured an intricate collection of custom chips that enabled it to do things that, until then, had been impossible to achieve with other personal computers.

This site is dedicated to graphics made with or for the Commodore Amiga home computer.

Added graphics from the game Warhead, which uses its limited palette to great effect to create metallic surfaces and structures.

I recently stumbled across dumps of official Psygnosis backup disks and this is the first batch of files I was able to add to the already existing Aquaventura section, including all rendered sequences taken directly from the game.

The WIP sequence for the title art gives an especially fascinating insight into how this images was created.

Added more awesome images from Ian Harling, with images from his canceled game Flag coming directly from the artist himself.

I'm also for the first time adding images that are not in their perfect uncompressed form, because I think they're too cool to omit just because of some compression artifacts. Here I added an image from the game Flag to Ian's overview section.

After a much too long delay I added two fighting games to the site: Karate Kid 2 and Master Axe. I'll be adding more games from that genre, but with the amount of detail that these types of games cram into their backgrounds it can become quite a big task to grab everything.

Added some wonderfull images from Sharon Long. Magazine appearances suggest these must have been created around 1988.

I also have a couple of broken files in this collection which I didn't upload, but chances are slim that I'll be able to find intact versions.

This update adds more images from Garvan Corbett and a lot of single images from games. To reduce the amount of clicking I now show the image of a section directly, if there's only one image in that section.

For this huge update I finally added a lot of fantastic images from Defender of the Crown 1 and 2 by Jim Sachs.

The games came out between 1986 and 1993 and marked the beginning of a whole new genre of cinematic games, most of which being published by Cinemaware.

Jason sent me a couple of images that he got from Jim Sachs, when he visited him at his home during the 1990's. Apart from two variations of already existing images, he also had a rare image from Jim Sachs' abandoned 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea prototype. Many thanks go to Jason for holding on to and sending me the images.

I'm also working on a larger update with more images from Jim Sachs, so there'll be more stuff coming in the next couple of weeks.
