Swedish artist Johan Egerkrans has brought Scandinavian folklore to popular attention with his incredible books on monsters like Vaesen, Norse Gods, and Dragons. The critically acclaimed horror RPG Vaesen is based on his work, and his art has inspired countless scary adventures. And throughout it all Johan has remained a keen hobbyist whose Warhammer miniatures & conversions have been featured in White Dwarf!

We talk about drawing monsters from an early age, taking artistic inspiration from Paul Bonner & John Blanche, creating Vaesen and seeing it become a roleplaying game phenomenon, and converting Warhammer 40k miniatures for Inquisitor 28!
