Video game modder/researcher. Mostly just Spyro: A Hero's Tail, though.

In case you were unaware, Drew Struzan was also the creator of the cover art for Spyro: A Hero's Tail.

This cover has been etched into my mind since I was a kid, and it remains an incredibly striking visual to capture the spirit of the game.

May he rest in peace.

I got 100% on Spyro A Hero's Tail's RetroAchievements in a single day. I have perhaps played this game too much.
A screenshot of my RetroAchievements status on Spyro: A Hero's Tail. Every achievement is unlocked. They all have a gold border, since I used "hardcore mode" (which disallows savestates).

The design document for Gloomy Glacier in Spyro: A Hero's Tail pitches the level as "the sacred Dragons Graveyard, the final resting place of the huge ancient Dragons."
This is not explained in the final game, but is hinted at with the skeletons lying around.

A screenshot of Spyro: A Hero's Tail. The subject is a dragon skeleton lying on a warmly lit cave floor. The introductory paragraphs of the Gloomy Glacier design document made for Spyro: A Hero's Tail. The heading reads "REALM 3 B - Gloomy Glacier" The text reads: This level is a near impenetrable pass through the mountains and a long steep climb up to the Ice Citadel. Set in a deep ravine between mountains lies the sacred Dragons Graveyard, the final resting place of the huge ancient Dragons. Inspired by the Elephants graveyard in ‘Lion King’ and the Dinosaurs graveyard in ‘Jak and Daxter’, this area has potential for striking visuals and lighting with detailed, interesting bone and rock formations. The level is played entirely as Hunter, so all the elements and enemies should be tailored for his specific movement and attack abilities.

I got a screenshot idea and immediately had to make it
Screenshot of Spyro: A Hero's Tail. A dragon skeleton is lying on a warmly lit cave floor. Its spine curls around in a circle, and in the middle, a little sleeping Spyro, curled up as well.
