Listing of models for card art?

Is there any webpage or listing out there that compiles the many WotC employees, White Wolf employees, and top VtES players who have been immortalized in card art, along with which card they're on? I ask because I recently came across a signed copy of Igo The Hungry from the Jyhad printing. It's signed by Edward Beard (the artist) and Keith Slade, whoever that is. All I can think is that maybe Keith was the model for the Igo artwork? He's not listed in the original Jyhad rulebook. Or maybe he was just some random twerp that decided to sign a card to confuse people 15 years later. Thanks!

Mark Merlin Petersen is on Blood Tempering. Heather Kreiter (artist) ran into him at the NAC or somewhere and took reference photos. Marks not an organizational guy - he authored the Trujah newsletter for a stint a while back iirc. I suggest a new strategy...let the Wookie win.

Dovey Ebfwe, the male Ahrimane = Erik Torstensson, top player Overkill is highly underrated. You know, like in computor games and such.

Oh, just so everyone knows: Lawrence Snelly is a complete fucking asshole and will get EXTREMELY UPSET if you mention VTES to him. I don't know why he is such a complete fucking asshole to the fans, but maybe CCP/WW screwed him over somehow. I've heard stories from artists that got screwed over by WW in the olden days, but nothing recently by CCP/WW. But who knows.

Dovey is the same artwork as Artemis from the Sabbat expansion, with very few changes.

I wanted to give him money, and he threw it back in my face and made it personal. Fuck him.

I've heard nothing but good things about Craig, and he was kind in his email response to me, with reasonable prices on his items.
