Very cool. The placement of the title obsures the battle and main explosing though...it sort of looks like a giant ship is crashing into the planet :( I think her expression is rather plain for what's happening in the background.

Wow. great image. It looks just like a book cover ;). scifiguy, if you look at it in pieces, it makes more sense. More like a compulation of various scenes rather than the one scene. Just like a Star Trek novel cover :)

Wow, I love your images. Everything in this picture is very well done. I hope in the future when we have great starships traveling to the stars, it has cute girls on them as well!! =) Assimilate me any day babe!

Okay, is this a legitimate cover for a David Weber paperback? Or is it a sample for your portfolio? If it's for real, how'd you get that job? :c) Great work!

This is totally self-promotion. It was not commissioned. However, if the publisher were to re-issue the series and wanted a new set of covers, well, I'm available! (^_^')

Very original idea for a gallery image! Well done! :-)

=g= That's our Honor... even with things going to hell, she keeps her cool. I love the focused intensity of her expression.

i like the arrangement of the scenery and the whole layout. the ships also look quiet as described (also i'd like to see some closeups of them and a bit more of that tactical holo-tank - perhabs in another pictures ??? plea g). only two minor details to think about. there could be a bit more of a expression in her face (ie a hint of an evil grin of some kind, or contentedness) and i myself thought of her eyes to look more asian... one last thing: the op-center (both main and backup) are in the core of the ship... so actually you could not watch your fine ships & battle through a panorama-window ;-)
