Sorry for no late-night post last night. I was up until 4 struggling with a new render. I did this cover in the last months of 2010 for the anthology Blue Kingdoms: Mages & Magic. Jean Rabe & I have been putting out Blue Kingdoms anthologies for a number of years now, and we plan to release at least one more this year. As publisher/designer/co-world-creator, I always end up doing the covers -- though I have worked with stock photos and other people's art in the past. This cover shows Rav Bloodwind from my story in the book, "The Last Alchemist" -- though the scene isn't precisely from the story. Actually, I designed it with a 2nd use in mind; I hope to use it -- in modified form -- for the cover of the e-book story, when I get around to releasing that. When I do, expect to see Rav from behind as he prepares to enter the tower of the Alchemist Prime. You might say, this is the doors looking at Rav, and the next one will be Rav looking at the doors. (Though in the story he's surrounded by a canyon, not an island bay, as here.) Anyway, I still have some more to post, and I'm working on new covers/images and stories all the time. Check out my (free) newsletter and website to keep abreast. (Heh heh! He just said "breast!") Enjoy!
