"Rhaa lovely!"
Swords & Wizardry & Manga ... oh my.
(Beware. This is a Kickstarter link.)

Quote from: One Horse Town;590011Well, my avatar is the cover Jon Hodgson did for Stone Horizons.

You should get a better look-see by clicking on the thumb-nail.

Wow. Earlier today I was in a local book store where I saw the brand new reprint of Hans Bemmann's classic fantasy novel, Stein und Flöte.



Congratulations, Jon, that your piece of art graces one of the finest examples (IMHO) of fantasy/faerie tale literature!

(Even though I find the choice a bit weird because the image doesn't resemble anything that happens in that book. The older covers--German and English ones alike--were more fitting, but also a lot more generic.)
Swords & Wizardry & Manga ... oh my.

I wonder how that handicaps a potential German edition of Stone Horizons.
I'd hate it if that would have to use a different cover...

Congratulations, Dan. Great job :)

Well, what I have read shows good progress and a cool idea. So good job so far, again :)

It shouldn't do, given the different markets the two books occupy and the contracts in place.  

Additionally if I get time I'd like to update the Stone Horizons piece to 2012 standards. Nothing major, but it'd hopefully look slightly better painted than when I initially did it.  :)

Thanks!
Hmmm. Not quite sure what they did to the tone and colours, but hey, that's all out of my hands.

Yeah - they really upped the saturation, didn't they?
