The detail in Gabriel is just amazing. And I can't get over how much like Michael his model looks. IT IS AWESOME.

Yes, they got that Asiatic look to the profiled character, who I assume is Michael from your coment abover. Even the wings look in proportion. This is a cover well worth loving.

That is LOVELY! You've done so well to find Anne Cain - definitely expresses the same things I admire in what I know of this book already ;).

Damn, this makes me, for the first time, wish my e-reader had colour (not so good for reading, but thinking of this in b/w gives me sadface).

Wow! That's gorgeous!!

It is indeed Michael. He's Chinese. :D I'm very happy with the final product.

Innit? I'm so thrilled. Anne is one of the Dreamspinner Press' art department committee as well as an in-house artist, she's done some of my favourite covers in the DSP store. I'm so impressed with what she's done for me. :D

Oh, and I saw this on my flist view and thought of you - call for judges for the 2012 Rainbow Awards. Reading all the books! (Well, not all of them. Some of them. :D)

She really is. I love her work. :D :D Did she do the cover in your icon there?

[identity profile] mickieashling.livejournal.com 2012-02-22 09:37 am (UTC)(link)
She did. It's one of my favorite covers.

That's a nice pair of wings. Although I can't help wondering how he got them through that little hole in his armour :-).

It is pretty gorgeous though.

ALL THE BOOKS!

Well, I've signed up, so it looks like I'm on board as a reader/judge now! Yeah, all 300+ books might melt my brain. I've signed up for 15, but it wouldn't take much for me to read more if it become necessary.

[identity profile] misslj-author.livejournal.com 2012-03-01 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Awesomeness. What genres did you sign up for?

[identity profile] vayshti.livejournal.com 2012-03-01 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I kept it very broad, but asked for 'Alternative Realities' as my 1st preference.

[identity profile] misslj-author.livejournal.com 2012-03-01 02:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh cool. I hope you get some great stuff to judge.

[identity profile] vayshti.livejournal.com 2012-03-01 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hehehe - well, I am a book-whore, so even bad ones will be gratefully read.

Plus you can put it on your literary resume as well.
