I think you got the hidden creature plenty subtle. The eye is drawn to the bright red tiefling. Only later do you see the two-headed dog.

Peaceful day at the beach until a dragon turtle comes out of the water. Sure the original cover didn't have a dragon turtle coming on the beach but I wanted to draw a dragon turtle. You might recognize elements of the cover used in my DMGuild's title Dragon Turtle of Stormwreck Isle. The nice thing about putting things on different layers is that I can remix the image. Granted the scale in this image is very different. Maybe this is when the dragon turtle is grown up.

Want a nice wintery with a woman and her pet? How about this warforged and her owlbear? Don't touch the owlbear cub or she will cut you. Original cover had a human and no owlbear cub.

This one I've held off on posting until Wildspace Magazine 3 was out. Wildspace Magazine is a Spelljammer fanzine. A contributor asked for a giff, rastipede, and xixchil. I had a female giff but decided to draw a new one. Rather than distract from my Dragon magazine cover project I looked for a cover I could place the trio on. The cover doesn't evoke the same feel as the original since you probably spend more time looking at the characters instead of the sword.

I mean, the sword is still bad-ass and covered in yellow energy!
The only thing missing is that the ... umm... thri-kreen (which one was that in Spelljammer?) should be using a stick to poke at the sword, like the shirtless guy in Elmore's painting. Because only a foolish adventurer would dare touch a glowing magic item with bare hands. Er, claws? Appendages. We'll go with that.

It is a xixchil. They are matis people like thri-kreen but perform surgical changes to their body.I mean, the sword is still bad-ass and covered in yellow energy!

Yeah probably should have added the stick. However there are foolish adventurers at least for a short time.

For this cover, I replaced the monster with an eye of the deep. If you have seen my other images you will know I am a fan of beholders. The sailor was replaced with a minotaur. I tend to think of them as sailors due to Dragonlance.

All 100 Dragon magazine covers are done. I recently posted the complete list on the kickstarter. Here it is if you are interested:
58, 92, 81, 83, 55, 76, 78, 80, 175, 32, 62, 106, 136, 47, 41, 59, 9, 79, 122, 73, 90, 97, 54, 66, 174, 250, 91, 109, 131, 142, 173, 190, 183, 156, 135, 84, 68, 213, 126, 10, 132, 239, 143, 151, 209, 210, 137, 148, 52, 42, 258, 99, 145, 168, 172, 125, 147, 158, 120, 40, 18, 49, 150, 71, 105, 89, 12, 88, 139, 240, 157, 130, 2, 155, 167, 35, 163, 200, 117, 1, 179, 165, 96, 134, 108, 133, 75, 72, 37, 129, 138, 188, 182, 94, 24, 166, 65, 221, 152, 149
I believe I was asked for #261 on this forum. Unfortunately I didn't really have any idea what I wanted to do differently so I didn't do that one.

These are fantastic. Well, well done.

How about a cover set in Greyhawk 2000, the technologically advanced version of Greyhawk? What are the derro hiding in the sewers? Dwarves are replaced with derro. Instead of putting the chest in a well, they are putting it into the sewers.
