D&D 5E Glory of Giants Alt Cover

[Stormonu]

That is the oddest and most unappealing cover for a 5E book to date.

Has this been revealed yet? I haven't seen it.

Yep, back in May!

Not sure how I feel about the alt cover. My first reaction was not good, after reading some of the comments and taking another look, I find it more interesting. I'll have to see it IRL to decide. I find with some of these alt covers online images don't do them justice. But, so far, I'm leaning towards the standard cover.

The alt covers are embossed rather than printed on plain paper, which means you are not using colour so much as texture in your artwork.

Is it just me, or does Bigby look like a gnome?

Is it just me, or does Bigby look like a gnome?

Yup.

Gossip is he is.

Didn't they make Kwalish a gnome too?

Didn't they make Kwalish a gnome too?

Yep:

Spoiler: Kwalish

I first thought the mage had blue spit coming out of his mouth and then thought it was blue flames on the fire giant.

That is better than my quick first impression of the gnome peeing on the statue.

A quick second closer glance assured me my first impression was incorrect.
