[hosted] Cover art for an Oriental monster book!

[Klaus]

Hi, y'all!

"Sombras no Oriente" (Shadows in the Orient) is a Lords of Darkness/Monster Manual-style book from Brazilian publisher Editora Viu and the second book in their setting.

This week I posted the cover for this book, which features a vampire samurai battling a BIG demon in a burning castle! Check it out! Then let me know what you guys think!

Oh, I LOVE that monster and the lighting. I like the vampire samurai, too, but his limbs seem a bit wrong; too short, the wrong angle? I'm not sure. It's a wonderful piece, though. You keep getting more and more impressive.

Wow! That's really awesome. The color scheme rocks. I like the red against blue battle. And the detail on both faces is amazing. Good job! Keep it up.

The pieces of samurai armor tend (specially the shoulder guards and the MC Hammer pants) definitely make someone seem short-limbed. Plus he's japanese-like, so he's not tall by any means... I laid out the entire body before adding the armor, and he *still* looks like a midget!

Cool, another oriental monster book would be nice. Particularly in pdf.

I think it is a wonderful image. However, I have two critiques:

1) His left shoulder seems just a tad low on his frame, which may be what caught P-Kitty's eye.
2) The katana looks like it is too short.
