Well the Cover Looks Good, It reminds me of an old D&D Cover from the '79 gameset but that was indoors...Wizard and Fighter knee deep in water opposite a Dragon...Slightly Nostalgic.
Any other Comments?


Okay... How about less exposed flesh? Don't get me wrong I'd be fine with it going the other way with. Say two characters (male and female) who could have been the leads in D&D: Bay Watch Edition. However a cover helps sets the tone for a role playing game.

While the cover is up to Paizo I would dearly love to see Seelah and Ezren from Pathfinder #7 as the cover character's taking on a Rune Giant. Or perhaps Seelah and Valeros.


Keep in mind that the current cover is nothing more than re-used art from the first AP; it's very unlikely that particular image will be used for the final product. I imagine it will feature art specifically requested for the project.

Indeed.


Any chance we can get Elmore to do the cover =)

Tantalizing.

Will Beta get its own special cover, too? That would rock.


I would guess beta will be mostly reused art as well but the cover might be new.After every thing is in good shape is when the new art starts to be put to paper I would guess.

I found the artwork to be nice, largely because I assumed that there would be no artwork, it being a playtest and all.

The Beta will use artwork that we already own as a way to keep the costs down so we can give everyone a huge book at a fraction of the cost it would normally be if we had a bunch of new artwork.
