Forgotten Futures X cover

This is what I've ended up with as the Tooth and Claw RPG cover; I'll use the same illustration as background for the one or three volume covers.

I've managed to avoid using the word World three times on the cover, just once in "World Fantasy Award." It prints well, it looks good and is legible at a distance or when it's reduced in size, none of the background seems to be particularly obtrusive, and it's more interesting than any of the "lots of coins all the same" ideas I previously tried.

In short, I think that this one is the keeper.



Click to enlarge. Click twice for the largest version I've transferred, about 60% of full page size.

The icon is still the early version, I'll replace it eventually.

Looks pretty darn spiffy to me!

I like the variety of coins.

It's a lot better than all of them the same.

It really stands out. What's the back cover look like?

Not sure yet, probably one of Sue's dragon pictures fairly large plus text.

I love it. Wording is great, and the variety of coins really makes the cover. Nice work, matey!

Thanks for all your criticism of the earlier versions, it was very helpful.
