Spellbound Cover Art Making-of Video
The amazingly gifted Todd Lockwood has put up a making-of video for some cover art for Spellbound over on his website. As viewed on his site, it’s very impressive! I wanted to show it off here, but could only reproduce a very compressed version on youtube. It goes by waaaay too fast. Hence the flash-in-the-pan preview below. For the real thing, click on the link above for the view of click here for a page dedicated to the Spellbound artwork.

Very cool. I noticed how he changed the color of the runes, presumably while finding a color that stood out best as you mentioned in your write-up of the art on Tor.com.

you got it. the magical language concerned is bright red in color, but red runes on a coppery dragon…well, doesn’t show up so well (so todd mentioned when i asked him about it). he went with pink at first, which didn’t look so bad-ass, so he adjusted it to something slightly darker. i think he did a great job.
