Well, I’m not going to lie. This isn’t what I was looking for when I did the commission. But one of the downfalls of the person I use is that it is a once an done process (justifies his cheap price). The image doesn’t affect “Under the Horn” at all, but it may affect the follow-up 2-page adventure “Into the Horn” that I’ve just started outlining.
Thoughts?
As for “Under the Horn”. I may be done tonight/tomorrow depending on whether or not my wife takes an extra shift at the hospital.

What were you looking for?
There's something really cool about actual art instead of all the cyber photo-masturbation-shop you get with digital effects.
What notes did you give the artist prior? Did he provide you with a sketch before diving in? Acrylic, I assume? Also, I'd be interested in knowing the price. Although, I understand if you'd rather not say.
More of a small fantasy village instead of the glowing skyscapers. I have re-written a small part of the adventure to reflect the cover. I think it may work out for the best in the end as a slight Sci-Fantasy twist to the entire series might be fun.
No sketch or thumbnail unfortunately. From what I told him: " A giant horn/tusk with a full moon partially obsured behind it. Below the horn, in its shadow, is a small fantasy town. If you can I would like the POV to be from the street of the town, looking up toward the horn.
The price was $25.00. A little more than the previous Lighthouse piece for "Lights over Innsfjord".
