(urth) Fuligin in illustration

[Son of Witz]

I'll let this topic rest, but I wanted to share this illustration I found online to the Hungarian Shadow Of the Torturer.

the best, coolest illustration I've come across for this series besides the Pennington Shadow cover. Note the Avern in the lower left of the back cover.

The gauntlets aren't legit, and maybe the sabretache is overlarge, and of cousre, the Fuligin issue is avoided. (though another Caveat is that somewhere in Sword or Citadel he mentions his cloak being 'faded' by that point.) And Terminus Est lacks the carved heads on the quillions

The artist did draw him shirtless though, but shaded the body to deemphasize.
(Does anyone know the artist's name)  I love that there is absolutely nothing 'sci-fi' looking about this illustration.  Great stuff.


alright,
back to AEG with you all.
