    New cover art for How the Tantabus Parses Sleep

    Urban Wilds art commission (Content warning: blood)

    A while ago, I commissioned Moonatik for some Urban Wilds art, and I think it turned out great. But fair warning: it's pretty bloody, taking place shortly after Amanita kills her two attackers, so only open this post if you're okay with that. (I checked the site's rules, and it fits in the postable "borderline" category".) Got that? Good.

    New Hinterlands sequel

    I've been working on another sequel to Hinterlands for over a year, and it's finally ready to be published! Check out the continuing adventures of our hapless necromancer and her bounty hunter friend in the great white north:

    TDeath Valley
    Hostile lands. Frigid valleys. Backwater villages. Shadowy forests. Vicious beasts. Gloomy mines. Strange magics. And the nicest pony for miles is a necromancer. A royal investigation of tainted ley lines uncovers dark secrets in the Frozen North.

    Hinterlands / Urban Wilds fanart

    Recently, Moonatik decided that Hinterlands and Urban Wilds were somehow good enough to merit fanart and drew a picture of Bitterroot and Amanita. I think it's neat!

New cover art for How the Tantabus Parses Sleep · 2:53pm May 10th

Recently, I decided to commission some new cover art for How the Tantabus Parses Sleep, and I think Harwick did an excellent job of it. I did some resizing and added some text for the actual cover, but I'd be remiss to not show the full version from here:

I think it's pretty great. All of Harwick's art is!

It really is impressive how well he captured the concept of "friendly hole in/into space."

He always does amazing stuff. What a gorgeous piece!

Ooo, that's a beaut.

Please don't hate me for this, but something about her is giving me uncanny valley vibes.

The realistic lighting, anatomy, dark 'skin' and especially those lips make her look like somepony wearing a rubber suit.

Sorry. :rainbowderp:

I dunno, it might help if the lips were removed entirely and the eyes were a little less defined so that she looks more like a hole in space rather than a somewhat three-dimensional pony. Like the rest of her mane and tail. Those look absolutely fantastic.

Agree. She's far too glossy, I think.

Beautiful art!
