Yet More Art Teasers for Monarchies of God!

Hey all,

The talented and scruffy-haired Pye Parr has produced another blog post about his work on the Monarchies of God; this time, naturally, on the second volume, Century of the Soldier.

Read it here.

While we're at it, Andrew Evans (the CGI artist who created the helmets and weapons on both books) has also set up a blog, including a blow-by-blow description of how 3D rendering is achieved. It's pretty interesting stuff:

Hawkwood and the Kings Post

"How it was done"

So don't say we never do anything nice for you.

Design: Monarchies of God

Our talented designer Simon Parr, who not only works on Solaris and Abaddon books, but also on 2000 AD, has written all about his designs for our upcoming Monarchies of God series. Read all about it on his blog.


Simon imparts some rather revealing things about the design process...

The fur texture is a reference to the werewolves which play a large part of the story, and was made by scanning in a vile luminous pink acrylic cushion that my dog lies on...



Furry pink cushions - no self-respecting SFF designer should ever be without one...
