Fan Art: Warded Man and Wood Demon
Posted by Meg
Here is some new fan art from Deviant Art user Rusty87d. A moment in an epic fight scene between the warded man and a wood demon.
I love the composition of the picture, The placement wood demon’s hand (or scary, talon thing) amps up the tension of the scene, reminding me of a movie shot. Awesome job!
My favorite place to read depends on the book and the weather. Mostly, I sit on the sofa in the living room or in my deck chair outside in the garden. During winter time, I cuddle in my bed, under a huge blanket to protect me against the cold and the dark. Or monsters.
As for the demon cylce, it turns out that all three books’ dates of publication in Germany have coincided with my annual long weekend in a spa. So I have best memories of Arlen fighting demons with the soft smell of chlorine and the sound of bubbling water in the background. I can also recommend reading Peter’s book in the sauna, where it’s hot like hell and gloomy like a den. Nevertheless, the story gives lots of cold shivers!
You just should leave your book on the deckchaire when taking a steam bath. Somehow the paper does not appreciate the steam. I had to replace my copy of “The warded man” after I tried that. 😉
Greetings from Leipzig area, Germany, & thank you, Pete, for the wonderful world of demons. Can’t wait for “Dailight War”!
Sorry, I reloaded the page and somehow commented on the wrond article. *flushes*
But… the picture reminds me of a movie scene, too, but I can’t recall of which one. Does anyone have a tip?
The view of the hand reminds me of a shot from Signs when the alien is in the house and the camera pans down to show the alien’s hand right before he squirts gas in the little boy’s face.
Brilliant art, anyway. It’s very eerie.
Rusty does my cover art. He’s great and a great artist. He speaks highly of your book, too, so I’m going to have to check it out.
I love the texture and depth in the trees and the grass, but overall this image is just so evocative! There’s so much going on, for such an apparently simple scene. I loves it, dunni?
