Cary Nord - Book of Death Covers Recognition Thread

Post by possumgrease »

I realize this is probably old news for most, but Cary Nord is really putting together some awesome covers for Book of Death.

If anyone wants to send me the original artwork for #2, I won't object.

#1 is pretty cool too.

and I like the Overstreet cover (although not BOD related):

I'm pretty sure that was available for purchase at NY Special Edition.

Woody
Ninjak
Saana
Aric
Armstrong
Kris
and a lot of "I'm not sure"

All those Nord covers are so amazingly good. I was just commenting on a tweet by Dinesh about them the other day. Let me see if I can dig up a snap shot...

Yes, I believe he is doing his own digital colouring on these (and many others lately, such as the Imperium varaiants as well). Great stuff. :thumb:
