Loving that box art. Can't wait for my order to arrive.

I've never seen that book before. The cover is absolutely stunning. Decided to check out your site and I am really digging your work.

Speaking of the book. Anyone know the best way to obtain one?

Thank you Enigmatic, kind of you to say.
The book is currently sold out (it sold out in 6 hours) on Amazon Japan but I believe that more are being printed.

Very cool cover, but does his hand look a bit... small? Almost gives him a grown up toddler look

Cheers Utri.

Deckards hand is the correct size but the perception might come from the fact that the fingers are curled away under the trigger guard making them foreshortened and this is probably contributing to how you're seeing it.

I did wrestle with making it bigger (a hero's hand and to push the perspective) but it was a fine balance that was needed to fit everything into the cover space, allow for the text overlay (they didn't give me a definitive placement of the proposed text - only an estimation based on an existing cover) and not to have the blaster - which needed to be seen as a whole - too big and imposing.

Cheers for the great question.
