In the past, as you may well remember, Fotini Designs has done some beautiful and impressive work. For the most recent Cosplay Contest, prizes included some beautifully warded silver necklaces and gold and brass metal bookmarks.
Really special stuff, right? One of our entrants was so excited he sent in pictures of his girlfriend wearing the necklace.

Back in August, Peat received a package in the mail containing the subway posters from the U.K. Campaign “Read Brett Yet?” Thinking it was just the subway posters that were too big to put the walls of his office, he put off opening it for three months until I started as Peat’s assistant. We opened the package, hoping the posters would be a manageable size, but instead we discovered a Box of Wonders: fantasy books, subway posters of your lastest book and a David Gemmell Legend Award for Fantasy.
Unwrapping!
I wonder what could be in here?
Mini-Snaga!
But wait … there’s more?
A Game of Thrones in Hardcover
The posters are, in fact, giant, so we held off on unfurling them.
This is the design of the U.K.’s “Read Brett Yet?” campaign.
And here is the poster in its natural habitat, the London Underground.
And, purely for your enjoyment, here is Cassie with the mini-snaga looking like she’s going to wreak some major havoc.

Here it is, folks. The first entry for the Fan Art Contest … Maria’s incredible tattoo of Arlen and one-arm.
Hello 🙂
Here is my entry to the new contest. This picture shows my leg with a tattoo about Arlen and one-arm; like on the french cover of The Painted Man. It is still unfinished; the warding and some extras are still missing … it will be finished in January.
Maria has gone above and beyond the call of duty with this one, taking after Arlen and using ink and needles on her own skin. Personally, I adore the French cover for The Warded Man; it depicts the scene of Arlen and One-Arm so well. I can’t think of a better choice for a tattoo!

Bragelonne, the French publisher for The Warded Man and The Desert Spear, just released a brand new cover for the paperback version of L’Homme Rune also known as The Warded Man. Check it out!
In other news from France, Nathalie, a friend of the production desginer at Bragelonne, had the idea to make a warded knitting pattern … as a coffee cozy!

In preparation for the Fan Art Contest, Peat sent me a vast treasure trove of fan art that’s come in over the last few months. Way too much for him to post while trying to keep up with The Daylight War, so it falls to me to share these fantastic pieces with you. The following were submitted through the Forum, and they are not contest entires. A lot of nifty stuff goes on over there. So go on and join the conversation.
These two beautiful maps, done by Marken, detailing the land of Thesa. Amazing work! Marken is also behind the incredible project of the Thesan Wiki. I would definitely recommend checking it out.
Below (and the fiery one at the top of the post) are beautifully rendered warded art by Morgrad. I am blown away by the detail and the amount of work that must have gone into these projects.
I am very much inspired by these two awesome artists. I am hoping they’ve inspired you guys too. Don’t forget to submit your own fan art to our latest contest by 11:59pm on December 31, 2011. For more details, check out the rules here.
