HALF-OFF RAGNAROK cover reveal!

Psst. C'mere.

So it's no secret around here that I love, love, love my DAW covers, or that showing them off is one of my true pure joys in life. Aly Fell, who designs the covers for the InCryptid books, has been everything I could have hoped for in a cover artist. He's incredible. Want proof?

Go ahead. Take a peek.

Behold the pretty:

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS OH MY GOD IT'S THE COVER TO HALF-OFF RAGNAROK AND IT'S GORGEOUS!

Alex looks like he's ready for either violence or SCIENCE (they share a lot of letters) and Shelby is just wishing whatever's lurking in the shadows would get on with it and they're perfect and I'm so happy.

Glee.

(As always, I claim full comment amnesty, although I love it when you comment, because I can show my cover artists and make them happy.)

I looked away from the Apple keynote for this. That is how nifty it is.
HUZZAH! GRATS! Can't wait to read it!!!

YES. Marvelous, and you bet your bippy (whether it's sweet or not) that I'll be owning this as soon as that's an option.
Laugh-In flashback!

This is my favorite InCryptid cover to date, I think. :)
I still adore Midnight Blue-Light Special for its accurate portrayal of Sarah, but I really love how this showcases Aly's versatility. Shelby is beautiful, but she's not sexual in this shot.

Hey, lady, nice shoes you've got there. Also, thank you for indexing your handgun until you are ready to fire.

... Is Alex left handed, or is this artistic license?
YES YES THIS.
Oh, those are nice boots. Nice socks, too. Practical and they look like the sort of things outdoorsy people would actually wear.

(Bit annoying that the pocket on Shelby's shirt looks fake, but sadly realistic when it comes to women's clothing. No, really, I would use a breast pocket for things, even if it was just to clip a name-tag, or put the battery-pack of a microphone for a talk. (Yes, this is a long-standing pet peeve of mine).)
I...I use them anyway. And kill the delicate pockets.

Aly Fell kicks ass and takes names captures characters. SO MUCH GOODNESS.
Also SNAKES!
Alex and Shelby look ready to kick ass, and your covers and their artists already do! Awesome!!!
Guns not not pointed at people, functional clothing - this is an awesome cover for urban fantasy.
Lovely! I adore Aly Fell. I've been reading articles on technique that he wrote since...I'm not actually sure when.

She is wearing actual clothing, and sensible shoes. Both his and her fingers' are off the trigger and pointing away from the people.

I'm in love.
Love it!
EEEEEEEEEEE YAY!

Actually, my cleavage looks like that, and I'm not wearing a corset. Pre-childbearing breasts, a push up bra (which I wear because honestly, they're comfortable) and a slight neckline and voila! Cleavage!
