I love how I can see this cover, and without reading the title I know exactly which story it is, why the man in shadow is important, and just feel like I am dropped into the context of the story. (Then again, I read the book long before seeing this artwork, so I knew the context already. Not sure how someone who never read it would react)

I'm happy that you like it. People who know the story always recognize the scene ;)
Others love it, even if they don't see what it represents.

Would you mind if I use this in a banner for a fanfiction contest?

Not as part of an entry - just as "this fandom can apply" banner.

another awesome Honor cover, many thanks!
I really like your interpretation of the spaceships in the Honorverse! it's clear that you read the novels and paid attention to the story but at same time you bring your own point of view to questions of design. I think that gives your ships a very welcome dramatic impact. Bravo, is all I can say!

Thanks :)
Yes, i try to add my own ideas to the covers.
But not to much because i must preserve the universe and the atmosphere of the novel.

Have a nice day :)

I like this one! No, wait, I take that back, I love it! I feel the need for a total fan-girl moment, but I won't do a TOTAL moment.
It's Raoul! In little fetus form!
This was my most favorite book, the only thing I found annoying about it, is that I want to know how the alliance of Manticore and Haven worked out and I think you know I could go on ranting about it, but I don't need to waste your time doing that. Thanks for the great artwork!
Question: Who is the person that is behind Honor outlined by the light?
