BodomGaiden · December 30th, 2010, 01:40 AM

BodomGaiden · December 30th, 2010, 01:49 AM

well it is man, look at his previous work on the Master of Illusion album. I also think Steve or someone said the Felipe was working on the Blood Alliance artwork. so check out his website. didnt mean to burst youre bubble. http://finalfrontier.thunderblast.net/

Indestructible · December 30th, 2010, 01:53 AM

I didn't mean that you burst my bubble, the question was just directed at steve and not at you man.

BodomGaiden · December 30th, 2010, 02:00 AM

kk, understood. well, its cool that we get to see modern civilization on the cover of a PQ album for the first time.

Fine, then, is it really Felipe Machado like he said?

Shredlamode · December 30th, 2010, 03:09 AM

Yes dude it's Felipe, he's done a great job!

ohh, nice.

The character in the black cloak(near the portal thing) looks similar to the one in the master of illusion artwork, so it's probably the same character? Both were done by Felipe anyway.

Symphony · December 30th, 2010, 04:18 AM

It is indeed the same character......and could well become the band mascot in the future!

That'd be amazing man! But you know, it kinda looks like you actually. Especially on the master of illusion artwork, and particularly the face and hairstyle which is more or less identical to yours.

It probably wasn't intended to be you, but yeah, still.

moleSG · December 30th, 2010, 06:28 AM

Ooh, excellent!
Perhaps because of the name, I was expecting something different, perhaps more historical, but I think that works really well! Love it!

Cronopio · December 30th, 2010, 08:26 AM

That artwork is excellent. Am I the only one getting Stargate vibes?

fraserwatt1990 · December 30th, 2010, 08:33 AM

That. is AMAZING.

I know they say not to judge a book by it's cover, but this raises my hopes for this album even more!

yeah thats exactly what I was thinking - very Stargate-esque!

Symphony · December 30th, 2010, 08:58 AM

Great to hear your feedback guys.....and glad you approve!

armeckthefirst · December 30th, 2010, 09:26 AM

this looks awesome! i think the more modern look is really cool! totally stoked for this album.. i may even buy the cd (rather than buy the mp3's) this looks epic!

Indestructible · December 30th, 2010, 03:23 PM

I'm gonna get the album digitally I guess, importing would be troublesome.

The artwork makes me even more excited for it now though. I was already excited, but now even more.

Gibbon · December 30th, 2010, 03:28 PM

This is truly AMAZING! Great job on the cover, not long till release now

My new screensaver

It's already my screensaver + desktop background

Dan W · December 31st, 2010, 06:23 AM

Looks fantastic, although I have to say I was expecting more red (since the album title mentions Blood)

Symphony · December 31st, 2010, 06:44 AM

Wait till you see the rest of the booklet.....definitely more red. I kind of felt blood splattered everywhere would be a little too obvious......the blood idea here is more "blood brothers" than "bloodshed" :-)
