Description
A cover I did for this trade paperback novel~ It's a remake of an old novel I believeThe Anubis Murders (Trade Paperback)
Author: Gary Gygax
"Gary Gygax, father of fantasy roleplaying and the co-creator of the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game, weaves a fantastic tale of warring wizards that spans the world from the pyramids of ancient Egypt to the mist-shrouded towns of medieval England.
Someone is murdering the worldβs most powerful sorcerers, and the trail of blood leads straight to Anubis, the solemn god known by most as the Master of Jackals. Can Magister Setne Inhetep, personal philosopher-wizard to the Pharaoh, reach the distant kingdom of Avillonia and put an end to the Anubis Murders, or will he be claimed as the latest victim?"

Hi, I like very much how you've portrayed Anubis here.
Would you mind if I use it as a cover picture of my track? named "Anubis" obviously..
I do not intend to make any money from the track.. it's only for fun.
But the thing is it really assimilates with the mood and atmosphere of the track.
So what do you reckon?

I owned and read the original, ages ago. I'm pretty sure your cover is more menacing than the original was!

I've seen this pic before and I totally love it! Anubis having blood on his hands should be a normal thing for the Jackal God of the dead!

This has got to be one of my favorite pieces ever on dA. I just love the subtle hieroglyphs in the background, and the drama in the shadowing. It appeals to the part of me that hoards books on Egyptology.

Leave it to the late, great Gary Gygax to think of an awesome twist on Anubis. It's very nice to see that we can leave it to you to bring that twist to a visible artistic form. This is easily one of the best depictions of Anubis I've seen, and it fits very well with the subject matter. I love how the body blends into and out of the background, and especially like the effect you achieved with the hands and arms disappearing from sight only to be revealed by blood. Incredibly dynamic.

would you be willing to let a metal band use this for band merch?

Wonderfully realistic and solemn rendering of the god, and the book sounds cool too.

Love the detail on the hands, not only the blood, the darkness covering them makes it perfect!
Great Work!

Hey, my book club is making book trailers for our local library, and I was hoping it would be okay if I used your image to represent the character Mr. Jacquel in Neil Gaiman's "American Gods"? You'd get full accreditation, and any other terms you'd like to set are fine by me. Thanks!

Outstanding Deviation! As Captain-Varro said, this is one of the best artworks of Anubis i've seen.
I don't like the story though, Anubis is no killer, but anyway, I praise your skill! Fav+ of course
