I am very proud to present the cover illustration for the 2017 edition of Ages of Aenya. A few months ago, I put out a request for artists for this cover. I received many talented and skilled applicants, but in the end I had to pick one.
Zhengyi Yu has been wonderful to work with. He was very attentive to what I needed and more than willing to make changes. If you're looking for a talented illustrator, I highly recommend him! Also, be sure to check out his awesome gallery at Zhengyi Yu
About this piece: Here we find Thelana overlooking Hedonia. The massive pyramid temple of Sargonus eclipses the background. One of the challenges of this piece was to depict our heroine in her natural state without triggering any censors. I wanted her in a normal looking pose, without any comically placed leaves in the way. And it had to be dynamic, to show off her power and fearlessness. She's naked in a city of thousands and yet she does not feel vulnerable! That being said, Zhengyi and I are working on an alternate cover where she'll be draped in her trademark jade cloak (hey, she gets cold sometimes). That way, you can read the adventures of the Ilmar on the subway without getting weird looks!

It's honestly refresing to see nonsexual nudity. Thelana looks badass surveying the city from her perch. Also, that pyramid is beautiful.
