I have a request..I am trying to find out who the artist is on this piece from Wolves of the Calla, but can't.

Does anyone recognize it?

Ditto... I just searched through the first thirty something pages of google image search. I'll let you know if I find anything.

I have searched, google, yahoo, ask.com and can't find out who it is.


We got it from a Swedish publisher looking for permission to use it for a cover. But we can't give permission for something we don't own, so we are trying to find out WHO owns it! LOL

I have been looking for HOURS!

I've been searching Russian (cyrillic) part of the Internet - no luck so far, either

stupid people, I wonder where they found it? I think I will have Robert ask and search backwards from there.

It is pretty, isn't it?!?!?

I think your right Dag, I could swear I remember this being a peice of fan art.

Lilja (of Liljas library) posted that picture on his Swedish forum, it looks like it's going to be the cover of DT5 over here. I don't know if you can see this page (http://foljeslagarna.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=728) without being logged in.. but it's basically just the picture with letters on it :P and Lilja's post translates to something like this: The cover is out now. It's not the American one as expected, but the Norwegian one. Looks pretty good if you ask me.

He posted this on April 8.

It's not much, but maybe there's a lead? I tried googling both the Swedish and Norwegian names of the book, but I didn't find anything. Maybe because I'm not a very good googler. :unsure: Good luck! :)

That's the best piece of info we have had so far, thanks jos.

And I can see the pic just fine by clicking the link so guests must be good to go.

Great for artwork in the book, but as the cover? It gives too much away about the look of the wolves.

Not really CK.

Neither the horses or wolves look robotic, and you can't see the radar dish on top of the heads. The sabers and sneetches, ehh...

I didn't say anything about giving away the fact that they are robots, just give away what they look like. Also, if you look closely at the main horse it doeslook robotic, there is a big gear indicated on its leg.

Do you think its more revealing than the picture that's already in the book, that wolf gets hit by a Riza

Mystery has been solved!

The artist is Steve Stone and he produced this piece for the Japanese edition! Link to his site: http://www.nexus-dna.demon.co.uk/main_index.html

Thanks so much to all who helped.

I will leave this open and close it at the end of the day today.

This gentleman has some amazing stuff. I really like it. Couldn't find the Wolves artwork anywhere on his site though..

We know. They are being left on purpose so the system Matt is trying for spam can be tested. :)
