The people on the cover of Arms Companion?

[FrozenNorth]

Greetings, a question regarding the cover painting of Arms Companion and Grey Worlds (1/93): can anyone tell if the warriors depicted here are from a known Shadow World culture?

I have a vague feeling that I've seen a larger version of that great Angus McBride painting, showing some of the folks that are being attacked by the feathered warriors, but I might have just imagined it. At least I can't find such an image anywhere.

See the cover of the fantasy miniatures game 'Bladestorm'.

Yes, Hurin is right. It shows a skirmish in the Warring Holds: Rukon vs. Cavan. The feathered warriors are from Cavan.

Indeed! That's the image I had seen, probably a very long time ago. Thank you, much appreciated.

That cover was gorgeous and very evocative. I was subsequently very disappointed by the interior art

I agree, MisterK, the interior art is mainly, at least, experimental. However, cover, maps (can be downloaded from the vault section of this forum), to some part the color guidebook (I think there was a downloadable copy somewhere, too), and the miniatures (of e.g. Sercathu) are great. From my point of view they have done it properly: everything visible on the table is appealing
