History...And That (update)

The group's next anthology, the historian-bating 'History...And That', is nearing completion. So far, we have around half the submissions, with the tardier members handing in by next Thursday. So if you're one of those late-comers - get to it!

In the book so far are tales of war, love, murder, insanity, exploration and scientific discovery. Plus there's promise of immense battles and tales from before and beyond history to come. In the meantime, here's a peek at the cover, a re-mix by Andy Waugh of Christian Kerr's amazing line-art submission...

Keep checking the blog for further news and tidbits about the anthology and it's subsequent launch.

That is stunning. A really excellent job on selecting the colours to compliment the already amazing design. Real eye catcher.

I can't wait to see it in print! :D

lovely - i thought the original was amazing too, though, so it'd be great to see a version of that too!

Thanks guys.

Yeah Mike, the idea was to do a version that was in keeping with the spirit of Christian's submission, but different enough so as to both function as a colourful cover and allow Christian's original piece to be in the anthology as normal without just repeating the same page twice.
