"The Lords of Waterdeep are a conclave that rules the ancient city through all means possible - their actions shaping it for both good and ill..."
I was asked to place three different, and iconic, 'Lords' upon the box cover. I went for a degree of symmetry, including the dark robes alongside the light armour, whilst also adopting a low viewpoint to imbue the figures with menace and authority. the sun helps create both a focal point, and dramatic lighting, an effect augmented by the clouds.

Awesome acrylic work. So happy to see that commercial fantasy work is still being done traditionally.

This looks pretty cool.
I think it has the right amount of details, focusing on the face of the lords.
The woman on the right, is that a hairpin she use?

Gorgeous! Excellent use of lighting as usual. The chick on the right, whom I assume is a Dark Elf, her face bothers me a little. It's small... not sure how else to describe it.

I love the effect of the sun behind the castle. It actually makes me squint a little!

Oh nice, I think that's Khelben Blackstaff on the left. This picture just screams "don't mess with these guys".

Nice work, especially on the main character's armour. Get a slight Jeremy Irons vibe off him...

its amazing, though the womans left hand looks so funny. I know it was intended to look 'far away' but it just looks silly XD

Breathtaking amount of details! And the lighting adds so much impact, everything looks so glorious! I just don't understand why a very European-looking castle is surrounded by Middle Eastern-looking towers and domes but I guess that's a freedom fantasy painting allows!

It followed existing designs for the city.
Thanks
