Description Here's the cover I made for Battletech's Combat Manual Kurita a while ago.

Awesome work! This really looks like you put a lot of effort into it. Beautiful composition and the explosions are beautiful. And the dust clouds are also impeccable.

It was definitely a lot of work. Matte painting / textures helped with the smoke
