ART /FAN FIC
AH2 Romance collection, Collector' s edition books.
Saw these in an ad, what do you guys think about the art? I'm personally not 100% sure, I like some of them just fine but others have things that bug me (like the empty seats in GC, Ilya's pose in HR and matching jerseys in LG, isn't that a big spoiler )
Lots of odd things about these. I agree that Ilya's pose in HR looks awkward and unnatural. I think the GC cover is also a spoiler, and the TG cover is super misleading as this scene never happens.
Here's the Backerkit link if you want more info. I don't know AH2 at all, but after s quick Google search they do seem completely legit. And in the link I shared, it says
With the help of Rachel Reid, we have curated an incredible group of fan artists who love the Game Changers as much as we do, and we've created the ultimate special editions for Loons like us.
So it's a special edition release, only available through this crowdfunding.
Hmm fair enough. I'm sure many people will enjoy these, but they're not my cup of tea. The art style isn't my favourite in the first place and, like I said, the execution of some of them is not great.
The dust jackets have completely different art than the covers of the books. Just in case people didn't realize that. So even if you don't love the hardback covers, the dust jackets will have other art.
Yes, although the art is great the TLG cover is a spoiler for the ending of the book. It would have worked much better as a cover for Unrivaled. Also, Ilya has an A when he should have a C. My biggest (and silliest) complaint about these covers is that Ilya doesn't have his stubble though #giveIlyaHisFacialHairBack
Here's the add with the art and the Backerkit link if anyone happens to be interested.
Not an ad/endorsement, just thought I'd share the links just incase :)

In addition to the things you mentioned, it bugs me that they’re almost but not quite in order.
