Help make a cover for my fan story?

Hello all. My name is Robert Gresham and I would love it if a fan artist here can help me by creating a cover for my Bond inspired, sword & sorcery short story, "The Mohrg with the Golden Tongue." Over at Pathfinderchronicler.net I, and other fantasy fiction fans, create stories based on Paizo publishing's Golarion campaign setting, and all of my stories feature a Bond inspired character named..ahem..Purvis Wade.

Last year an artist here at MI6 helped me by creating a cover for my serial novel, "From Oppara with Love" (here:http://www.pathfinderchronicler.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/FOWL.jpg) and I was hoping to continue that tradition.

This what a Mohrg looks like: http://gaming.icrontic.com/files/2010/07/mohrg.jpg if you didn't already know.

This short story will be featured in Pathfinder Chronicler Anthology 2 (here is a link to Book 1: http://paizo.com/store/downloads/paizoFansUnited/v5748btpy8lcz&source=search), which will be produced and given away for free at Paizo Con next summer. It will also run on the Pathfinderchronicler.net website with the art. This is a great way to get your art seen by a few more fans and only a Bond fan, in my opinion, can capture the look a Bond themed story should have.

Thank you in advance for considering this project.

    Well, this thread has been here nearly a year. I'm wondering if any new artists might be willing to step up.

    My friend Purvis_Wade. I can make the art for you. I have considerable experience creating fdan posters using photoshop and assorted applications. If you request interest I can post some of my past artworks for you to examine.

    Great job! Thank you for doing that, because there is no way @Purvis_Wade was going with the one @Christartos made. =))

    A mess is the best way I could describe it, and I am being very generous.

    @Sammm04, there was another thread created by @Purvis_Wade asking for a cover, and that is the one that @Christartos posted in. The only problem is that, as usual, the poster he posted was deleted. SHOCKER! It had nothing to do with this book anyway. It had Dan on it in a wig, and a whole mess of text and other pictures.

    Oh, so it wasn't Bond delivering the Sermon on the Mount then.

    Glad you like it, 0Brady.

    Yeah, it was a big mess. It was probably one of his old posters with a mohrg plastered in the corner.

    That moment when you realize that you spell "tongue" wrong.
    FIXED

    If you delete non offensive posts it makes the thread very confusing for me and readers alike. Here is the cover art i made let let the person who wants it decide shall we? That seems fair...

    Yeah, we know, because you, @Pierceuhhh and @Christartos SAY THAT EVERY SINGLE FLIPPING DAY, AND BECAUSE YOU ARE THE SAME USER! IFM, folks. Let's eradicate this fool.

    By the way, @Purvis_Wade: what does this Purvis Wade character look like? A nice idea of his description and background would be helpful. :)

    Wow. I was unaware of the Christartos problem. I see from his cover what many of you mean. AJB 007....GREAT!!! I love it! I will be using that for sure.
    For the stories, I give him a vague description, close to the Fleming bond. He has black hair, icy blue eyes, and wears Taldoran fashion. "Taldor" is suppossed to be early French renaissance mixed with a decadent Roman style. I think pompus noble-type. Taldor colors are blue and green, with a propensity toward white lion motif's.

    Oh, And Taldorans, are a tanned people.

    Then why dont u use my arts? it cas the perfect fashion...pompous and ceremony..only i took attention to detail AJB007's is just a black image took 30 seconds...

    Because my art doesn't look like burning horse dung (sorry mods if I'm breaking any rules here). All you did was plaster a mohrg on an art work you made earlier, so 30 seconds is something you would know, wouldn't you, Christartos?

    Also, thank you Pervis_Wade for choosing my cover.

    No, you can post as often as you like. Though there is no need to make four posts in a thread in a row. If no one has responded to the topic in question, and you want to add to it, simply edit your post.
    It's quite simple really.

    His cover actually had relevancy to the story @Purvis_Wade wrote, while yours was a random mess (as usual) that had no connection to the story besides the badly posted mohrg in the corner.
