New album artwork in the making..

[Ulterium Records]

Felipe Machado Franco [Blind Guardian, Rhapsody of Fire, Iced Earth] is working on the artwork for the up-coming Theocracy album. We'll have more news and updates for you all real soon!

 

[RichS]

Pretty cool.

 

[Killerah]

Sweet! He makes some good album art, I'm excited to see what he cranks out for you guys!

 

[labarum]

It better be awesome ( I know it will, the artist is the bomb) cause I'm buying a shirt of it as soon as it comes out!

 

[guitr4God]

Yay! The album must be real!! I was starting to wonder

 

[I Rock 4 God]

If the artwork is as cool as the music, I will faint...

 

[Snert]

Wow, that's good news! This guy created one of my alltime favorite cover arts:

 

[M@RS]

I hope he can make something decent without dragons.

 

[Arnock]

Is this the same guy who did MoS and Theocracy?

 

[FleshAndBloodTheocracy]

Is this the same guy who did MoS and Theocracy?

Those 2 people aren't even the same person....

 

[Arnock]

If I asked, that means I don't know who did the artwork, therefore not knowing that fact.

 

[SeaStorm]

First album artwork = Mattias Noren
Second album artwork = Robert G. Wilson, Jr.
Third album artwork = Felipe Machado Franco

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle

And what is wrong with "dragons"? Or unicorns and rainbows?

"Decent without Dragons" sounds like an awesome band name.

 

[metalgrounds]

It seams that all are geting together!!!! Excelente Compañero!!!!

 

[prometheus7]

Again, what is wrong with dragons, unicorns, rainbows AND CHEESE!?

I'm ...lactose intolerant?

Captain Obvious here:

It's cheese.

As in dragons and other fairy tale creatures are cheesy. They have grown to become kind of the archetypal power metal cover material.

Guy is saying he wants a never been done before custom, state o de art graphic, that doesn't look like every other power metal cover.

 

[Verbum Lux]

I can see it now: "Theocracy is proud to announce the release of their new album.....Dragons for Jesus!"

Okay, maybe not. But it does have a certain ring to it.

Seriously though, this guy is obviously a very talented artist, and I'm looking forward to seeing what he comes up with. Hard to tell too much from the photo, but I'm sure it's going to be good.
