On a scale of 1 (awful) to 10 (excellent), rate the cover art for the new Vampire Counts codex for Warhammer:

5, I think it is the weakest of the 4 versions. The Black/Green 2nd version was the best. |

3. Garish and poorly drawn, by past standards. I do wish GW would grow out of their Red&Blue phase. |

2=low budget comic book quality…the subject is centered in the frame with very little dynamic tension created, there is a minimum of action, the lighting is sterile at best, if it were not for the semi realistic depiction of the subject it would barely classify as art…and I have a pretty loose definition of art. |

It loks like here was a sale on blue and red ink. Wnat's a "meh"? 5? Maybe "less than meh". Make it a 3.
"Low budget comic book quality" indeed. |

lets just go straight to 1… this is weak sauce. |

3ish
The vampire Counts stuff in general seems garish… yet clunky IMO. |

I give it 1.5 disinterested shrugs,
but then I've never been too fond of cyan vampires |

Sorry boys, you are obviously all wrong, that right there is an 8
or 9, no seriously…….. Regards Jim

5 at most.
But I stopped liking GW stuff, art comprised, some time ago while I still love some of their older stuff (maybe I'm simply old and everything was better in the past). Luciano PS: wifey says "2", it reminds her of a school project. |

I'd give it a 5 for a comic book by an unknown, but from Games Workshop, and their army book at that (not just one of many internal bits of art) I'd give it a 3 at best. Doesn't come remotely close to capturing the look and feel of a Vampire Counts army. |

1. They're able to produce much better and more evocative artwork, and they should, especially for the cover of an army book. Nothing about that says "army." |

I'd have to go with The Count and rate it "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!" |

I like the bats so it gets a 2 for them but that's it. |

Based upon previous cover art and industry/consumer expectations: C- |
