Cover: Gwydion

This issue’s cover is the art that Josh Arklin has given me for the new anthology, Maen Nhw Yma O Hyd, which I talk about elsewhere in this issue. The art comes from a game called WOAD which Josh and some colleagues are creating after a successful Kickstarter campaign last year. One of the stretch goals for our Kickstarter for the book will be to have more of Josh’s art as interior illustrations.

The image shows the sorceror, Gwydion, a character from the Fourth Branch of The Mabinogion. He is shown with a wolf, a deer and a wild boar, which echoes some of the events of the myth. If you want to know more about it, I will be explaining in one of the campaign updates.

As usual, an undorned verson of the art is available below.
