A trashed Spaceship glistens under a low arctic sun, I’m guessing it’s the arctic though being Sci-fi it could of course be anywhere. Quite an original choice of lighting from Salwowski, a long and heavy shadow cast in the glow of weak winter sunlight.

Just having a wonder around the site (you forgot to email me the url, found it anyway)
Thought it was pretty apt you’d managed to post about a guy that made some of my favourite covers, from my favourite authors books (Iain M Banks) on my birthday.

Hey Adam, haha I recognise the Gravatar
glad you were able to find the site, it’s not the easiest to spell, I probably should of though of an easier to remember URL!
That’s quite a coincidence then! I really like Mark’s work… I probably should post some more soon – this is my favourite though!
