Salamander gets a new cover!
You heard it right, folks! After a bit of umming and ahhing by the BL powers that be, Salamander has a new cover.
This is not to detract from the great work that Wayne England did on the previous version - it was just that when it was scaled down, it didn't quite show off the art to its fullest potential.
Instead of losing the piece completely, it'll be used in a top secret project that I cannot speak about upon pain of excrutiation by the Emperor's Inquisition. Suffice it to say, it'll be cool.
Back to the new art - it's by a brand new artist never commissioned by BL before (though you will have seen his work on the Dawn of War II game, and, consquently, the novel by the fine chap that is Chris Roberson). He's called Cheoljoo Lee and is simply awesome!
Brothers of Prometheus, feast your eyes on this...
There's an even bigger, slightly more rendered, version available to view on the Black Library blog!
Oh, and here's the full jacket just for the sake of completeness...

Looks absolutely fantastic, and I know the story inside will be even better. Sincere congrats on both counts, mate.
