I won't be buying this because I don't have a gramophone nor the space to house one.

But the artwork! I'm afraid the Celestial mods (pun intended) have put the wrong sample picture on the website's front page. So most of you guys will be seeing this https://www.celestialheavens.com/module ... wspro2.jpg

which is a cutesy, Japananime like picture. And which caused me to think less highly of Magdalena Katanska's work.

Her work on Artstation is actually jaw droppingly good. Literally so, because my jaw dropped and I was staring at the pictures with my mouth open.

See for yourself. The best ever pictures of a Phoenix, a Medusa, a Bone Dragon, Gold Dragon, Green Dragon, Black Dragon, Titan, Behemoth, Griffin, Hydra, Archangel and Devil ever.

It is hard to believe Ubisoft arranged for this. Or did they?
