General album artwork appreciation

[Kalata]

Merch design by HammerFall. Hammer High and I think it looks really cool. I would love to see it expanded more, especially with this castle. Great for both album and single cover. The mix of dark, grey and green works very well.

I think Helloween's 2 Reunion albums arts deserve a praise, not only for the style. The artist Eliran Kantor too. I wonder if he does a full art for each band. Kudos. His Testament cover (Titans Of Creation) from a couple of years ago is epic too. Like perfect metal covers, full of colors, imagination, stories, figures and epic looking.

Maiden, take notes. I'm curios to see Eddie in that style.

^ Beautiful stuff, reminds me of John Martin's epic, apocalyptic style.

The Seventh Plague of Egypt:

Destruction of Pompeii and Herculaneum:

Belshazzar's Feast:

His piece The Fallen Angels Entering Pandemonium was used for Angel Witch's debut album.
