Hello Everyone! Since several of you have requested I share what I have in terms of art, I thought it would be appropriate to share some of the concept pieces we've been working on with a few people. Obviously, Most of it is AI generated, but with heavy editing for accuracy from an artist for maximum immersion! I hope you all enjoy this little surprise post, and take some time to get to know what the world looks like and what some of the characters look like.
First up is a fairly detailed map of Eleutheros that shows all the major cities and provinces that are relevant at this point in the story. (This is long overdue, I know. And I’m sorry.) It consists of all the clans within the kingdom and should be a good guide for anyone looking to orient themselves while the story proceeds.

This is the fabled city of Vul De Rah. Complete with the Palace atop a hill in the center of the city, as well as the Dome arena in the Regios area called the “Glade” This was generated via AI, but is pretty spot on as far as the overall look and feel of the city.

Next up is Katrina. This picture might be a bit too beautified, but it’s nearly exact to the original concept art for her. She’s sporting her black squire's cloak, and wearing the bone breastplate of the Dae made Rug’ia bones. (The Material is harder than steel, and a fraction of the weight.)
The second Picture is her AI version, which is more photo realistic. I think it’s pretty close to the original art too.

On to Robert, the focus of copious amounts of love or hate. Hate him or love him, here he is in all his glory, wearing his Royal Rexunii cloak and armor. Again, he’s a bit too handsome, but it’s very close to the original art. There isn’t another picture of Robert at the moment, but we’re working on it.

To round off the three main human characters, we have Daniel. This was actually the original cover on Royal road that was used. AI assisted of course, but it depicts his battle at the end of book 1 during the siege of Vul De Rah. Daniel is in battle, splattered with the blue blood of his Dae foes. It was heavily edited by an Artist to make it more accurate to his concept art for the scene.
The second picture is his full AI version. Pretty accurate, save the longer hair.

Finally, we have Avria. The now ‘warrior princess’ of Lokkon. The first picture is her concept art piece. It shows her in her battle attire.
The second picture is a more straightforward depiction of her. This is completely AI, with no edits at all, but I feel it accurately depicts her fierce nature and beauty. It’s very close to what her concept art looks like.

Yes we also have a picture of our good ol pal Oros of house Ignos. (RIP Oros) This is one of the first pieces we made (Back when he was alive) and it holds a special place in my heart.

To finish everything off, we have a couple AI images of what the warriors look like.
Lokkadonian warrior

Rexunii warrior (Accurate to the story, their helmets are different, and they look a little rougher around the edges.)

That’s all we have for now! I hope you all enjoyed this visual delve into Tales of Eleutheros. Stay tuned for more!
