Hello all,

first post here so I hope you'll be nice.

I think many of you are being a bit harsh on the artist because I am sure he was working under severe constraints. It looks very much like a composition that HAD to include certain elements. I can only imagine what the marketing guys told him. The cover must include the Cliffs of Dover as that's what the game is called. It would have to prominently display the RAF roundel and the German cross. It's got have a recognizable Spitfire and a 109 too: Oh and you better include some He111s as well so people will know there are bombers in the game. And don't forget there has to be combat and flames.

I'm not saying it is impossible to create a beautiful work of out under those conditions but it certainly would make things a whole lot more difficult. But as they say, the customer is always right.

Just my two cents.

I admit the colours are a bit dull.

Cheers,
TimTam27
