You know it's worth comparing some of the previous covers used for IL-2 variants with that for COD.







They are of a remarkably similar style. If it's not the same artist (and it might be) then you can't deny that there's a distinct theme.

I think the other two are better, especially the Sturmovik - a lot of drama in that picture.

The COD one looks too washed out - not much colour. Don't know what effect the artist was going for with the Spit, but it doesn't work.

His stuff is awesome too. Though if you let him loose on the box art you might risk the pegi rating rising a couple more lol. I'm all for it though .

By the way do you think it is language or gore that has taken the rating up so much higher than old IL-2?

I was wondering about the rating also, maybe its another thing we'll have to wait and see about.

Who knows, maybe there is "ketchup" splattering on the canopies after a head on pass

(i seriously doubt it to be honest, but it's no harm guessing)

Horrible art...

Spitfire's missing spinner, 109's tail struts, how the heck is the 109 burning MID WING, the Heinkels flying West along the coast, where are the pilots? All cloud and sea and land and smoke. And dont the Heinkels seem like they fly above/below of each other? Add the silly crown above the word "of".
