Looking good so far. On the season 2 cover between Oz and Cordelia it looks like you have an oddity? Looks like a leftover from Buffy's arm or something. I can't tell, it's a big white thing Season 4 looks to be starting off ok. Is that the best Faith pic you can get for 3 & 4? Everyone has solemn firm looks on their faces and she has a "come get me I'm damn sexy" over posed look. It looks out of place IMO.

The "oddity" you're referring to is the space between Oz's torso and arm (hence why you see it on S2 and S3 and not with Snyder on S1). You're seeing the background behind Oz. Without making Oz fatter than he is or giving Cordelia breast enhancement to cover it, I'm really not sure how to fix this little bug...? Do you have any ideas?

EDIT: I see what you mean... I was looking in the wrong spot... the big white spot you're referring to is Drusilla's pasty white arm...

As for Faith, I can look for a better pic... maybe something from Season 7... I thought about that a while ago but never got around to changing it. Thanks for the reminder!

Not that oddity, but since you mentioned it... The white space near Buffyster's hair. I don't mind a breast enhancement for Cordelia I did a little looking around on Google for a decent pic of Faith, there's a few of Eliza Dushku that look decent, but most are from Dollhouse or other roles. Some decent ones:

The white space by Buffy's hair is Drusilla's arm...

Thanks for the Eliza pics, but I'd rather not use "non-Buffy" images on this cover. I'm kind of OCD like that... I don't even want a pic from an Angel episode, even though she's still playing Faith (because I may end up doing Angel covers and would want to use the Faith pics there). I'm searching for a better pic, but the most common hi-res one is the one that I'm already using...

Here's some low-res ones I found... anybody have better versions of them? (I think the first one below would be the best fit for these covers).

They're looking great so far, and I'm really diggin' the 4th season's color scheme! You might make me watch this show, I've heard great stuff about it!

BTW, will you be tackling the 92' movie as well?

Great job with the colors! I have nothing to add so far, keep going

The only issues I have with the covers so far is Willow. She didn't have short hair until season four. It'd be nice if you could use a good shot of nerdy schoolgirl Willow for seasons 1-3.

Sorry, but the way I'm doing this keyart (which I will remind you is a LOT more work than I was originally expecting to do) is to keep the core characters the same through each season, but switch out the recurring characters as they apply to each year. To switch Willow would open the door to switching Buffy, Xander, and Giles as their appearance changes from season to season.

I hear what you're saying about Willow's short hair, but it kind of throws off the system I had arranged and you're asking me to do a lot more work than I ever planned to do on these covers (which at the moment, I don't even know how many people will even bother to use them). I hope you can live with "short hair Willow" across all the covers, because that's how I intend to keep it.

I'll have an update on season four's keyart soon...

Here's an update on the keyarts for Seasons 1-5...

Changed the pic of Faith on S3 & S4.
Moved Darla, Drusilla, and Faith up a little bit on their respective covers.
Changed Anya on S3 to be consistent with her picture on S4+.
Added the appropriate characters to finish up the keyart for S4 & S5 (although I had to "fake" the image of Ben on S5... not a lot of promotional images available for the recurring characters, so I have to get creative).

Only Season 6 and Season 7 to go, and most of those keyarts will reuse most of the characters! And finishing the backs and spines, of course...

Thoughts please?

I like a lot but just out of curiosity, I know you had to get creative with Ben but what about reverse his face showing the cyborg half and hid the human half slightly behind Buffy like now, but like i said reversed face. If it's possible it would bring the monster out more imo.

I like the new faith pic more, great job with all the character placements for the recent additions it's coming together very nicely.
