Aw, man, where are the spikes?! Stacer and 42 are right, it's rather disappointing that the Inquisitors (*shudder*) don't have the steel spikes through their eyes.
Anyway, I do like the figure of Vin. Â She looks small but powerful. Â Perfect. Â Even the curve of her foot is fascinating somehow. Â The glass dagger is way cool. I'm glad she's got the short hair like in the book, too.
But what's with the swirls on her petticoat? I guess this can be chalked up to reinforcing the swirling mist theme. Yet I think they're distracting. Â I kept wondering why the odd decoration. Â Did anyone else wonder about this? Â I guess I feel like it takes away from studying -her- and the knife or mistcloak.
I love the mistcloak! I envisioned it being more full, but it's great to see Vin wearing it.
The Mistborn font is cool. It looks very similar to this "Crusades" font I used for the title page on my Tor profile. Interesting.
The lines at the top and bottom sure are strange--almost like some kind of printing press mistake. The lines are rather reminiscent of a comb, actually. Huh.
I wonder if -not- having Kelsier on the cover tips the cards a bit too much, though? Sort of like not giving a Star Trek ensign a last name in an episode? Â
