 Ah, nice, another opportunity to post about Vektor! :P





Since Somewhere in Time was mentioned, I think the cover of the Wasted Years single should be posted as well:




Another favourite artist of mine: Michael Whelan (esp. known for his work with Sepultura and Obituary):




...and who can forget Ed Repka? Here, in his magnum opus in my humble opinion, his work for Megadeth's Rust in Peace:



...and Hangar 18:



...and Holy Wars:





...and a tribute to my favorite hobby, ie collecting metal shirts:
First, the obligatory Vektor:







and secondly, one of my favorite shirts in my collection, Anthrax - Road to Euphoria, special Mosters of Rock shirt. That's the NOT man being Judge Dredd. How awesome is that? :)




There are tons more of sci-fi themes in metal. TONS.

Warhammer 40k should count.



Crimson fists making a final stand.



Not totally sure about this one.  The green thing in the corner kinda looks like an ork though.  Don't recognize the color scheme of the dudes in power armor.



This is so Imperial Guard.

Great power metal album imo.
Only the dead have seen the end of war.
Without music, life would be a mistake.
