Anne Sowards just tweeted a really interview about Dan and his model who is based on Mercy, Jaime - describes how he chose her to be his model and the design of the covers.

Really enjoyed reading this interview ... have always liked the "look" of Mercy on these covers.

Awesome! She doesn't look as Native American as I had expected.

And Dos Santos is just amazing.

She does look like how I envisioned Mercy - and I love how she came about to be 'Mercy' :D

Very interesting. Who'd have thought that cover artists have to be aware of so much and have so many restrictions. Makes one appreciate Dan Dos Santos' great artwork even more!!
 :)
Thanks Has!!

Thanks for sharing the interview! I love the Mercy covers. Jaime is gorgeous and she makes a great Mercy. :)

That is just really cool. Thanks Has!
