    SAPR Rewrite Volume 3 Cover by MRK50

    In another sign of how overly optimistic I once was about how long it would take me to get through this rewrite, back in January 2021 I had a cover for Volume 3 done by MRK50, whose absence from the fandom since then is much lamented. With the new phase of the story due to start on Monday, I can finally share it with you all:

    Shameless shilling of my non-MLP fics

    Those of you who enjoy SAPR, but who possibly find it a bit too big, a bit too slow, or those of who you don't have any problems with it at all but would like to read more RWBY fics from me may be interested in a couple of new fics that I've started fairly recently without any MLP elements.

    Team SAPR and Fluffy by Tianshiko

    A little over a year ago I commissioned this artwork of Team SAPR, the stuffed beowolf and mascot of Benni Havens'; the artist, the very talented Tianshiko, had some health issues and wasn't able to work on it for a long time, but now they've finished it and I hope you'll all agree that it was worth the wait.

    On the future of SAPR

    So... when I first started rewriting SAPR I told everyone that it would not impede the forward movement of the story. I never kept that promise exactly as I intended it at the time that I made it, but I never exactly broke it either.

    Until now.

New Cover for SAPR · 10:11pm Feb 18th, 2020

So, because SAPR is moving into a new phase of its story, I decided to commission a new cover for it by the talented artist MRK50, which you can now see on the fic itself, but which you can also see here:

I still need to read this, but I'm concerned it's going to consume me when I start.

Damn, this looks good. If you ever publish this story in a book format you should definitely use this as the cover for it.

It will my friend, it will.

Ugh, I want to read this, I really do. But I do not have the time for that 1 million word investment. Maybe someday.

That is absolutely gorgeous! Seriously this series gets better and better with every chapter and now new cover art to boot!!?!?!?!?

It will, unless you have a strong sense of discipine and a will of steel XD, fortunately i started this from the very beggining, if not i would have pulled some nighters, which may have probably killed me XD.

Look for a vacation in a beach, then forget it and read, you wil have plenty of time for it, it will take you about 10 days straight form 8 am to 10 pm, enjoy XD.

Pretty good cover, although it makes me wonder what role Ceil is going to play to warrant 1/4th of the cover.

If this is the cover that new readers are going to see, maybe remove the glow around Pyrrha's eyes. It's a pretty big spoiler.

I started reading from the very beginning. Funny enough though it was updating so fast at one point that I wasn't able to keep up with it! I'm probably about 300k words behind at this point lol

I would love for you to read it, so I will live in hope.

The cover art looks great...Except for Sunset herself. She looks horrific. Like...Aside from looking like a man, she just looks weirdly proportioned.

While I think it looks awesome, Pyrrha's eyes burning with the powers of a Maiden is perhaps a bit spoilerly for people familiar with RWBY but are new to this story.

Worth every moment spent with every word. And it just keeps getting better and better, which is amazing because it started awesome. :twilightsmile:

Every one is looking at Pyrrha's maiden eyes, not her chin. I mean, Look at that thing!

Well, now it's being rewritten so if you stick to the (rewritten) or (added) chapters, of which there is only one at the moment, it will be as if there isn't a backlog at all:raritywink:
