Mastodon: The Hunter

Today Mastodom revealed the cover to their new album The Hunter which is cool as hell.  A little different (Paul Romano did the first three LPs artwork) then the rest of their album covers but great like all their album art.

The cover is by AJ Fosik, whos work i have been aware of for about a year but only because of his 3 dimensional sculptures.  I am wondering if this is a digiatl painting of a photo of one of his sculptures or if it is a photo that has just been placed onto a digitally painted background.  Click on the album cover to see more work by AJ Fosik.  The new record will be out by the end of the year.
