If you intended "ILH2:Under the Red Moon", I think Japanese illustrators did fine works.

I just want to contribute for the community, in the limitation of time for
my living.
Under the current economical crisis,I fear many good plans might be stopped.

I have never intended to disturb your great sense of art and contribution, but many plans wait after first three:
Heroquest 2.0
The Sartar Book
Pavis Book
Great Argrath Campaign
Heroes of Malkion
Oak and Thorn
The Coming Storm
FarPak ('To Walk In Far Places')
Frankly speaking, if you permit me to tell my priority, new rulebook, Sartar
and Pavis Book are good,
but I want primally next three new supplemental or scenario books (GAC, HoM
and OaT).
And I assume most Japanese Glorantha fans will agree with me. Because of the history and condition of Gloranthan RPG publications in Japan.
Linguistic barrier makes difficult to use new rulebooks... HQ 1.0 was never
translated into Japanese.
Most Japanese gloranthaphiles use HW, RQ 3rd (Both translated into Japanese)
or Japanese rule valiant like 'RuneWars'.
( If I have a chance, I want to explain about the pathetic but sentimental
history.)

I have never intended to harass them, simply I asked if I can help a little
Shannon, Jamie or Greg.
I think illustrators find difficulty to make images for Malkioni custumes...
Please send me an e-mail if you think I can be some help. I will try to
answer you, at least once per month.

P.S.
BTW, I heard that some Japanese illustrators didn't get their presentation
copies of ILH2, though they contributed about the book.
Is it a sort of some mistake, Greg?
