I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm just looking for the name of the artist who did the artwork for the Alternative Cover of the Glory of Giants book. I have a hydro74 collection of alt cover D&D books, and while the artstyle looks similar, I can't verify anywhere if it is the same artist.
To me, it looks like the work of Wylie Beckert, who did the (first) alternate cover for Tasha's Cauldron of Everything. She hasn't posted anything about it anywhere, but neither has anyone else! I suppose we'll know when it actually comes out.
I can see that, it does give some strong TCoE resonance, and does look a lot like her portfolio's general style. I like the chessboard theme of it, maybe the lore will describe some sort of "great game" the Giants experience throughout the multiverse, distinct from but also reminiscent of the dragon iterative incarnations revealed by some forms of Dragonsight. The squares also seem to speak to the Ordning.

Jander Sunstar is the thinking person's Drizzt, fight me.
Annam the All-Father of giants is said to have ended the war against dragons but playing a similar game with their god. He's also said to have won the secret of rune magic from Primus in a game, or something like that.
I doubt it's anything important though. I think they probably just wanted to have Bigby using his most famous spell on the cover and also some giants.
