It might be because I did not LOVE dishonored but it might also be that I'm getting tired of seeing video game characters standing in the forefront of art pieces. That is probably why I really liked the first Skyrim piece, it was more scenic and told you more about the world as opposed to "look at me and all my deeply covered layers of personality."

The Skyrim one is a cool piece of concept art, but you're right, it takes a deep commitment to want to hang it.
The Dishonored ones are the paintings made for use as background art in the game itself. The style is cool, and the idea of having the same thing that's hanging in the game is cool, but I also am not in love with the content. We have some Dishonored giclees coming up that are very different. I'm not sure I love them either, but they're really, really not characters standing in front of a vignetted background, so that's at least something.
