Mm'kay.

This is the product of several days of going: "Oh, okay, yeah, that's cool. Wait... DAMMIT! Start over!" Ough, it's been a long ride on this one.

So, basically, I had to redo a book jacket. This is what I came up with using some very subtle symbols. For example, there is a leopard on the back cover. Yeah... subtle.

ANYways, it's finally done, and I'm quite happy with the result. I especially like the trick I did on the horse's head. I could not, for the life of me, find a horse helmet in that specific position, so I had to mess with the actual horse to make it look plated on top. I mean, the spikes were added later... but the plating? all me!

I think, though, that I like the spine's design the best of the three. What with the flames an' all.

Ookay, comment away people!

Ehm... just an edit here. (That's right, a comment totally counts as an edit) If you want to know what all the fine print is, send me a note and I'll post the huge version.

lol Nice trick but one thing.... thirrin looks like a man u can tell by the armor... or did it not have that feature so u had to stick with that one?

If you are reading this....which i see you are....you are in range of the sniper that is aiming at you.....have a nice day

Yeah, didn't really feel like "shaping" the armor to fit her curvatures. In any case, Thirrin is technically supposed to put in a man's shoes, what with the whole succeeding her father thing.
:icondark-shadow-witch:
yeah that makes sense

So much better than the crap cover on my copy. Yeah..nice job.

The fact that you have not read enough to find a better fictional man than a sparkly fake vampire saddens me.

Maddness is an escape...and madness is a metaphor for the paper beneath my pen and the words that spread from my fingers.

Thanks, good to hear!
