Self-Assignment, Part Two

 Okay, so it's not a book cover, but instead of writing my 10-page paper this weekend, I decided to download free trials of Photoshop and Illustrator and mess around with those. These are just a couple sketches of the two main characters from the story I'm writing (the ones I posted a few weeks ago). I took them into Photoshop and Illustrator and basically did a lot of the same stuff to them that we did for the Winona book cover. It was a lot of fun and I actually managed to figure out a few new things in the programs!

Final Book Cover

Here's my final book cover redesign! I'm pretty pleased with it...at least, I think it's a little better than the original. I had a lot of fun doing it, especially after we did the Winona exercise, which helped a lot with the image I found for the cover (which was actually an image of "ghosts"...but I think it works for a fantasy novel, too).
