      Wow I'm in awe, so many gorgeous entries! 😍

      Here's one of my two covers, didn't know which one to post so I flipped a coin. 🙂

          @jdubz You say grim, but considering how twisted the book gets in places I think it's just appropriate! At least that's what I told myself with my second cover. 😉 Yours is awesome.

                        It's been a while since I've entered one of these, I've been playing around with a more traditional style. Excited to hear what you think/feedback. Thanks!

                                So many great designs, it’s really inspiring! I decided to give this a go quite late in the day and whilst I’m a bit iffy on it the podcast gave me a little kick up the bum to get it finished and just learn from it. Looking forward to August.

                                (Uh, I accidentally uploaded a very slightly earlier edit without the sign so I have swapped it out but if that isn’t allowed...well...uhh...judge me on the first edit? Both were in on time, thank you sorry, sorry)

                                      @DKRyland This cover is very interesting just from a graphic design perspective! It definitely stands out. I love the footprints.

                                        @Quackamos Very likeable character designs! I like the slightly sepia colors and the subtle way you handled the bricks. Also, cool font choice!

                                          @Jordi-Ventura The character designs are so fun and appealing! I like the style of mostly flat colors with some subtle textures and shading. Everything works really well together on this... very unique color scheme, too!
