      @Griffin-McPherson i like first color option better and yes at first glance I didn’t read them as tattoos.

          @Stephanie-H no the tattoos aren’t meant to be anything specific really. Maybe I should just make it into larger, more readable shapes

            I also like the first one more.

            as for the Tattooed guy. I get, that its just a Cover but maybe you should dig in to some styles. Whats his ethnicity? When you get into shapes it could end up looking like Maori? So i would consider to put some thougths into it...But don't want to make it to complicated here.

            I didnt recocnize them as tattoos at first and still find them not odd in a way.

              @Griffin-McPherson I personally like the first one. Maybe just add shadows?

                @Griffin-McPherson Agreed changing and size and shape could definitely help.

                  Update: I’m done with everything except the lettering at this point. Still open to feedback of course. Let me know if anything could use fixing or is visually confusing 8B1FDEC7-87BB-49CA-8BD8-DAB9AC60ECC1.jpeg

                      @Asyas_illos I’m not sure the green is really working well with the rest of the color palette though could try doing an overlay layer and play around with some different colors? I think some thing a little more on blue#green side would tie it together a bit more. Just my personal pref. and opinion.

                        @Griffin-McPherson This is just me but I find the figures on the sword to be distracting and unneeded. I think it will look better without. Overall, I think it's looking great

                            @Griffin-McPherson overall this is an amazing cover design! It looks like a book my kids would be really into. I like the different colors @Asyas_illos tried with her hair. To me, the green you've used stands out a bit too much and doesn't seem to go with the other colors. I really like the one with red hair, and the blue/green one is nice too.

                              @Griffin-McPherson Wow it's really coming together! It seems like you just have some final details to just play around with like some color options for the hair and such.
