Book Cover WIP Hobbit

Oh dang i love the graphic design aspect of it. Great use of silhouettes. Red and black always works together. I like the ones with the group of silhouettes. I think the one with the mountain the most.

Sarah LuAnn

They all look so great! Another vote for the one with the mountain.

These are all good idea's. I like the #3&4 the best. I would rework Gandolf's symbol though, right now it looks like a teacher stamped you're art with a big F . The silhouettes are great . Looking forward to see this develop.

@Aleksey thank you! That’s very helpful. ️

@Sarah-LuAnn thank you!

Pamela Fraley

@burvantill thank you! Yea. I’m going to rework all the lettering. It’ll be tricky with gandalfs symbol, because it looks like an “f” but hopefully it won’t look like I gave me self a bad grade.

@Pamela-Fraley I don't think you're going too simple. I think 'too simple' is a pretty tough line to cross

My fav's are the first and second option, I think, though they're all good. I can see the finished cover being done in some kind of awesome sumi ink style. Something nice and 'rough'.

Here’s another version I made last night. Gahh! I don’t know which one I like. The funny thing is that this is just all based on one of my thumbnails: I had about 3 or 4 more completely different concepts I wanted to explore.

@Pamela-Fraley oooh. I like this one! I think you could make that dragon bigger to fill the space more. At second glance, the titles value is a tad too dark. I almost didn’t catch it. But I do like this one the best.

I really like the mountain in the first one, but in the newest one the usage of black is really powerful.

@Pamela-Fraley
I like the first one with the added mountain in the background

They're all great but I'm really drawn to the one with the mountain too!
