      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 ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜œ. The silhouettes are great ๐Ÿ‘. Looking forward to see this develop.

            @burvantill thank you! Yea. Iโ€™m going to rework all the lettering. Itโ€™ll be tricky with gandalfs symbol, because it looks like an โ€œfโ€ but hopefully it wonโ€™t look like I gave me self a bad grade. ๐Ÿ˜†

              @Pamela-Fraley I don't think you're going too simple. I think 'too simple' is a pretty tough line to cross ๐Ÿ™‚

              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'.

                Hereโ€™s another version I made last night. Gahh! I donโ€™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. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ At second glance, the titles value is a tad too dark. I almost didnโ€™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.

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