Graphic novel cover design

@natiwata I like both, but they have slightly different emotional reads for me. Last batch neutralizes the mood a little, so the emotion and action are slightly more open to interpretation. The sunset definitely has more dramatic connotations, like time is running out before darkness. It amps up the speed of the action and makes her expression look more intense.

So I guess day version makes me feel that the graphic novel is a bit more introspective and the sunset scene makes it feel like it might have more action-adventure in it.

@natiwata I like the sunset version. Very suspenseful like @TessaW said. Nice!

Definitely the sunset version, great work!

@natiwata with the sunset one. I was thinking everything is using such warm colors that if you wanted to add emphasis to the urn you could make it blue or purple (a cool color) to draw the viewer to it.

Thanks everyone! Looks like sunset wins. Now one last decision before I submit it tomorrow:

@natiwata I like the bottom right. The blue really draws the viewer into the girl and urn.

@natiwata I also like the bottom right. The blue vest helps pull the eye to the urn.

I've looked at this several times already and still really can't make up my mind. However, I think the bottom left (black letters, orange vest) offers the most suspense.

I like the black lettering and blue vest. This has the best contrast in my opinion. I like the composition and the colors of the trees indicating the three grounds. Well done.
