Book cover

For some reason when I uploaded my book covers, the pink just got obnoxious, these are better uploads with the pink the way its supposed to be. 



 




Front Cover
Took away the flap, made the "T" more readable. It was a cool idea to make the tail cradle the "tis" but it just didn't work out, it stretched the tail to much. Changed the border to pink instead of yellow. 

Back Cover
 Changed the border to pink, got rid of the rat.



Made the tree more recognizable as a tree...


First Draft front

I don't know if I like the tree trunk wear it is, I'm thinking about moving it to the middle of the flap and maybe throwing in some basic lines to look like tree bark. Right now I'm not sure if it comes across as a tree.

  1. I would like to see the image or your name burned into the background texture with a layer effect. I think it might look good.

  2. I agree with Krist, something about either the coloring or the text seems almost clashing. I really like the dragons on either side though.

  3. Taking off the little animal on the back cover and the illusion of having the front seen like it flips open works out. I do agree with both Stephanie and Kris though. Having it burn onto the background might make it look better.
