Couple covers I've started making

[Woollybear]

So, based on the feedback here and elsewhere, and due to the cover artist saying I shouldn't use his layers in any cover I make on my own (the third cover above), I've tweaked the second version, which most of you preferred over the first version. I think this is the final version, although I do plan to rotate through various covers and blurbs over time. Data data data. Yum yum yum.

But this one is the official cover to start with.

I like the last one best. Just a reader's point of view but if I saw this one on a bookshelf it would draw me in. The two suns stand out well so I know I'm not in Kansas anymore. The others have rather a busy graphic on the bottom. Art usually stands out better when it's simpler.

Just saw your newest version. Looks really good. Little village is more pronounce. Nice!

Thank you, Mr(s). Gate.

After sleeping for a few nights on it, I think I need to play with the kerning a tad bit more and the L. in the author name needs work. But this is minutiae! I can't tell you how happy I am to have my own double-suns drawn as my own layer that I can use without worrying about licensing. I am also exceedingly pleased to have discovered the spotlight feature on CorelPainter.
