I'm looking for a designer to illustrate a book cover for eBook and Print publishing. It is in the fantasy genre and I have attached artwork from similar designs that I like.
** Please note this must be an original illustration, stock images or other people's art is not acceptable, thanks. **
Synopsis:
This story is about a young women's journey from the modern-day world, who is thrust into a confusing medieval world filled with magic, fantasy, royalty and danger.
Designs Ideas:
Two ideas I had for the image are:
- #1 a frail slender young woman, dressed simply ie long white nightgown/dress, sitting on an oversized ornate gothic throne. Her face should be turned, semi-profile. She should appear upset, frightened. The throne will dwarf her and the background could be a simply shadows or a room cast into shadow. She is beautiful.
- #2 a crucible with green smoke and fire underneath.
Or your ideas incorporating include one or more image components:
- a fragile female women in her late 20's: a petite frame with long dark hair.
- an empty throne
- a smoking crucible
- a crown, next to or on the floor by the figure
Title:
The World of Evendaar
The Hidden Child
Book One
Text (back cover, quotes, ISBN etc):
Once a winner is selected we'll provide you with the complete textual details to be included on the cover (to be included in the winning bid price).
Colors & Style:
The cover should have dark, gothic style, and include main colors of black, grey, and green (such as http://www.margiepalatini.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/favoriate_green.jpg) and other colors as the designer requires.
Size:
Most likely 140mm (width) x 216mm (height) (i.e. 5.5″ x 8.5″), unknown depth at this point but assume 30mm (1.2″) with a background that could overflow onto a bigger area if it's deeper.
Delivery:
The resulting file should be delivered in PDF (vector) and PSD (layered) formats.
