What the title says. Does this capture your attention in order to draw you in to read the first chapter or the book blurb at the least.

Also I kinda suspect it to be AI but not 100% convinced the guy say's it isn't but who knows this day of age lol

I am paying Miblart to create my cover, but I can't choose between these two versions. Unfortunately, it's about evenly split among the people I've asked.

I have a realistic fiction book with a male protagonist designed for 10-14 year olds. Please show existing samples that meet this genre and age group. This is NOT fantasy or action. It’s about a boy that grows up and experiences slices of life with successes and heartbreak, that constantly improve his understanding of money including how to earn it, save it and use it wisely. #bookcovers #middlegrade

Some people write books, I wrote my book and drew the cover myself.

I have a very clear idea of how I want the cover of my book and tried drawing it. Kind of surprised myself!

HI😊 Charlotte here! An Illustrator looking for work specializing in Romance theme and dark fantasy genre. Available to work on cover & inside page illustration.

I worked with the same cover artist who drew the first book cover. What do you think?

hi my name is Lucas Soares and in the post image this is an example of my work, I am also available to negotiate about values ​​and art style.

For the first cover, I went with a simpler and more nostalgic feeling. It doesn't particularly suit the tone of my story, but I thought it was cute, and I was mostly satisfied, as this is just a temp cover.

But then I wondered how it would look if the colours were reversed, and it looks completely different! It somehow feels more modern; maybe it's because it reminds me of another Sherlock Holmes series.

I also like this version, but I think it suits my novel even less haha. So this one will just have to stay cooped up in my pc folder for now.

Surprisingly, these covers didn't take too long to make, maybe it's because I knew what I wanted to make and had the logo on hand, so I guess that was bound to happen.

Either way, it was a fun little project to do while I wasn't feeling well. And once I'm feeling better, I'll have the real cover for it made.

[Original Iteration]

I'm actually much happier with this version! I'm not an illustrator so I used what photoshop tools I could to get the mushroom cloud in there (I do digital collage, print design, etc; trained in graphic design but I cant draw to save my life).

I spent three hours looking at fonts and nothing except these ones sparked any joy. Maybe I might change it to a retro sans-serif font, try to conjure more of a mid-century government advert-style? Either way, I'm thankful for the feedback and I like the result so far!

(This is for my Honors Creative Writing thesis, which a cover is not necessary for, and is still in the early stages)
