It took a little more final tweaking than expected, but at last the cover for The Boy With Two Heads is finished and signed off. The publisher and author are both happy and the pdf is ready for uploading. Below is a sneak preview of the finished cover.

More Work on the Boy…

This week I have been completing graphics work on the hand-drawn maps for the inside of The Boy with Two Heads. It involves cleaning up the scans and adding text and scales. This is work that I quite enjoy. It is fiddly and throws up lots of issues but I find I get into a bit of a rhythm with it. The cover design and Photoshop work is just about complete and we are still on schedule for publication by the end of February.

The Boy With Two Heads

Due to be published by the end of February, I have been hard at work on the design of a new cover for author Julia Newsome. This one has been a little different from the first two covers because the audience is young adult. The cover is a little busier and bolder, while still maintaining the house style. There is still some Photoshop work to do but I am almost ready to transfer the cover draft onto the Lightning Source template.
