Book Cover Design: The Hero and the Crown

Stressing about my grad film again, but have other assignments from my other classes to worry about.

So first is the cover for Illustrating Literature I've been working on, for The Hero and the Crown - Robin McKinley. (Previous post is one of the inside illustrations but I think I'll be redoing that one if I have the time.)


my wip, it's almost done! Just need to add the back cover text and finish coloring Aerin. It's one of my favorite books I read back in middle school! I recently read The Blue Sword as well, and I like it more than this book but I wanted to paint red flame hair haha. This is also my first time trying to draw a horse, I think I was successful? Definitely need to practice drawing ALL sorts of things when college is done.

Next, I've decided to submit something for the art for Japan auction thing over at http://tsunami.cfsl.net/ . I've managed to work it into my school projects, so I'm pretty sure I'll get it done before the deadline. I encourage other artists to submit! 50 selected entries will be auctioned off and the profits will be donated towards aid for Japan.
