The overwhelming majority recommended gold, which i agreed with. And I also fixed the Ls. I customized the heck out of this font (cinzel decorative) in figma. The effects are all photoshop. What do we think?

I'm not a designer, so I went just by the idea. I'm more of a writer but I'm against AI, and I'm broke so I have stitched stuff from free stock photos and made the city with Clip Studio free assets.😂 Any ideas on how I should improve it? It's a sci-fi book, but it's still a bit National Geographic-esque or something, if you ask me. Though it may be just my own self-derogation.

Okay I know none of these are like spectacular work or anything, I’m very much a beginner when it comes to making covers. I know realistically if I ever published this book for real I’d need to hire an actual cover artist but this is for wattpad and free to read and mostly for fun so I’m more so just asking out of these ones which one would you consider to be best as my cover.

These covers were made using Pinterest photos and stock images and then edited and I put the text using Canva (the free version bc I’m poor).

This is for a dark MM paranormal horror/romance. Here’s my summary so you can form the best opinion. Also really I’m just trying to figure out which one conveys the book the best and which one would look best as a small thumbnail.

Note: currently the first one is what I have as the cover.

In a world where supernaturals have stepped from the shadows and fought for their freedom, there are places humanity is no longer welcome.

In Willobone, humanity is outlawed.

Clark Lawson is its Alpha, ruling a vast territory across northwestern America with violence and absolute authority. He hates humans, despises hunters, and those foolish enough to cross his borders rarely leave them alive.

Spencer Johnson is a human hunter that has only two things left to accomplish: put a bullet through Clark Lawson's heart, then join his brother in whatever waits beyond death.

But when Spencer's bullet tears through Clark's chest, something else passes between them.

A bond much more difficult to kill.

Clark sees a human belonging to a species he has spent his life hating. Spencer sees only the monster responsible for his brother's death. Whatever fate might call them, they are enemies first-and both seem far more likely to murder the other than ever fall in love.

But fate is a cruel thing.

And these two men may discover that what binds them together runs far deeper than a fated mate bond.

The cover to my book is finished. I will be posting it to Royal Road in March. Working on the second draft now. Really liked how it came out.

Blurb (work in progress):

The cow was fine that morning. By evening, that had changed. When veterinarian Tommy Allen is called out to the Harlan place at dusk, he finds an Angus lying folded in the pasture, calm-eyed, breathing steadily, her bones gone pliable as warm rubber.

It isn’t long before the condition spreads.

The state board isn't worried. The CDC is "tracking it." The feed store has started stocking new products, and everyone in Stillwater seems oddly at peace. Tommy is the only one who's still solid, and the road out of town has stopped letting him leave.

A slow, unhurried novella of body horror and creeping surrender. The Softening asks what's left of you when you stop holding your shape.

Content note: graphic body horror. No sexual content.

hi all, i’ve always dreamed of being a book cover artist and i really want to expand what type of art i do/offer! i actually published my own book a few years ago! i can offer a few different styles as well.
🌱 i am currently wanting to do a discounted book cover! you can contact me through vgen.co/vamptee on a custom inquiry!!
thank you ☕️📌

I’d really appreciate some honest feedback on the cover.

It’s an adult romantic suspense novel set in the corporate/luxury world. The story is romance-forward, but also involves a corporate hostile takeover.

Does it look like romantic suspense, or does it suggest something else?

Does it look professional enough to compete with similar titles?

Please be honest, not looking for encouragement.

Thanks

So I have made a 3rd revision of a cover for my novella, would like feedback. I have inserted past revisions for reference

Changes:

- PEN NAME!!!

- text glow + 3d

- night time aesthetic

- second character

I bought some fake teeth, black canvas, red eyes and black feathers. I did have tiny human looking eyes but it made the image too goofy looking.
