I wish the photo could be bigger, but site pixel width regulations make it crappy small bad resolution.1
WORK IN PROGRESS2
Incomplete Front Cover 3
I feel as though a book's best selling point is not what is written on the inside, but what is shown on the outside. I know the old saying goes "never judge a book by it's covers", but it's rubbish and everyone know that. Only the hyped up books sell because of the writing.4
I believe my image would capture a casual reader's eyes (irony) because of both its simpleness and the way it intrigues people to read into the book.5
It is based on this passage -6
"Wesley’s steely blue eyes penetrated his very soul. He clenched his teeth."7
I felt as though it would be nice for the reader to get a glimpse of what Wesley would look like even though they wouldn't know who's eyes they were at the beggining.8
Anyways, if you don't like it I can delete it and I wont bother you again.9

This is good! I can almost see this at the
top of the book on a black background with
red or gold lettering! It's an instant
attention-getter! I think this one
has alot of potential. -
Whoa, those eyes freaked me out
But you're right, they'll definately draw the readers interest in. Excellent work!

That's alright then. If your picture is chosen, then I'll ask you to include the title and my real name. So don't worry about taking the time to do all that work until the contest closes. Thanks for letting me know how difficult graphic art can be.

Ok but I really will only do that if you actually will use this art
Cuz it'll take alot of work to do it -
The title can be anywhere you'd like. That's it.
-
Sure
What do you want on the front cover
Bloodline as the title which will be on the top right?
What else -
Nonsense about deleting it. I wonder if you could incorporate the title into it somehow. If not. The pic does stand alone. I think it is marvelous.
