Absolutely beautiful! Do you have a full jacket created for this yet? Did you do this hand lettering yourself?

Thanks Jason. I have to scan in the full jacket. I designed the front and spine. Algonquin In-house did the rest. The font came from a Dover book that I scanned, cut and paste, curved, made dimensional and added textures and lighting effects. This was a satisfying job to work on because the story was so complex. I'm glad I found a way to reduce it to it's essence and keep it mythic.

Crazy beautiful! I would love to hang either of those designs on my wall. Actually, let me know if there is a way that I could get that second design you did as a poster... Great inspiration.

I love colors on the type. Reminds me of those old hand-stenciled signs left to ruin at the general store.
