So, here’s Ruby, Flesh & Heart’s book cover.
Here’s the first sketch for the cover. I wanted the braids to be individually platted, and the faces to look a more different.

The only thing was I didn’t get my summary edited so I had a different editor work on that, just trying him out. But my designer was going on vacation in July so I had to just send what the new editor had, hoping it was good enough. If not, then I asked for a black back cover for my book, and I can add in the text myself. My book designer was so helpful in that arena. She didn’t have to do that for me (she actually suggested blank since I wasn’t ready for my text yet, so I asked for both). I’m just placing the front cover of the book on here.
So here are the stages for my Irid Book.
Here’s the first draft, and I had NO problems with what I saw. It looked great!
Irid Sketch
Here’s the first color and I wanted to add stars. Also, the key had to be green instead of gold.
Irid First Color
Here’s the final color. I had NO problems with what I saw, so I said YES!
That’s about it for Irid. Next post is the book cover for Ruby, Flesh and Heart!
