Bone Key WIP

February 27, 2014

So I spent a decent amount of time comparing all of the Supernatural books in my possession to make sure that they were the same size and so that I would be able to replicate a book cover to be as authentic as possible. 



Figuring out where the rulers needed to be placed probably took the longest. This one is inspired by the Feathers book from my previous post.

It took forever and a day to get the little summary of the book justified, but I did it. Yay!


Then I found a neat little key with a skull on it, so I re-created that and stuck it in there.



Found a good barcode because paperback books have those. And they have to be taken into consideration when designing book covers. You don't want to like mess up and not leave room for the barcode and then have your design get covered up. That's no fun.


So that ^ was gonna be the last of it, but I didn't like the stale feeling I was getting from looking at it. So I added wisps! 


And a texture because white sucks. This isn't done yet. I need to do a little more to the spine and then I'll be done.
