So full of love for these guys! I need to do more drawings of them. Especially of softer, rounder Simon when he’s no longer malnourished from being in the care system :/
I wanted to give myself the challenge of creating a book cover design, and making the mock-up was fun. I’m not sure how I feel about the overall look.. maybe it’s a bit too busy? I really wanted to have Watford in the background and the dragon wings, and details like Penelope’s ring. Simon is secretly wearing his trainers but they got hidden by the title banner 🤦♂️
I love how much illustration is being used on the covers of YA fiction right now. Having my artwork on a queer YA book cover would be a dream.
I love this mock-up design!! I think the art style is perfect and would serve well as a special edition of the book😍
