Default Re: Cover Design Contest

Gonso, I have taken several courses in graphic design and was about to give this contest a serious go. I don't think I'll bother now. These may be some of the most striking book covers I've ever seen. Very good job.

I may still throw some ideas around, but I can't imagine topping this.

If you don't mind a few criticisms, I'd suggest thinly bordering your cover font in a deeper shade of the main cover color. This may ease the shock of the transition from the cover color to stark white. Also I agree that the title must come down, and you'll likely have to reduce the king's total size to accomplish this. The "Vol 1" font is an excellent touch.

Again, excellent work!
