The Glorious Adventures of the Sunshine Queen
Here's another book I did the cover for. This one went through a lot of changes along the way so I really had to hurry at the end. I'm happy with how it turned out considering, but I also wish I could have taken more time and really made it stunning. Oh, and the book is great. I definitely recommend it.

ReplyDeleteWell done Sam, nice work
ReplyDeleteI want to take my shoes off and walk in that grass, it looks so soft!
ReplyDeleteSo, a texture question...
ReplyDeleteThere's such great, rich texture in this, and it has a similar feel as the warrior bug painting you did a while back.... is there a lot of "borrowed" texture in this painting, and if so... how heavily do you rely on textures usually in your paintings?
Great scene!
ReplyDeletelooks really awesome sam
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteLogan: Depends on the deadline, usually, and the final look I'm going for. If I had more time I probably would have polished this a bit more and I think you'd see the textures more as an integrated part of the painting. But when I'm in a rush I do the bare minimum necessary to keep the painting from looking like a texture hack-job.
It wouldn't let me comment before. I need a book cover.
ReplyDeleteGreat job Sam . . . amazing and inspiring work . . . geez.
