Gravity (mirrored cover)

Postby ThomasGuycott » Jan Sat 18, 2014 7:37 pm

Long time no see!  ;-)

Been suffering a bout of artist's block, with several projects in various states of progress but no real drive to finish them.  A recent discussion of Gravity on another forum sparked inspiration for a minimalist cover, similar to what you might see for a steelbook edition:

The back originally sported a large credit block. After another member joked Clooney was stuck on the rear due to second billing, that gave me the idea to rework it into a mirrored version of the front.

Hopefully others find it interesting.  :-)

Not a big fan of mirrored images on a cover. :->
I like the front but not the back even if it's the same as the front.

It must be a magical Mirror that mirrors Sandra like George... OMG... But if it mirrors George like Sandra, that's OK! lol



Joking aside, i like this cover, though not a big fan of mirrored covers (esp some i seen before) like Wrench but not an bloodthirsty enemy against them either! I know there're lot of people who would be happy with using this...   ;-)

I agree with you about the minimalist covers, there is a market for them, and looking at your cover i can't say nothing else then that you did a great job.
