Prossia Blog Tour: The FINAL DAY

I can't believe it's finally over. And what do I have to show for it? A really big smile.  :D

While I wish I had done a blog tour years ago when "Prossia" was first published, I'm wondering if it would've been as successful as this one. This was quite the experience, all of it being positive. 

I cannot stress how grateful I am to the Masquerade Crew (especially Diantha Jones) for making this tour as big as it was. These guys and gals did a phenomenal job, being on top of their A. Games when it came to feeding the web withe updates and information. Thank you all, so much!

And finally, YOU, who's been coming back to either the Crew's or my own blog throughout the past week to see where my next stop was. Yeah, I saw you out there! :P

So finally, I'm closing this blog tour with one of "Prossia's" earlier promotional images, the very illustration that inspired its cover. It's great to look back, but now it's time to move forward. Prossia is finally getting on track, starting 2013 with a successful blog tour, a prequel coming out this fall, and the original novel is even going to get republished with grammar fixes and a brand new cover. Be on the lookout for the tours that will present all of these new items, but until then, as I always close with my Prossia Sci-fi Fan Club weekly newsletters, think big on a galactic level. Unity Within Diversity! 

-Thank you.

What.Is.This??? Part 4

Ah, perfect timing as I finishing up my first blog tour. Hmm. I think this might be the last update I do before showing the final pic. Dunno. We'll see!

There really wasn't too much of a difference between this and the last update, actually. I thought his left arm was a tad boring, so I moved it up. Now, what else? Ah! It looks like I did a little more detail on the right hand, and I'm starting to use one of the default digital pens here and there as well. Hope you're liking the progress!

Invasion Cover- Part 2

I wanted to make sure my client got a chance to see this before I posted it up, so here it is again! I'm going to seek out some insight from some fellow designers and cover artists, now that it's almost done.

I added some more textures, a few filters here and there, and brought the file back over to Photoshop, now that it's in its final stages.

This has been tons of fun! I usually don't do the romance stuff. . . even if there's an alien :P.

Invasion Cover

Happy February! Since February is "the Month of Love," it's only fitting that I find myself doing a cover for a romance novel, dontchya think? Granted, if you can't tell, it's a sci-fi romance novel.

I owe author A. Star a big one, so this is a "thank you" gift I'm doing for her. The pic still has a long way to go, but I think it's turning out nicely so far. ;)

I went back to an old love of mine, Painter 11, so I could use some digital brushes that convey the type of painting style many artists use in their romance covers. I'll switch back and forth between that and Photoshop, tweaking it here and there until the appointed time. Ah, and a big thanks to Tiffany Jill from her DeviantArt account  for letting me use one of her stock images for reference.
