Third time's a charm! I originally started all these drawings because I wanted to redraw the Folk of the Air covers/book jackets but needed practice. I'm really happy with how this one turned out, so here's the Wicked King!

A fun book cover illustration for an amazing middle grade novel by Kaela Noel! Talking cats that wear clothes and read books, plus magic — truly a joy to read and work on. I have a few interior illustrations as well that I’ll share later on. It comes out in April from HarperKids Greenwillow Books✨ many thanks to my wonderful art director Paul Zakris, especially for choosing my favorite sketch.

I am making a “book jacket” based on Privilege of the Sword by Ellen Kushner. It is going to be in the style of a doublet. Very Elizabethan. This is the back. I have a black rose embroidered on the back to represent a character in the book. I am going to surround the main flower with flowers in bisexual colors. The jacket will be covered in embroidery using white thread to look like lace and swords. So far I have used old curtains (the teal/blue color), leftover fabric from a sale (green velvet) and a thrifted tablecloth (the green floral fabric). So far the base jacket is done. I might add pieces to the shoulder which will require seam ripping. I am not satisfied with the fit. It is not the best work. Most of that is because I made my own pattern for this and I’m learning, part of that is using a sewing machine on the floor. Overall I very happy with how it looks and I am having fun learning.

The silly beetle is done!
Now here is the cover of what would be the first book in the series. I may consider making a fanfic out of this, who knows!

Tbh I don’t see the point of paper jackets on hardcovers - they just get banged up and most of them don’t looks good anyway. You take it off and there’s the gild print right on the hard surface. It’s beautiful. Like finding hardwood in an old house under the most garish shag carpet

A good 1964 d/j design for Ullman’s Chicago-based novel, alas from an uncredited hand.

I hadn't seen the full photo or in color when I started the WIP - wow, "the hourglass" is all I can say. Still haven't find the photographer's name in the book I had, anyone know off the top of your head? I will keep searching but my energylevels are low.
Anyone out there know the name. @fuckyeahgoodomens @trailingoff @ any fan who's willing to share their wisdom.

The finished product of a school project to design a book jacket! I re-read Abarat for this one. That book's so fun.
