She Goes to War

Cover for She Goes to War - Book Two of Ashen Blades. commissioned by Owen Tyme (2024) Art by Ryan Johnson (Digital - Charcoal - 2024) Put LMS, Simmons and the Sergeant at the edge of the jungle, crouching among the ferns, looking out. LMS would be pointing and the Sergeant would be using binoculars. I imagine LMS at the front, the Sergeant just behind her and Simmons bringing up the rear, peering over their heads. In essence, they'd be in order of height. It would be nice if the patch on the Sergeant's left shoulder were visible and the height differences might be…

She Hunts Demons

Cover art for She Hunts Demons Book One of Ashen Blades. commissioned by Owen Tyme (2024) Art By Ryan Johnson (Digital – Charcoal – 2024) It's set in 1945, a matter of weeks before the first atomic bomb test, which does have some bearing on the story.

The Third Wish

Commissioned by Owen Tyme (2024) for book three The Wizard’s Scion, The Third Wish.

Forgotten Legends

Cover art for Forgotten Legends - Book two of The Wizards Scion series. Commissioned by Owen Tyme (2023) Art By Ryan Johnson (Digital - Paint - 2023) View under Levi's bed, with the glowing, red eyes of the monster that lives there shining out of the shadows. Well, "lives there" is inaccurate, make that "hides there". The descriptive details you'd need of the bedroom are in the first few paragraphs of chapter 2. If you're looking to simplify the scene, you could run the perspective from beside the dresser, so light coming from the upper right, and Levi could be…
