Dark Moon
Cover art for Dark moon, Book four of the Wizard's Scion series. Commissioned by Owen Tyme (2024). Art by Ryan Johnson (2024 - Digital - Charcoal/Pencil) The cover I have in mind for *Dark Moon* is fairly simple. I'd like the two primary characters (Levi and his rival, Cha'da) back to back, with the (normally invisible) full moon of their world rising in the background, behind their heads. It would be just after sunset, but everything should be well-lit from the moon and stars (which are quite bright from their world, since they're relatively near the galactic core). In the particular scene…

Demon For President
Commissioned by Owen Tyme (2024) for book three of Ashen Blades, Demon For President. Art by Ryan Johnson (2024 - Digital - Charcoal/Pencil) This should be a simple one, though it may be a little emotionally volatile for people. Foreground: Otto Vogerath, the demon, in human form, wearing his gray suit and blood-red power tie. He'd probably look best standing to one side or the other of the frame. See if you can copy the self satisfied smile from v1 of his picture. He wears brass-framed Windsor glasses (round lenses). v1 of his AI picture is more or less the perfect image of him. I…

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. Most of the story happens in New York city, so a background in a city or a rooftop would work well. The main character uses a wakizashi a lot, if that helps for an actiony pose. Main character is rather short and slender. She's about 48 years old, but looks 15. She's half…

The Third Wish
Commissioned by Owen Tyme (2024) for book three The Wizard’s Scion, The Third Wish. Art by Ryan Johnson (2024 – Digital – Charcoal) For the cover of The Third Wish, I'd like something similar to the AI generated cover, with some differences and greater detail: Levi sitting on a rock on the mountain top, deep in thought, as if the weight of the world were on his shoulders. If you want to put something in his hands, one of his blasters might be a good choice. Those are the revolver-like blasters he inherited from his father. I can dig up a description of…

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…
