I got a new cover! shower me in feedback

[PoppyTheMerpasaur]

I posted something here a bit ago about what I could do to change my cover art, and I took a lot of that feedback and relayed it to an artist

After some back and forth, here's the finished result! The first one is the old one, and the second one is the new one.

Also, in the off chance the cover at all interests you, here's the link to the comic: https://tapas.io/series/reaperstorm/info

Gonna work on getting a better banner next!

Both are great, but.... I like the second one better, but I think it would look better without the two characters overlapping the background picture. I find it's too cluttered.

Love the second one.

Yo! The second one's a nice improvement! Good job!

The brown haired dude seems displaced...needs some work...

To be honest, both needs some work. I like the second one more, but you should focus on improving the characters appearance. Keep trying and something good should eventually come out it. You’re on the right track, good luck!

The blonde guy in the second one looks a little out of place. As if he’s not in the same lighting as everything else. Other than that, it’s pretty good

This is some great improvement! It is as people have pointed out that the blonde person looks like they don't fit in with the lighting. I would also exaggerate the light a little bit more, because the cover is going to be thumbnail size when people see it and so everything needs to be easily readable.

I made this really quick to show what I mean. I put the blond person in some purple shadow and made the blue light brighter. I also gave the person in the purple hood sliiightly less white eyes. I know they glow but I think it helps the overall composition and focal areas.

Also a comparison in grayscale to show how the values were more exaggerated:

But I think your new version is already way better than the first one! I can see way easier what's going on and I get more of an idea of what the story is about! Good job!

I'll relay this to my artist to get a more refined version! Thank you for your feedback!

Same with everyone of course, but your feedback is incredibly in-depth <.<
