My comic is coming back, I wonder what you think about it based on the cover

[Lunar-Turtle]

Well guys it’s been some time, quite a long time, but the moment has finally come. I was working on myself, learning, improving, doing a lot of art, both personal and commissions and even thought not all my problems are solved, I am now at better place than I was. And during all that I worked on my comic and I think it’s finally time to come back. So I want to announce that Synastry is officially coming back. We start with the season of Scorpio on 24th October. And to give you a little tease, here is the main cover. It doesn't matter if you know my story or not. I just wonder what you think of the cover, if it looks good, bad and what you think this story is about. Just what impression you get. Thank you

[Lensing]

It plays in modern times + it´s probably a story based on a romantic relationship,
could also be a non romantic relationship

I think you could give the cover more information

[LostKelp]

Romantic relationship between an angel and a demon with themes of astrology. Set in modern times, the angel kinda looks military while the demon is more street art vibe. Probably more of an order vs chaos theme rather than good vs evil.

I don't know what synastry means in relation to all of that though.

@Lensing @LostKelp

Ooof, well I actually expected people may get that idea, lol. They're brothers. It's supposed to show the younger brother saving the older one from the darkness and his demise. Yeah, they're kids, lol.

Synastry is an astrologic term, representing the relationships between signs, practially how they react to each other, because relationship of characters are one of the main themes of the story.

[Lensing]

My second thought was that they are siblings, I guess I´m just used to see romantic
cover artwork

[Lunar-Turtle]

@Lensing I think that's understandable, because romance is like the most common genre, so it kinda pushes us all to think everything is romance, and makes us forget about other things types of relationships, like family or friendship.

It's a nice cover. Nothing beats falling with style ^^

[thepenmonster]

Colors are nice but the title is unclear. Both with the font and with the word itself.

If we look at a classic example:

I can see by the art that is about a man who is super. A super man of some sort. Oh hey! Look at the title! And the title font looks like it's flying or moving fast. Like a super title.

Even something less blatant like One Piece works in conjunction with the visuals and gives the idea. The jolly roger in the O on its own tells you pirates are involved even if the cover is just another Oda group shot among millions he's drawn.

Maybe emphasize the wings on the characters as well as in the title? It took me a while to pick up what they were. (Honestly I just thought it was rough motion lines but my eyes are growing old.)

I'm just not getting an idea of what you're trying to get me to read. As pointed out above, I too assumed it was yet another romance/ BL comic on the platform.

[Lunar-Turtle]

@thepenmonster Thank you this is a very useful advice. I know the logo can be quite confusing, mainly because it's a word that most people don't know, but it's the best word that I found to represent themes fo the story. Since it's all based on astrology and this is astrological term. It's kinda hard to show what this story is about without going deep into such things. I am well aware I am kinda risking by choosing this path, but after much thinking, I didn't find a better way.Hm, but yeah, I may make the wings more noticable.

The story is a scifi and fantasy, based on astrology and i wanted to show the main point of the story is relatinship between brothers.One saving the other. But yeah, I'm also aware it can make people think it's just another bl romance because that's waht this site is full off. ButIi wanted to keep the cover on the point, on the main focus of the story, even if it may be foolish of me.So I kinda agree with everything you say.

It's very futuristic yet mystical. I like this cover it's very beautiful

@julias_art_universe I'm so glad, that's exactly what I wanted to show

[Lupine]

My first guess would be romance or two really good friends! Maybe something that's like a.. roller coaster of emotions, but whatever it is, it's gonna be BEAUTIFUL and a ride! I love the cover! The color scheme is chef's kiss!!

[Lunar-Turtle]

@Lupine Me hiding a drark story behind pretty colors, lol. Thank you, I'm glad you like it, but noh not a romance story, lol.
