Frankenstein Book cover progress

I'm rolling with the dead flower idea because to me a flower is a beautiful representation of life and death which links in with the story of Frankenstein's monster. I've added stitches to the petals and the stem to demonstrate pieces being put back together. I'm going with a more subtle approach to the book cover because in my opinion less is more in this case. Despite everyone being fearful of Frankenstein's monster, there is a vulnerability there that makes him such an endearing and tragic character for the reader.

Ghouley blobs and horned skeletons

Meet the blobbiest, most slimy ghoul ever. I thought this was a fun idea for one of the cards and what's not to like about a blobby ghoul? Not sure what powers he would have yet. I'm imagining a situation where he could throw up on another player's character causing temporary blindness. The utterly delightful things I think of! This is creepy, right? Thinking of making this a reaper sort of character. Jealous of the living.

New projects I'm working on

Back in uni, two new projects to do. The first being to design character/images for a made up table top card game. I've been greatly inspired by Andy Hunt's card game Necronomicards Click here to check it out It's a horror themed card game with monsters from all different cultures and mythologies. This theme is my kinda thing so I'm very excited to start creating these characters. The second project I'm working on is to design a book cover. Unsure of which story yet but it will be horror/thriller/mystery themed I can say that much .
