Frankenstein Book cover progress

Image may contain: drawing

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.

Alternate Frankenstein Covers

Here's a little bit of a different angle. So I've been exploring with a wilting flower idea for Frankenstein however I like the idea of featuring body parts on the cover. I've formed the image of a flower-like shape using a human heart. The stem is an artery with bolts sticking out like thorns.  For the back cover ive used simply imagery and left a space for the blurb. These were both done with letraset/windsor and newton promarkers and derwent inktense blocks.
