 I've tried to create the vision I had in my head with watercolours. It's worked out well but I need to tighten things up in photoshop and maybe tone down the red a bit. I also used a pipette to drip some red ink on there. I now have to work on the back cover of the book and spine.

So here we have four ideas for the cover of Bram Stoker's Dracula. I picked Dracula because it's  a classic story of love, loss and horror. I used eyes and the neck because these are two vulnerable areas and I wanted to display a simple image representing  Meena's vulnerability. I may do covers from Dracula's perspective to show his vulnerability which is not something we see in modern vampire stories today. Dracula's vulnerability in Bram Stoker's version is what draws me to it.

These are the final images for my project; my characters and their companions.

Here are all my character coloured with Pro-markers and outlined with pigment liners. Some of the ink has bled over the lines so I'll have to correct this and any other mistakes in photoshop.

Below are some images of the development stages for my vampire's companion.   Cerberus Vampire's protector Scar to add character All three heads have different personalities   Horned leopard Vampire's protector Horns add a satanic/cult-ish look   Bat creature Vampires loving pet Vampire 'V' branding symbol Can be feisty
