Okay, this is really random. I should be working on book 2, but I got on a “cover thing” yesterday. Now, remember, Kregel will probably not use exactly what I send them, but I want to send them something SO FUN that they might say, “Hey, we can’t get better than this.” LOL
With that in mind, after hours of tweaking and messing around, I came up with these two concepts. They are actually the same image, but one is CLOSE UP and one is a little ZOOMED out in order to see more of the setting. Which do you prefer? Vote in the comments: #1 CLOSE UP and #2 ZOOMED out. And of course add WHY you like the one you do. Then I’ll know which one to send Kregel as a “cover concept.”
If you are on a laptop or tablet, you might be able to see them side-by-side. On a phone, not so much. Let me know! It’s so fun to share with you guys!
#1 Close up
#2 Zoomed out a bit

I like #2: Zoomed out because it shows more logs and makes it easier to picture them doing what they’re doing. 🙂 I also like the bigger mountain.

Oh. I just saw that the mountains are two different sizes. LOL Actually, the more accurate is the one with the mountain farther away. But hey. Does it matter than much?

I like the zoomed out one. The logs in the foreground of the close up one seem a bit distracting.

I think 2# is better because it’s more like a book cover and not so much a painting.

Hi, my name is Parker Allison. I am a huge fan of your books! I can’t wait to read the Timberland Trails! I am writing a book series right now that got inspired from yours! My favorite cover is number #2 I agree with Emmy, Lydia, and Anonymous.

I like #2 better.

They are both great and create interest. In # 1, the young man’s head and arm are a bit lost in the color of the building’s pilings. Not a deal breaker for me. But I like seeing their expressions up close and personal. I agree with Lydia; #2 looks more like a book cover.

Even though most people seem to like number 2, I like number one because it’s more focused on the characters.

I like number two zoomed out!! It’s gives more details of the surroundings but still keeps the characters as the main subject.
