The final book cover
The final book cover with the covertext
The final book cover with a variation we tried with a throne of bones in the background.
Of the three sketches i provided, this was the one we decided to go with. Where the three protagonists are overshadowed and kind of framed by the villains in a triangular composition.
Another of the sketches i provided, this moment in the book was just as the main protagonist arrived with a magical train in a forest.
third sketch i provided was the main trio infront of the pyramid structure in the book. I really liked the idea of the three characters framed within a triangle. The same composition as the one we decided to go with.
Early progress shot i found.
