Incorporating important elements of his story, I aimed to offer a glimpse into the world inside the book and set the mood.

And he was lost.
Blood. Everywhere, blood. All over.\"")

I rendered the model's body, including wings, in Daz 3D and added the head of the woman that the author used images of in her previous book covers. I tried my best to match the body's lighting with that of the woman's head to make her look realistic. A whole bunch of painting was also required to add shadow from her hair that was partially taken from stock images, too.
Long, flowy fabrics were added to the model's dress and bent where I wanted them to flow to.
The character should have silver rune tattoos on her arms and palms. I added two magical rune symbols above her hands to show off magical abilities.
To add more drama, there are loose feathers flowing in the wind towards the viewer which also create more depth.")

I decided to have flowing, wrapping chains around the knife in which we can see a reflection of the main character. To give it a nice fantasy vibe, I added the glowing light effects in the background while making the image pop.")

The artwork would fit a fantasy story that incorporates a character with abilities like summoning darkness/shadow/a dark power with a magical object like a gem or crystal. Little changes can be made, like the floating crystal I placed above his hand that he does the summoning with.
While the black smoke, background and crystal are made using photos, the character is posed and lit in the 3D app, Daz3D. His pose and looks are easily adjusted which gives a lot of option also for a series of books.")

Über uns
I create Fantasy photo illustration for book covers. My work is a combination of photos, painted details and sometimes 3D elements.
I'd love to build up my freelance business with more book covers since that is what my heart is beating for - to let a fantasy become reality inside of an image.
