New Book Cover Design Now In Print

Another one of my book cover designs has went to print. Did this one about a year ago now and really cool to see it in print form. I now have a few books out in the shops now, if you see this one or Tideland in your local store pick them up for a good read and some decent artwork.

Just received my copies of "Tideland" by Mitch Cullin with my cover design.


So I just received my copies of the amazing novel "Tideland" by Mitch Cullin with my cover design. I have to say it looks really good in person. I have been looking at it on the screen for the last year or two looking forward to seeing it on the cover when the fourth print edition was released. Today I got my first copies and was really impressed with the quality.

You can now purchase the book with my cover on Amazon and in a good book store near you very soon.

I also recommend you watching the movie of the same title directed by Terry Gilliam. A great movie and really captures the feeling of the book.

Also check out Mitch Cullin's other books, have a search on Amazon and if you like Tideland check out the rest.

My Artwork now the official cover design for the novel Tideland by Mitch Cullin.



So my cover design for Tideland is now officially the printed cover. Here is a photo from the author Mitch Cullin showing a few copies. Thanks again to Mitch for using my artwork for the cover of his awesome book. I recommend giving it a read and also watching the film version directed by Terry Gilliam.


Just a quick post on the run, will do a longer one when I have time.

'The Last Dragon King' Book Cover



A new freelance design job I just finished. I like how the painting turned out in this one. This was such a fun project to do and David gave me free reign to create this artwork and i'm really happy with the outcome.

David has written a great book and it was a pleasure to create this cover for him. Keep a look out as the book is being released very soon.

Here is a nice testimonial he gave me:

"Andrew's site was the first one I came across in the search for a cover designer and I fell in love with his work straight away. I knew he was the right one. When it came to actually receiving my cover design he did not disappoint. I was almost shaking it was so perfect. Andrew took the time to read my work to get a better feel for it and this is reflected in his vision of my cover. He produced exactly what I had in mind." - David Edward Ratcliffe

Tae Kwon-do Flyer

This is a flyer I recently created for a Tae Kwon-do instructor in London to promote his classes. I had some fun with the design as he was more open to whatever ideas I thought appropriate. He wanted something modern that would stand out from the crowd so this is what we ended up with at the end. I am really happy with the outcome and so is the customer which is what I aim for when doing a project.

Clay Model Attempt 2



A small monster face I made out of clay recently. This was really good fun and I think I will buy some more and see what I can do with it.

This will be painted soon, my elbow is in agony and can hardly use a paintbrush but when its healed and I have painted this model I will upload it here.

I Am Legend Book Cover Re-Design Alternative Versions.



This is a different take on the I Am Legend Book Cover i re-designed as part of my fourth year honours degree in University last year.

For the actual final design I went with a black and white version but this was only to please the tutors, I always liked the colour versions better and here are two of the alternative takes on the cover. The greens and yellows symbolise the infection that is responsible for the vampirism in the book.

I personally prefer the cover with the more subdued and muted colours, I just feel that visually it works better but the more lime green bright cover would certainly attract a passer bye's attention on a book store shelf.
