        Do I have anyone here I can commission to do a book cover? My normal artist, I think, is too busy at the moment and the poor guy will work himself to death rather than let anyone down.

        @jonn_blanchard Hello, I'm a graphic designer with illustration experience. Feel free to have a look at my website (https://futurehorizondesign.net.au) and let me know if I can help.

          I wrote a book years ago and hired an illustrator. He did good work, but it cost $300 against the net book sales of $10 (at best). Art is hard, I get that, and when I release music, the best I have ever earned from a track is about $150. I'm pretty much forced to use my own photos for covers.

              @jonn_blanchard Depends, how shitty do you want it to look, my friend? My kids have some crayons, pencils, and pens, but I have very little artistic talent. We could probably whip something up. My going rate is $3.50 for the whole thing, soup to nuts.

              That's a weird phrase, isn't it?

              I'm not taking this seriously, so you shouldn't take me seriously. Love you! 😘

                I should have put more of a steer in, but I was going for brevity. The book is a comedy-fantasy set in the modern world and also an Orc dimension 200 years in the past that's joined with a portal. The heroes are a sandwich shop owner destined to be earths defender and his accountant Susan. The art style i'm seeing in my head is like Josh Kirby's work for Terry Pratchett - but that's probably because Terry is one of my inspirations

                    I should also add that i'm not interested in AI generated art, if I was I could just go and use one of the websites myself.

                      @Magicmix1 In my head it's in the style of Josh Kirby's work for Terry Pratchett. But i'm open, and realise budget is going to also be a factor

                        @jonn_blanchard What are you hoping for in terms of style?
                        I can do comic book & fine art styles.
                        This is a cover from my own comic which was done a few years ago. I can work in a few styles.

                        @JoBlakely Hi Jo, in my head i'm thinking a similar style to what Josh Kirby did for Terry Pratchett - but i'm also realistic and know that might end up beyond my budget https://wiki.lspace.org/images/c/c9/Cover_The_Colour_Of_Magic.jpg

                          @jonn_blanchard I don’t know if my style interests you, but I’m a non-AI artist that can do a semi-realistic fantasy style, might be within your budget too.
