Following a critique I got back of my Tell-Tell Heart I decided to listen to their very good advice, and try to antique the cover, as just didn't quite fit with the antiqued look of the inside pages. So I put some paint on it. Which not only added the needed age, but also brought out all the detail in the shapes! I love it!

The Tell-Tale Heart - ok, I lied, but now it's really finished
Following a critique I got back of my Tell-Tell Heart I decided to listen to their very good advice, and try to antique the cover, as just didn't quite fit with the antiqued look of the inside pages.

OOH! So so beautiful! Antiquing really helped it although, I thought it was amazing even before the paint job.
ReplyDeleteI agree with KarleighJae, that it is very beautiful and that I also liked it before. The antiquing has made a difference though. It's great.
ReplyDeletei followed your journey making this book through the rss-feed in my google-reader. Now I come out of hiding to tell I'm in awe with this project and your artwork. really amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I love it now with the new cover.
ReplyDeleteI think it looked great before, and good now! The before version had a crisp, new feel, while this one has a very appropriate aged look. Again, great work!
