This was my first final cover that I came up with. When I started this project my first intension was to produce a realistic looking cover, most likely using the media paint. After doing some realistic sketches in pencil, I decided I would experiment with a more cartoon style as well, as this seemed to be a strong point for me in the previous project. I actually really liked the results I got from drawing Mr.Toad in this style and decided to take it forward as well as the idea of the realistic version. I'm very happy with how this outcome looks. I think its eye catching and would appeal to a young audience especially, but isn't too childish not to catch the eye of an older audience too.
This is my second version for The Wind in the Willows cover. I'm very pleased with how this cover turned out, especially as I had a few difficulties getting the background right. The two covers are very different and stand out for different reasons. I haven't left a single bit of white in the background for this cover, which makes its really interesting and makes you want to look at it. When I asked people for their opinions this cover was definitely the majority of peoples favourite, so if I was to take one forward and submit it, it would most likely be this one.
