'Ash of Ambitions' Paperback Bookcover

It's long past due for a paperback edition of my second novel, "Ash of Ambitions." You can see the original ebook cover (for now, I'll be replacing it with this one soon) as well as the synopsis here: blarglesplect.com/books-storie… Unfortunately the artist I originally worked with for the cover only did one in ebook formatting so I had to make my own, this gave me lots of opportunity to really reimagine this introduction to the character of Ash and the world of the Eldritch Elysium series and I can't say it wasn't fun!

It still needs a little work (I've got to scale it for Createspace, I worked with Lulu dimensions at the start, and title/description/author name needs added) but it's done enough to show the world! This was also the easiest book cover I've ever done, fairly tripped right off the fingers thanks in no small part to the wonderful stock artist's whose work I used in the making.

Many, many thanks goes to the following artists without who's stock I would be lost:
jagged-eye for the model Laure (who is PERFECT as Ash) jagged-eye.deviantart.com/art/…
lastsunday for their large grunge textures lastsunday.deviantart.com#/art…
LucieG-Stock for their remnants of an old grist mill stock lucieg-stock.deviantart.com/ar…
GloomWriter for their lovely ash images gloomwriter.deviantart.com/art…
M3los93 for their hot coals resource m3los93.deviantart.com/art/Coa…
Queenselphie for their ruins by the sea stock queenselphie.deviantart.com/ar…
RockStocks for their rock and ruins stock rockstocks.deviantart.com/art/…
And once again thanks to zummerfish for the amazing rust and stars texture set (my only gripe is that I just realized they're rather small for my usual working sizes): zummerfish.deviantart.com/art/…
