First draft of the new book cover!
Added 2020-11-02 20:22:09 +0000 UTCArtist's first draft on the new book cover. Still needs work.
I'm leaning towards #1, although the artist said "Whoops, hang on, I meant to send you #2 instead". #1 just feels more "Elaine" to me, although #2 has nicer "motion"
To be clear: Elaine's going to hit adulthood in this book, and the cover artwork reflects it. I'd also planned for Elaine to become an adult in book 1, but, well, things happened.
Things might still happen in book 2, we'll see

I definitely like 1 more but my biggest issue I with both is the bare shoulders/low cut top. It doesn’t seem like it would go with an active lifestyle (lowcut too and high speed running is called let’s flash the town). Amusingly I like 1’s look more and 2’s outfit more (the reinforced neck loop to keep her clothes up especially)

2020-11-02 20:52:13 +0000 UTCNumber one looks for fitting but I think number two is still a great piece.

2020-11-02 20:48:13 +0000 UTCI asked that same question on discord and was told that it shows Elaine as an adult and no longer a minor ;)

2020-11-02 20:42:33 +0000 UTC#2 Looks too classy / femme fatale for Elaine. Does not really fit her personality imo. Otherwise, looks good !
