THE STAND BY STEPHEN KING

ORIGINALLY POST-APOCALYPTIC DRAMA

ALT COVERS BY C.DELANEY

WESTERN


MYSTEREY


EROTICA


Hi Guys,
This is Project 2: Genre Switching.
I throughly enjoyed reading The Stand by Stephen King. It's a great book about humans struggling to live after a deadly virus has killed most of the world population. Then the Devil + God start building armies from the survivors. 
Since this was a drama book, I decided to go with 3 different genres of books = Western, Mystery & Erotica.
Each cover has it's own distinctive feel to embody their specific genre. Let me know if you feel that I have successfully re-branded this book by just changing the cover.
I used CS5 Illustrator entirely for this project.
Cheers

  3. I really like the second and last one the most, I feel the rope is to photoshop, and would look better as a vector graphic. But the Erotic one is hilarious. Good work.

  4. They all look great, I like the second one the best just because of the very minimalist approach.

  7. I think all three are very solid and polished looking designs. I like the soul in the background and how it is lit up a little more by the light. Great effect.

  11. All three covers are nicely done. However, I like the Erotica cover due to the choice of colors and layout. Great use of patterns and texture.

  12. The second cover is really awesome; the spotlight over part of the skull really catches my eye for some reason. Great job on all three!
