I created these for a publisher<\/strong> to give them an example of what I was thinking for a book cover for Merlin’s Blade. <\/p>\n

My son, Leighton<\/a><\/strong>, portrays the blind Merlin, and my daughter, Adele<\/strong>, with the harp (from a photo when she was sixteen) portrays Natalenya. <\/p>\n

So, without further ado, here are the book covers<\/strong> (click to see a hi-res version):<\/p>\n

\"Merlin's<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Merlin's<\/a><\/p>\n

Note that I’d like to completely redo the blue fire<\/strong> emanating from the stone. This might cause many of the other elements to change, either in composition or position.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I would be interested which of the two you prefer<\/strong> … to see Merlin’s face (sample 2), or to keep it a mystery (sample 1)?<\/p>\n
