New info, 12/10/13

My poor dear workhorse of a laptop is making its desire to retire known. RIP, laptop. You have served me well for many a year.

But this means I have to replace it as soon as I can so it can finally earn its well-deserved rest. Soooo...20% off covers! Wooo!

Here's my most recent commissioned cover, obviously a paperback:

You can also see lots of premades suitable for historical fiction here:

History is rad!

I am discounting my usual design fee by 20%, so $100 $80 for a paperback and ebook cover package, or $60 $48 for an ebook cover only. Premades are $40 $32. The cost does not include the purchase of any stock photos that may be necessary; those are charged at cost.

Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions.

I think you're allowed one promo thread in the WC, which you can update weekly. I'm sure a mod will drop by and explain the rules. In the meantime, thanks for showing us your covers ... bookmarked for future reference!

 

[ElHawk]

Awesome...thank you for the clarification!

Very nice, I really love the use of pre-raphaelite work. Is that Waterhouse you've used?

 

[ElHawk]

I don't think there's any Waterhouse in this bunch, but I do have a lot of his stuff on my external drive o' gorgeous artwork.  I believe this is all Faolero and Tadema, if I remember correctly.  Glad you like it!

Hey, party people. I just wanted to share with you my most recent commissioned cover, for a sweet romance for the YA set . I am still accepting ebook cover commissions for half price through the end of the month...$50! $25 extra gets you a print cover as well. PM me if interested.

Libby, those are some lovely covers.

I'm a little bit worried on your behalf though if you are using images of paintings that are in some galleries, some of them now have the copyright or the right to commercial licensing of the paintings they house. So even if the artist is long deceased, the gallery is looking for money to license the images they have.

For example, The Tate Gallery:

I bumped it.

Nuts!!  Writer.ly is having errors galore at the moment and nobody's portfolios will load.  Oh well...I'll try again later. 

 

[Christa Wick]

your link for your portfolio at the bottom of your OP also is bad.

Not sure what's up but I can't see any cover images on this page: http://www.historereader.com/premadehistorical/

Is it just my browser? TQ.

 

[ElHawk]

Hmmmm...could be your browser.  Seems to be working just fine for me on IE, Firefox, and Chrome.  And on my Android phone.  Anybody else having any issues with it?  If so, I can try poking around the backend of the site to see if something is amiss (gremlins).

The link works in Chrome.

The link works in Chrome.

I tried Chrome too. Same thing as Safari. Can't see any cover photos. I see "previous" and "next" but no photos.

Boy, that is weird.
