Project Description


Hi,

I have written a book that is currently being edited.

This book will be self-published using a print on demand service and sold mainly on Amazon.

The book is called ‘HOUSE SHARE HERO’ and I have attached a link, which shows how I would like the cover to look.

http://marvelkids.marvel.com/cyos/212328/name/Steve/hero/house%20share%20hero)

The book is about my experiences as a house share landlord, along with investment techniques and guidance for other landlords.

The amendments I am looking to make to this image for my cover are/include:

· Rolled up/Scrunched up Tenancy agreement in right hand.
· Bunch of keys on belt or maybe hanging off a ring in the left hand
· A row of houses each side of him trailing off behind into an artificial horizon in the distance (Houses about waist high)
· The cape to fit slightly better over the shoulders.
· The eyes to draw any browser to the books cover.
· In Superman style writing the word ‘HOUSE’ over his right shoulder.
· In Superman style writing the word ‘SHARE’ over his left shoulder.
· In Superman style writing the word ‘HERO’ below or between his feet.
· In Superman style writing the letters ‘HSH’, ‘HsH’ or H on his chest logo.


The images I am looking for are for the book cover, which should be 6 x 9 inches and an image for Amazon, which should be square and display the image very well at:

40 x 40 pixels
75 x 75 pixels
240 x 240 pixels
500 x 500 pixels

I will also be using the image for the website so want to ‘Own it’ once done.

I will provide you with the book ‘Aiming at Amazon’ which will give you full details of how the image should be formatted to work best with the printing company and on the site.

If you are able to help with this I look forward to your quote.

Kind Regards
Steve Julien

Proposal:
Hi Steve,

I find this project very challenging. From my profile you will see that I am a fashion designer who can work on graphic design as well. Though I do not normally do character illustrations, I have done a lot of figure drawings previously, I am excellent in drawing, both hand-drawing and drawing using computer softwares.

Looking at the link you gave shows that your cover can be easily designed using Illustrator + Photoshop, but that will depend on your specific requirements of course. By providing all the details you need already, this makes it a lot easier to understand what you need and for me to confirm to you that I can do this job.
I also work a lot on fonts when I design labels for example and I know that a book cover requires excellent font to be eye-catching besides a good image.

I am very familiar with these super hero images, having read loads of these comic books in the past. (Used to sketch my fav characters as well) And I must say (even if not relevant here) you are spot on with the current trend in fashion, 'Super Hero' being one of the themes at the moment.

Be assured that each image that I produce is well researched beforehand. In this case, it will be the background you need for this cover.

I work full-time but I am very organised and will dedicate the time needed for your project so that you get the work done by your deadline and to your satisfaction. I am a perfectionist as well and will not deliver anything that is not to the client's satisfaction. I am happy when the client is happy.

Well, if you are interested to know more about my abilities, have any query or want to take things further, please contact me.
