genre. romance,
remember this from like a month ago? And I said the end result wouldn't look the same? y e a, understatement of the month. (month, because ya girl is always over/understating shit)
The first draft was too dark for the story, and so I basically had to redo everything from scratch T.T this is why I don't like re-creating covers akfhjdlkfs but it's ok I guess
Anywayyyy, all of this took me forever and my brain died. Here is the process!
This is what I did about a month ago, trying to re-create the style of "Dangerous Love" (a cover I did about 6 months ago?).
It took so long to colour correct all the people, and just finding the right face claims as well T.T and then all the other colour corrections, as well as placing the butterflies (which, what do you know, also needed colour correcting for each), and the font was a struggle lmao
It ended up being too dark for the story so, yeet to the garbage it went-
I started all over again, and that's how we got this!
This isn't the end lol. so originally this was still a black bg, but then I had to change 2 of the face claims, and it didn't look so good anymore. So, I played with the background colour a bit, and then ended up changing the 3rd face claim to better match the other two (died tryna to color correct each).
The next thing was to add the subtitle, and scratches on the faces. And this mess happened
I had the idea of like making it look like someone actually printed this out and scratched the faces, as well as write mean "names" to each person or whatever. But it looks too crowded :/ And the subtitle looks trash lol
And so, we arrived to the (for now) final version!
It has that YA feel to it, and I have no idea if it's right but that's all the details I got lmao
The use of space still got me a bit meh, but oh well what can I do.
To the author, if you want them pls lmk which ones. And it's fine if u don't wanna claim them, but be sure to let me know!
That's it!!
I actually have 3 more covers to do, contrary to what I thought last time. I rlly need to learn how to count T.T (and also, this is why I like to have my forms in one place, cause otherwise I forget)
