What A Carve Up! - New Project!

As previously mentioned I'm now starting the Penguin Adult's prize for What A Carve Up! as always I began with a thumbnail sketch, however this time i had multiple ideas that i couldn't decide between, so mapped a bunch out to help me decide.

Mapping out quick thumbnail sketches like this really helps give you an idea of the composition, one of the most important factors is weather or not your design would actually work as a book cover, and which ones work better.
I liked both the top left and bottom right designs, but eventually decided on the bottom right design as it's a bit of a break from my usual double page spread 'scene' designs. The initial Ink work will be up soon.
