LitRPG Book Cover Design - Circuits & Sorcery: A World In Ruin
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
Hello,
I am looking to attempt to get a cover done. I have been looking around on Fiverr for a bit, but I haven't quite found the right person I don't think. So now I have branched out from Fiverr looking in other places. I am... I guess an Indie writer? I am not honestly sure. I have been working on my book for about seven years, but its still not done. But I have gotten to the point where I am releasing on Royal Road. Because of this, and some recommendations from the litrpg Writersguild group of Facebook I've struck out in search of someone who can do the cover within a budget I can afford. On Fiverr I've found a person who can deal with the background art I think, based on the works he has up, but he can't complete the overall cover, or character that according to everyone I talk to needs to be on the cover. But, his price is a bit high for me for only the art so I've been holding off.
I have basic descriptions of what I want, I even have Ai generated art that matches pretty closely with what I want, and I am currently using that as a temporary cover thanks to a kind person in the guild helping me out with typography but its not perfect, and if not for how the typography is currently applied you can really see some problems it with it. Which is to be expected.
I have include the Ai generations, as well as the current stock photo cover that I have. In addition to that I have included my vision on a pdf document. It contains the overall artist brief, and two options I have as a vision of my cover.
Please note, that if anything seems kind of robotic-like, its because I use Ai to correct for a language processing disability, it allows me to communicate in a more professional manner, and without the tons of typos and grammar issues that comes with the territory.
The book overall can be considered a Techno-Cultivation Saga.
Below is the synopsis:
In a world reshaped by the Gate Crisis, where monstrous creatures roam and the remnants of a human civilization lie scattered, a young Inhuman named Asher Alymmeris finds himself thrust into a perilous world of danger and discovery. Abandoned by a human society that fears and distrusts his kind, Asher lives a sheltered life in Dust Creek, a ramshackle frontier town clinging to the edges of a ruined metropolis. Hidden but nurtured by his parents, Elara and Thomas, two slightly notable Skill Engineers on the frontier.
But Asher's world is about to be shattered when forces, fueled by prejudice and a thirst for power, target his parents. Driven by a fierce protectiveness and a burgeoning rage, Asher embarks on a perilous quest to save them, confronting his own fears and unleashing the full potential of his latent abilities. His journey leads him beyond the familiar confines of Dust Creek and into the heart of the hollows, where he encounters a grizzled adventurer named Gareth Brim and his band of Crimson Raiders, a group of seasoned brothers who live on the fringes of society.
Asher's path unfolds amidst danger and opportunity, as he encounters a world teeming with monsters, Awakened individuals wielding extraordinary powers, and the remnants of a technology that holds the key to a brighter future. He discovers the true depths of his powers, forging new alliances and facing down enemies who threaten everything he holds dear. In a world where the lines between good and evil blur, Asher must forge his path.
Asher Alymmeris is a young Methuselah, an Inhuman vampire with immense potential, who hides his true nature while working in his adoptive parents' technology repair shop. Despite his youthful appearance, Asher possesses a sharp intellect, a thirst for knowledge, and a complex inner world shaped by his experiences of rejection and his desire for a better future.
Born as a Methuselah, Asher was cast out as a child due to his Inhuman heritage. He was found and raised by Elara and Thomas, a compassionate couple who owned a shop specializing in repairing Skill Gear and technology. Growing up surrounded by advanced tech fueled Asher's curiosity and desire to understand the world. Despite facing prejudice and discrimination, he developed a strong sense of self and a determination to carve his own path.
Asher's thirst for knowledge drives him to explore the mysteries of the System, A-Energy, and the universe itself. His upbringing instilled a fascination with technology and its potential, which he seeks to unravel and master. Having experienced rejection and prejudice firsthand, Asher desires to see a world where people without power can live freely and without fear.
Asher's decisions are primarily guided by logic and reason, as he carefully analyzes situations and prioritizes pragmatism. However, his past experiences and desire for a better future also influence his choices, occasionally leading him to take calculated risks or act outside conventional morality, aligning with his chaotic neutral nature.
Despite his youthful appearance, Asher possesses a brilliant mind, a versatile skillset, and remarkable self-discipline and patience. However, his emotional vulnerability, disregard for emotions at times, potential for isolation, the burden of his potent abilities, and his youthful inexperience create challenges for him as he navigates the world and pursues his goals.
