Some color studies for the Kushiel's Dart book cover redesign. I really liked the top thumbnail, even though my gut chose the middle one. I decided to work them both up to color study level to see if that'd help me make my decision.

Even still, the winner is the closer crop of the character because it's just so much more readable than the aerial shot. However, I'm sure the other might return as a fan art piece later on! There's something about it I really love.
