Final Book Cover

This is my final book cover. Photoshop tested my patience to the limit on this piece. Trying to make the "spark" spark became my one and only mission for days on end...
This is the result :)

 After the week of research, i decided to stay with the theme of good vs evil as the theme of my concept for the book cover of the Crucible.

Here are my priliminary ideas and concepts..

In the Crucible, it is one girl who sparks off all the evil. She manipulates the others, the "good, wholesome" villagers. This is where i got the idea for the matches. I neede d it to show a spark of a match. This seemed near impossible.

My secong concept was to show the cracks in the foundation. The town of Salem seemed to be a solid community with no evil. That was until Abigail Williams rebelled and destructed the scene by showing the truth of the salem villagers.

My third idea was to turn something known for its good reputation and turn it evil. I wanted to turn the image of a cross upside down as if to say religion has fallen which it does in the play.

However, I was soon told that this is a sign for St Peter and so it doesnt make much sense. This was my favourite idea until this piece of information. Murphy's Law I suppose.
