Oh, wow! This cover art is AMAZING! Is this a painting that you scanned? It looks like you did a lot of work on it. Thank you very much for putting so much time and effort into this stunning piece of artwork! :-D

Thank you, [livejournal.com profile] rusty_armour! I am glad you like it. :-)

The drawing and the Baphomet are the internet findings that I played with a bit in piZap (I cut them out and put them together), the rest I did in Free Online Image Editor.

I'm glad I can create some art again. I haven't done much lately. I had no inspiration and even though I tried something, it just didn't work.

I'm happy that you've been able to create some art again, [livejournal.com profile] raven714. :-) It's great that you've been able to work with different tools, like piZap. I'll be able to provide a tiny bit of inspiration for you soon...

Have you considered creating cover art for other RoS stories that you like (just as a personal project for yourself)? I know you're shy about approaching other fic writers, but you could just do it for fun. For that matter, I could try contacting some writers on your behalf. I think most writers are thrilled to have artwork for their stories.

Another thought I had would be to create more artwork based on fanfic scenes that you like. For example, you made that beautiful piece of artwork with the bluebells after being inspired by that scene in Guivre.

I'll be able to provide a tiny bit of inspiration for you soon... - I am looking forward to it. :-)

Yes, I've considered it. Certainly there are many RoS stories that deserve a nice cover illustration. Maybe [livejournal.com profile] arthurrat and [livejournal.com profile] karen9 would be interested. I loved Bluemoonflower RoS stories. And then there are many Russian stories that I liked. It could be fun. I am a very shy person and I suffer from a social phobia so I would be grateful for your help, [livejournal.com profile] rusty_armour. It would be enough to know that they are not against me trying to create something inspired by their stories.

I'll happily contact any writer you'd like [livejournal.com profile] raven714. I'm sure both [livejournal.com profile] arthurrat and [livejournal.com profile] karen9 would be touched and flattered if you decided to create cover art for any of their stories. :-)

I'm in contact with Bluemoonflower, but she can be slow to respond to emails (for reasons that are beyond her control). Anyway, I can certainly send her an email if you'd like. I think she'd probably be very happy to have some cover art for one or more of her stories. :-)

Thank you, [livejournal.com profile] rusty_armour. It´s very kind of you.

I´ll be glad if you send Bluemoonflower an email. I´ll need some time to read her stories again and find the right images. :-)
And I´d gladly create the cover art for [livejournal.com profile] arthurrat and [livejournal.com profile] karen9.

I'll send an email to Bluemoonflower shortly. Like I said before, it might take her a while to respond, but I'm sure she'll be happy and flattered by your interest. :-)

Wow! This is dramatic and rather scary! And impressive.
