《Universe Online》[Vol. 1] Cover Art Competition!!!
Advertisement
[Starting Post - 2/11/15]
Okay guys, I've finally decided to put this out here.
With the official end of volume 1, there remains only one last important detail.... THE COVER ART~!
The cover art is something important for a book. Its often the first thing that catches a persons attention. The explosions and guns on modern adventure novels. The clashing of swords and shields by knights on horseback for the medieval period. Great mages and wizards calling down storms of fire or ice or Dragons in pure fantasy...
These things catch the eyes and also reveal somethin about the story they represent as well. VR tends to be a harder thing to do a cover for, especially a sci-fi VR like Universe Online. It is both a near-future sci-fi and a distant-future hard science fiction web novel. That means the cover has to be able to cover both, which may well be impossible.
So here's the deal. I need a cover both here on RRL... and I've decided that I'm going to bundle up the volume for sell on Amazon. I may end up choosing two different pieces for these two things, or the same one for both.
The winner can request a commission of me to use the art work for sale. I'm more than willing to hash out details for that, or simply buy it straight up (Up to a certain amount. I don't have a whole lot of money, sadly). Or you could damn well let me pay you $50.00 for winning, for those not too worried about it!
So, if anyone is interested, send me a PM here on the forum and let me know! Feel free to include links to drafts or whatnot. I don't mind if the work is digital or hand-drawn. You are free to use any subject matter or reference from the Universe Online story, and may request additional detail or clarification from me if needed.

Alive
At the center of a now unmoving battlefield the remains of a corpse rose from the others. A pile of bones held together by unknown means looked over the cadaver covered soil into the starry night. "What are those? Where am I? Who am I? What is my purpose?" Words formed questions in its head, none of which had an answer... For now, as a thought creeped up in its mind giving a reason to its movements: "I want to know" [Hello everyone, before you start reading this, if you want to read this, do know that this is just an idea that suddently appeared in my mind and I wanted to write it down so I'm not sure when the updates will appear though I did imagine the whole story {More like the beginning and the end}.
