Hello there.
I was inspired to design some Dark Tower book covers a while back, just for fun. Thought i'd share here.

I really like all of those!
Yeah, I like them as well.
I like the DOTT cover and Wastelands cover the most, however. I think if someone saw those book covers sitting on the bookstore shelves, they'd be like "Woah, what the heck happens in this book?" and would be intrigued to read them. I do like what you did with the first one but I have to say it's my least favorite, but then again not much happens in the Gunslinger, so I guess it's only natural the cover matches suit. Oh, and great Railroad/cliffside image for WOTC.
The borders on top and bottom almost make me think of Scholastic for some reason, I guess cause for a while they had that red (?) banner on the tops and bottoms of the books.
Again, these are really cool, good stuff!
thank you both!
haha, i totally get the scholastic thing. your'e right.
The Gunslinger cover was first, and it is the MOST boring one for sure. As i was working on each one, i began putting more and more elements into them, not on purpose. When i was done with them, i did toy with the idea of going back into the first one and putting more into it. I actually still might, because i just found all my layered PSD files for this.
Thanks again.
Those are great, Mike! I think SOS is my favorite.

I just noticed how all the banners match the general color scheme of the artwork on the cover. Very nice. Oh, and as a PS, (this is really just my opinion too, so take it with a grain of salt.) since the color scheme in VII seems to be red, why not have a dark red banner? I'm not saying go eye-burning red or anything, since the colors of your other banners are subdued maybe a deep, rich crimson? Again, just my opinion/suggestion. Forgot to add that to my original post, and thought I'd give you a free bump
Very nice. I especially like the font.

That's pretty cool. My two favorites are Waste Lands and Wolves.
Some pretty awesome work there, Mike. Awesome way of summarising everything about each book and yet revealing absolutely nothing. I think my favourites are DotT and TWL.

I agree that these are great depictions of the idividual stories without giving away anything.I like the Wastlands.I feel like you captured that moment and setting very nicely.
