Five months later, the book is about to launch and I was able to go back to the rough ... just open the fine and light the model ... make a few changes, such as closing his eyes (Stephen is a dreamy character, this suits him), and in about fifteen minutes I had the whole cover done!
There's no way you could do anything remotely like this with a paintbrush, and the finished painting is gorgeous!
Incidentally, it's a heck of a good book. You can still get it, too, for Kindle, in 2024.
Trying to get through with work today, so I can do some new renders ...
