How To Save A Dragon cover

Here is my cover design for my book How To Save A Dragon, by Annie Dalton, due out this September. The cover has been substantially altered for print for some reason and I'm not too pleased with the outcome. I was really pleased with the balance on this one and thought it really worked on several levels.

Oh well, that's publishing for you. You can buy the book in all the usual places on release.

How To Save A Dragon: DONE!

Hi All.

I finally finished work on How To Save A Dragon by Annie Dalton [pub. Random House] the week before last.

I was first sent the manuscript in March 2010. Several changes happened throughout the year and I only managed to start drawing proper in Feb of this year. I've had a load of other commitments to see to so that's why it's taken so long. Well, that and the fact that in February the amount of images in the book jumped from 12 to 74.

Needless to say my 6 month work schedule got a little more complicated.

I'm going to post some of the images from the book, all black ink line on white, over my websites between now and the release date in September. The sites, including this one, are listed below.
