Snare of Shadows by R.J. Irving

I've had the privilege of working with R.J. Irving on the cover-design for his first book in the Cry 4 Rest trilogy Snare of Shadows. The story focuses on a small group of friends aboard the colony ship The Hope. The Hope appears to be a normal colony ship on destination to a new home-world, however from the get-go it feels as though there are many underlying secrets to do with the true purpose of the ship and it's people that have been well concealed. R.J. Irving has taken a unique approach to writing this novel where the narrative is divided into diary entries from various authors. As you read through the story you'll begin to piece bits together, however, not everything is what it seems!

Plymouth University contacted me and asked me if I would create the illustration for their 2012/13 Alumni Magazine. I gladly accepted the challenge. I was pretty pumped to create this illustration but again I threw my time management out of the window so the final illustration isn't quite as in depth and well crafted as I would have liked. Hopefully it won't look too bad on the magazine itself. Anyhew, I'm grateful to have had this opportunity. Here's my initial draft design which we scraped because it stuck too close to the conventional blue/purple colour scheme.

Thanks everyone for stopping by, really appreciate it!

God bless you guys.

Helloooooo everyone! I'm dropping a post here to promote a wicked t-shirt by my friend Ondrej. So the original design itself is a superb screen-print that Ondrej created for his Death project for our practical dissertation at Uni.

He's uploaded his design onto Threadless and it needs YOUR vote to be made into a proper t-shirt! It's simple, just click a button.

Thanks everyone

God bless You.
