I chose a warm vintage orange as the dominant color to evoke nostalgia, with a rotary phone as the central object, an iconic symbol that instantly transports the reader back in time.
To make the design unique across the entire book, I wrapped the phone cord around the spine, seamlessly connecting the front and back covers into one continuous composition.
The entire cover was hand-drawn and illustrated from scratch, with no AI-generated elements or stock images. Every detail was carefully crafted to balance simplicity, storytelling, and visual impact.
If you're looking for a custom hand-drawn book cover or illustration, feel free to message me anytime. I'd love to help bring your vision to life.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/164/164405/attachment_164405144 "Here is another seamless wraparound cover I created for a low fantasy novel. Every element was illustrated completely by hand, creating a continuous scene that transitions from a lush forest on the back cover to a dry, desolate landscape on the front, reflecting the story's world and atmosphere.
The sword, mist, and architecture are key elements of the novel. Instead of placing the sword in the ground, I designed it to pierce the letter D in the title, creating a unique interaction between the typography and illustration. The massive tree trunk on the spine serves as a natural divider, making the transition between the front and back covers feel seamless.
Everything was hand drawn—no AI-generated elements or stock images were used. I believe every book deserves original artwork that is crafted exclusively for its story.")

For this horror novel, I chose a dark color palette to create a mysterious, unsettling atmosphere. The boy is the main focal point because the story centers on his striking green eye, allowing it to immediately capture the reader's attention and spark curiosity.
Rather than using a plain divider for the spine, I incorporated a cemetery gate column to create a natural transition between the front and back covers while reinforcing the eerie mood.
Every element of this cover was illustrated completely by hand. No AI-generated content or stock images were used. As an illustrator, I believe every story deserves original artwork that reflects its unique identity. My goal is to create covers that are not only visually compelling but also exclusive works of art crafted specifically for each author's story.")
:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/164/164249/attachment_164249435 "The client provided an initial sketch to communicate the vision for the book cover. From there, I transformed the concept into a fully hand-drawn painted illustration.
What the client loved most was the more dynamic perspective, the fantasy-inspired hand-painted style, the color palette, and the overall composition that brought the scene to life.

Hi, I am Nero Bernales from the Philippines. I am a digital painter and book-cover specialist. I love digital painting because it expresses my emotions and brings my imagination to life.
Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce; then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine. ( Proverbs 3:9-10 ).
