Description
A draft for the cover of Matthew Dow Smith's novel, NIGHT FOLK.
Photography and design by me. Line art and logo by Matthew Dow Smith. The model for "Victoria" is 13-year-old Madison.
NIGHT FOLK is the first novel by comics artist and writer Matthew Dow Smith, known for his work on Hellboy, Starman, Doctor Who, Supernatural, Mirror's Edge, Witchblade, and more.
The author is raising the money to produce this novel using a Kickstarter pre-order and fundraiser. Please check it out-- In the next 6 days, he needs to raise $1,000 or the book can't happen.
Twelve year old Victoria Thompson has always felt like an outsider. While other girls her age are spending time gossiping about boys and reading teen magazines, she's more interested in spooky stories and drawing monsters in the margins of her notebook.
With no friends to speak of, Victoria doesn't mind when her family has to move to a small town in Upstate New York. If anything, she's looking forward to a fresh start at a new school, and hoping to meet someone who shares her interest in the odd and unusual.
But Victoria is about to make some new friends who are odder and more unusual than anything she could have imagined...

I realize she may be in the process of standing up, but due to the shadows, it rather looks like she has dwarfism. Now, if that's appropriate, then I think the lighting is crisp and I really like the drawn/realism juxtaposition. I also like the color from her hair and clothes against the tone on tone background.
I think the overall feel of the photo is distracted by my opinion of her body shape, but I really like where this cover was going.
