Artist's Comments

This is my vision of the Wheel of Time Collectors Book, that after the conclusion of the series contain all the main books, three prequels and the guide.

It's leather-bound with silver edge-protectors and top grade paper. Size about A3-ish.

Imagine having children that discover this book in the library.. I myself would have been ecstatic even at my present age, not to mention when I was a kid myself..

Please note that the name Wheel of Time and the snake wheel logo is trademarked, and not by me.
(made exclusively in Photoshop)

The leather texture I got from [link]

The download (original) is 1754x2800px.

As always, advanced critique encouraged.. ..or simply a friendly one..

That would be one heavy book! I like what you've done with the cover, I've had a try at creating leather and it sucked big time :D have all the books till book 11, darn bookstores in my country don't seem to care anymore about importing the series! :( good stuff tho! that would be something great to own.

Yeah, I used a texture found here at deviantart, I suspect it would much worse than yours if I tried! I forgot to link to it in my description, so thanks for making me realize it!

Well, that book shortage is kind of strange, seeing WoT are big international bestsellers.. I guess they will come to their senses eventually!

And, hey, thanks for the comment in general - you're my first ever @ deviantart!
:iconflowing-crunchy:
you're very welcome! yea, I think it's kind of hard to get people respond to your art in the start too unless it's really epic (unless you doing nude or anime fan art) :) try "spamming" your art in thumbshare [link] so people will become more aware of you :D they're supposed to give some comments there if they bother.

have a brilliant week!

It's beautiful. Although I think there will still have to be multiple books: maybe two or at most three for the Wheel of Time Omnibus.

But this cover will work wonders. I love the silver edge-protector.
:iconcornfleks:
Thanks!

I guess it must be multiple, but the consept of that one book, the book of mysteries and an epic tale - that's the child in me talking again - that's the main thing to me.

Fight like you've never lost before,
Love like you've never been hurt before,
And live like you'll die tomorrow.

I say we invent a never ending story style book by then, one that always opens right to the page you wanted, then that one version would not only be possible, but oh so much cooler
:iconjaqx-textures:
v atmospheric, great job! your deviation will be featured on my journal soon...

Wow!!
I'm making an animation, and I want the menu to look like a book. So I had already spent an hour on Photoshop trying to make a decent book cover using this texture when I found this deviation of yours! It's just perfect!! :D
My I ask how you did the letters?
Thanks!
