Cover Art for Hound in Blood and Black



My friend the Screaming Guppy has written a totally badass zombie story. It’s got all the rampaging undead fun you would expect, plus a cool twist which sets it apart from what’s been done. I did two mock covers. One attempts to show a scene in an arena built over the ocean, where sharks swim, waiting to devour the losers. I didn’t really capture it, so I tried another cover, this time simply going for something creepy and zombiesque.
