Cover Art for "La Biblia de los Caídos, Tomo I del Testamento de Jon"

Final Cover Art
 By the end of 2014 I was commissioned to do the cover art for the new appendix of The Bible of the Fallen (La Biblia de los Caídos). The Bible of the Fallen is a book's saga created by Fernando Trujillo Sanz and this book has been written by Juan G. Mesa.

Juan G. Mesa provided a good briefing with some ideas and references focused in the hooded main character in a field with the choice of having an old building surrounded by flames. From that briefing I did some sketches changing the point of view and the zooming. The chosen one was the first one from the series below but we decided to enlarge the moon like happened in other sketches.

From that sketch I go on painting with colors. The general blue has something to do with the first cover of the saga that I did a couple of years before and we used a red sweatshirt to stand out the character's silhouette.

Thanks to Fernando Trujillo and Cesar García for trusting me again and thanks to Juan González Mesa for his collaboration in the artwork process.
And, thank you all for visiting my Cave

Best,
Charro
