Victims Book Series
Commission 2017-Present
The Victims series is a trilogy born from the mind of Preston Lingle, an alumnus of Webster University, who majored in Video Game Design with a focus in Narrative Design. He is passionate about writing honest stories grounded in character with fleshed-out world design. I am glad to call him a personal friend of mine, and when he approached me about this project I was ecstatic. I have worked with him so far to create 2 book covers as well as a full character portrait series, thus far.
Progression of sketch to final cover for Victims Part 1, created using Photoshop. Type was chosen and placed by the author.
Funding for this book was possible through Kickstarter. On Kickstarter, the author created stretch goals for funding that
added on various items or extras. Shown are two of those stretch goals, the left being a double sided bookmark featuring
the emblems of the antagonist and protagonist. The right is a full illustration of the two main characters that can be used
as a desktop wallpaper or a print.

Victims Part 2 is a direct continuation in story from Part 1. On the left is the mood board I received from the author to use
for both the front and back covers of this edition. The right image is my sketch from a consultation on the front cover.
