This is just a try to reproduce my vision of the cover of most famous novels by Stephen King - The Dark Tower I -The Gunslinger. And one of my favorite, too.
Here you can see the original cover.


The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.
The desert was the apotheosis of all deserts, huge, standing to the sky for what might have been parsecs in all directions. White; blinding; waterless; without feature save for the faint, cloudy haze of the mountains which sketched themselves on the horizon and the devil-grass which brought sweet dreams, nightmares, death. An occasional tombstone sign pointed the way, for once the drifted track that cut its way through the thick crust of alkali had been a highway and coaches had followed it. The world had moved on since then. The world had emptied.

The text is from Stephen King's THE DARK TOWER I and is copy-right.

The work is very detailed and beautiful. It is certainly unique. The style is completely inappropriate for the material... and I love it. Please do the others.

Roland is very well done, but I am drawn to the stunning background. The bird and tree are very well done.

Не ти трябва смелост, а просто да седнеш и да ги направиш. ;)
