Mementoes of Mai by Helmy Kusuma
What's the genre? What is it you like or don't like about this cover?
Does it make you want to know more about the book? Does it make you want
to BUY the book? Discuss.
Close, but not quite there. The drop shadow around the heart is very hard. It doesn't look like it's laying on the sand. It needs a better masking and blending job.
I don't like the title font. Too thin and close to the edges. The author font is actually okay.
I'm with Robin, work a little bit more with photoshop to get the heart to look naturally on the sand. I would suggest that you use the Liquify Tool (just a small touch) on the sand to make it look like more of an impression.
