Um... was that title enticing enough to make you click on this thread?

Did it work? Cool!

Alright, listen up this is my way of giving back to this community by shedding light on some stories by their art!

Imagine this as some sort of fantasy league. We'll start off simple, and if this thread (and subsequent threads) get enough traction then maybe we can evolve this into an actual tournament, but for now, this is the test run.

For this round, I am submitting this cover for battle. From: Let's Play: Chronicles of Zurefgar 


Submit your favorite cover for battle!

Nice cover!

Here is a cover-teaser for a story I'm releasing soon. It's simple but I like it.


The story is a penguin isekai, where the MC has to hide his intelligence

Ooh! Ooh! I have a character with an outstretched hand, too!

Nice idea.
When it is about a tournament, then what's the terms and condition and prize?
LOL, if it's just for fun, then. it's great too. feels like an urge for me to make a new cover art... 

This is the cover for the next volume of First Flame called Unbecoming. I normally wouldn't show this under normal circumstances, but I might as well since it will start running soon.

This features an enemy that has so far only been hinted with only a few fights so I'm pretty hyped.

(my editing skills with adding text is non-existent so that's lack-luster but the art was done by my normal art guy)

I've got two covers to share and ready to do battle (however that gets decided lol)

Huh, well I guess if we're entering our own, I throw some of my covers into the ring 

Sounds fun! Imma throw my stuff to the ring too!

A lot of cool covers here! I think my favorite is These Eldritch Stars. I'm not normally a tentacle guy... but here we are lol

I'll share two, one is for a story I hope to post one day (Before the heat death of the universe preferably):



And the second is a story I'm reading:

I'll try with this one. Unlike others which required people with actual skills, this one was created without any artistic talent whatsoever, just the online editor and Artbreeder. 

Nice stuff in this thread.

Old book, recent cover:

Is that image AI generated? It's really good

If you like the cover then you know what that means. Give the book a read lol

Thanks and it is. It still has some small quirks, like the eyes, but I was really surprised myself how well it turned out.

Mine in the sig. 

I think mine's is good. But I'm not 100%. Someone give me some validation lol.

This one is good. But I keep thinking it's a midjourney character. 

The ones for my personal fiction are in my signature. However, there is a cover I made for a fellow Royal Road author that I really love and want to show you. Here it is:
