Book Cover Design Brief

I require a full book cover for my upcoming publication. The spine will be simply the title (Outbreak) upon a background extending from the front. The front portrayal will be two crossed scimitars resting upon folded chainmail and a torn scarlet surcoat. Against the hilts of the swords will be a small crystal bottle containing a thick, dark liquid, and the blades can have small blue flames dancing across the steel. The back cover will depict a night fight between a monstrous panther and a human male warrior armed with a morningstar and a small round shield. The warrior is blond with a light blue tunic over his armour. If possible I would like small fires burning in the long grass, especially at the edges of the design allowing the features of the combatants to be highlighted. While i do not​ yet have the dimensions of the finished project, i am prepared to add a small concession for resizing from the standard size of a fantasy book.

Requirements

Must have

• The core description contains my ideal scenes. The back must have enough shadow to allow the blurb to stay visible without clashing with any of the colours. I would like to contact the successful designer with the written aspects of the project upon selection.

Nice to have

• The blue flames upon the scimitars is optional. I'd also appreciate if the front cover design could hold some hint of light from a fireplace that is out of sight, but this is purely an extra consideration. Similarly, if the chainmail and the torn edges of the surcoat could have hints of blood.
