Design Concept
The kneeling figure of a 5’11” man is placed on the middle right of the cover. The wings – dramatically spread and blood-red in color – dominate the left side of the composition. Backlit by a dimly glowing, dark crimson moon, the setting is an eerie, semi-ruined battlefield shrouded in mist. The man is depicted in a state of anguish, head slightly bowed, with blood spilling from the tips of his wings and streaking through his vibrant, long, blood-red hair. His black leather jacket glistens with dew or faint blood markings under the moonlight.
A custom serif typeface is used for the title, “DEMON SIGNS,” with jagged tips and distressed edges to convey pain and sorrow. The text is blood-red with faint glowing embers around it. The author’s name, “ZAYEN,” is written in a subtle yet commanding sans-serif font in muted white, positioned at the bottom right corner for balance.
The main title is positioned in the upper left, large and bold, slightly overlapping the faint mist to emphasize its significance. The figure dominates the lower central-right layout, dynamically spilling into the foreground. The crimson moon creates an atmospheric background that frames the kneeling man’s form, with subtle, clear spacing around the title and author’s name for maximum legibility.
Visual composition captures the essence of the genre with dramatic attention to sorrow and pain through the kneeling pose, spilling blood, and scattered battlefield ruins. The interplay of dark tones and the blood-red highlights evoke fantasy and torment. Typography reinforces the mood with sharp, jagged edges on the title font and a muted contrast in the author's name for balance. The layout provides a cinematic feel with key elements like the moon and figure creating focus and depth. Materials like soft-touch matte paper create a tactile experience, while spot UV gloss adds texture and dimension to key visual components, making the cover both visually and physically compelling.
