Alien Art Hive has been hosting a community contest for a few months now where we give a theme and challenge our members to make some art. This round the theme is to create a book cover (either a redesign of a book you love or a cover for a made up book). There is still another week to enter, check out the post details here: Cosmic Creations: Design a book cover
Look at these beauties!
I'm obviously a huge fan of the sci-fi genre and I think the 70s to 80s era of book covers have some of the most incredible art so I'm going to share some of my favorites here if you need some inspiration!
I used to have a massive book collection but sadly each time we moved we gave away quite a lot of our books, also once I got a kindle it seemed silly to keep all these books around. It's the logical and economical solution but I can't say I wasn't sad to part with them.
We kept a small collection of our favorites, mostly kept his Jack Vance books and I mostly kept my Kurt Vonnegut and Margaret Atwood collection.
Some sexy ones 👀
Last one I will share is by Jeff Vandermeer, I haven't read all his books but I would highly recommend his Southern Reach trilogy, it's incredibly strange and addictive though I found the first book of the series to be the best!
I don't have any of the physical copies :/ but I do have this one by him that has a very nice cover which funny enough mentions the trilogy on the cover LOL:
If you're feeling inclined post a book cover you love in the comments!
