My artist finally finished the cover of my novella The Art Murderers! I'm really excited. I think she did a wonderful job. What do you guys think? ^-^

Great cover! I like the font style mostly. Also the knife and the diamond (not sure if it is a diamond or not) are very well drawn. I suggest adding more colors to the background to make it a more attractive cover.

The cover looks great! The colours are really effective and make the knife and diamond stand out. The plain white font is very simple yet very much effective! It is something different which makes it nice and unique to look at. It looks great the way it is but it wouldnt hurt to add some more color somewhere if you wanted to.
It is really well done!

Nice blood! Unfortunately, the font is too redundant. Three R's are in there, and each one looks exactly alike. in fact, if you closely enough, you can see how they triangulate. Ask your artist to smudge or streak or mess up the font a little bit, just to give each letter a sense of individuality.

I like the theme you placed into this cover. The font that you're using greatly appeals to that of the painting below the title. The bloodied knife and the diamond fits the cover perfectly, don't change a detail about it.

I can suggest one thing, the font of the white title makes it good for placing bright red blood inside the white text, it would fit with the theme. The only problem that I have with this is that the way you placed the name of the author seems to be very distracting, you should let the text be smaller in order to give the viewer more attention to the title.

Nice work! I hope your novel will be good. :)
