I've had a chat with Grins1878 and he's asked me if I could post about his need for a cover artist for his self-published book. We've decided there is no better place to find one than right here on Heresy! He'll be the one judging the comp, not I. So post your submission here and get cracking!

'Morning all,
Having seen some superb 40K and Fantasy artwork on these pages I've asked for permission from the proper authorities (cheers gents) to make a bit of a competition for all you folk who're a dab hand with pens, pencils, paints or photoshop (or similar).
You see, I've written, re-written, re-drafted, adjusted and chopped a manuscript to get it to a point where I'm happy, and I'm currently finishing off a final spell check, after which point, I'm self publishing the bugger. And this is where the the competition begins, I need a front and back cover for it, possibly done wrap-around cover style, but it will have a black spine.
The story revolves around a Highwayman, his sidekick, and their slightly tapped friend which you can read three chapters of here:

The idea for the competition is for you all to have a read on the page above, see if you can devise some sort of cover, and at the end of the competition I'll pick one of them, which I'll then use as the cover to it. Your name will be lovingly written on one of the initial pages, along with all the copyright and all the other caper, and a (non-offensive) message of your choice ;-) Sadly there won't be any payment money-wise, but I'll send you a copy of it, and buy you a beer in thanks.
Inquiries about characters and equipment, etc welcome and I'll post any information required on this thread for everyone to read and gain further ideas.
I may also need some black and white pics for inside the book too, so get scrawling!
The end date for submissions will be the final day in September 2010, after which I'll scan through them all with the help of some beautiful assistants, choose the winners and get my scrawlings printed into book form and online for purchase for the world in general.
If you have any queries please don't hesitate to ask,
Love and Hugs,
Grins
