I didn't take into consideration that this was also a variant cover and as you said, the rules are a little more lax. <br /><br />Thanks PaoloJasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394828033686426019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-74088953969431106612014-06-11T19:52:02.866-07:002014-06-11T19:52:02.866-07:00Please see my reply to the other comment above. As...Please see my reply to the other comment above. As for keeping things organized, I tend to keep files from one project together, nested in folders organized by publisher. I also have a file 3-letter naming convention that can act as a tag while searching: col, ink, pcl, lyt... etc.Paolo Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088106827920011644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-87544930076089666842014-06-11T19:49:27.183-07:002014-06-11T19:49:27.183-07:00My pleasure, Jason!

That's why you have to be sure that you're happy with everything that you submit — artists are constantly relate stories of editors picking their least favorite. If I have a particularly strong concept, I'll just send one, but you have to have a good relationship with the editor in order to do that.<br /><br />With regard to this one in particular, the other give a better sense of the situation, but the final will do just fine on the shelf. Also, this was a variant, a category of cover that can live by different rules.Paolo Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088106827920011644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-31542085551803909012014-06-11T15:02:06.003-07:002014-06-11T15:02:06.003-07:00I´d love to know what are your decisions for selec...I´d love to know what are your decisions for selecting the thumbnails :) Some look like odd choices for me bc some look even cooler. Oh oh! And also if possible, how to you handle all the files once you have finished a project.

The next time you're at a con near me, I'm going to walk up and throw money and praise at you or something. :)<br /><br />Speaking of thumbnails, I actually like the second one the best and was wondering why you didn't go with that one? I ask so I'll better understand what I should be drawing as opposed to what I may think looks the best. Granted it's ultimately up the editor, but I was just curious as to why this was the one selected. <br /><br />Thanks again.
