First off, I'm back writing again.
The story line is The main character from Bearkiller, HALO, and Tarnished Halo is coming out of retirement to help his friend rescue his daughter from a Mexican Drug Cartel.

These are three covers I've been working on.
I would appreciate any input.

I'VE REDONE WITH NEW TITLE ABOUT SIX POSTS DOWN

I don't like piss in the title - I prefer the middle one - bright and artistic and mystical looking.

Thanks DK, I've been wrestling with the title myself.

I prefer the middle one. As for the title: "You play with fire, you get burned."

Okay let's start over.

I like the second one best. Also, the other books with the same main character have titles with all caps. Maybe this title should be the same? Oh, and how about Bedeviled Halo or Demonized Halo?

How about, " Never, Ever Mess With the Devil!"

I like the skulls one myself.

Perfect!

Subject: Re: Cover Help Tue May 14, 2013 5:39 pm

Okay, I'll give in to the design, but I sure need some of that red in there...all else is well.

Subject: Re: Cover Help Tue May 14, 2013 5:40 pm

I still like the artsy one but the title is better with the skulls.

Subject: Re: Cover Help Tue May 14, 2013 8:54 pm

DK,

Just for you...

I found the same one with red flames at the bottom

What are the numbers in the background?

Subject: Re: Cover Help Wed May 15, 2013 6:52 am

Since I don't know the book content I can only go with reaction to the cover - I like it when you use flame colors.

I like the first of the second series (of five) covers best, though they are all terrific.

If "piss off" is too harsh or inappropriate (I don't agree with that, by the way), "mess" is too soft for me. That's my two cents.
