This is the cover art that I made for the book named "Dragon" by Steven Brust (Vlad Taltos Series).
This cover was made for the Turkish Edition of the book. They wanted me to draw only the dragon but
I couldn't resist making a powerful background. They like the finished work but they had to
go with the black background so actual book cover has no moonlight and forest:( But I wanted
you to see this version instead of the black bg version. Making Cover art has some
disadvantages (Size, Big empty space for the titles...) but I did my best.

Oh, and this is not a dragon actually, this is supposed to be a little jhereg, they're different from dragons,
I wanted to draw it as in the writer's description, but editor wanted me to draw a dragon because there
were dragon illustrations on the previous covers, so I came up with this, a small dragon...

I also have made another cover for the Issola (9th book of the series) book and I'll submit it soon.

Enjoy:)

Great work. Wouldn't they lack imagination so much, the editors would know that a strong backround on a book cover is attractive to readers, as it let them enter the book's universe a bit more...
