Oki, my first WIP here, I'm very happy about that :cheers:
Not because the first :)

"Blood Diamond"

The cover almost the entire show, because the only way to truly see the effect of color, but you can change everything, as there are better ideas (probably will), no problem.

Very nice start, a couple of things for me on the front the 2 characters do not have the same lighting quality to them, maybe it's the blending mode you used it looks to me one is clearer than the other, and the sparkling effect on the diamond is a bit too strong, otherwise great job on your cover :thumb:

Thanks Pierre :cheers:
I fixed a light on the front, and flipped Leo, I shrunk the flash of a diamond:D

Yes much better for me, i like the pinkish orange light around his hand and the diamond on the front, one more little thing, on your back, above and below your pic line you have empty lines there and the pics are quite small make the pic line bigger to fill in as much as possible the empty space, and i wont have anything else to say except very nice cover, well done :thumb: :thumb:

Thinking that the red / yellow / orange bokeh lights around the diamond seems too heavy. Perhaps dim them a little?

Also not so keen on the blood drops on the spine TT.

I think there are too many images on the back, or maybe Leo and Djimon might look better if they were reduced in size

Good cover, good advice mate...you're gonna get that blood drip to work on cover soon and if you don't it won't be for lack of trying :)
It's all uphill til you get to the top

It's true your blood drop is a bit much on the spine, i like the diamond there maybe if you place the diamond in a little pool of blood , it's worth a look :D if you want some blood there!!
