Seven Gardens not Seven Seas

When you think about pirates, you might think about the Seven Seas. This cover plays on that idea of the Seven Seas but this one is the Seven Gardens. The background is a mash up of four different parts. Can you tell? They are...

Covers I have made in MCS: Enjoy! :D






2016 COPYRIGHTED N.J. FOLETTIA @ Magic Cover Shop: Figment.

(the edited pics, the collage is copyrighted by me but the pics are either from random Google Image searches or from Pixabay. I have made sure that these covers will not be used commercially and be confined to Figment use only.)

Okay, these are all the covers I have made for people on Figment. Some are legal, some are not, well, that's kinda how it goes in Figment's Cover Studio. This isn't all of them, actually. Before I had MCS, I was already making covers for people for free. But...they weren't very good and a lot of them were just words on top of pictures.

Some of these might fool you cuz they do look like I just put fancy words on top of pictures but only about 7 of them are like that and out of those 7, about four or five of them had a bit of color editing done to the picture. Sometimes a cover can take ten-fifteen minutes to make. But most often they take from one to two hours.

For one cover? Yes, for one cover.

It's long, but I do enjoy it. I'll probably be doing this for a long, long time :)

Maybe, maybe someday when I have money and time, I will learn how to use Photoshop and make covermaking my side-job or something like that :P

See ya later, alligators! :D

Magic Cover Shop Under Construction: Day 2

Check it out and scroll down.

You will see this crazy collage of a bunch of covers I made for people in the shop. I counted them. I have made 125 different covers for people, some of them recurring customers.

But 125! Accomplishment! :D

Just needed to say it :) I've come such a long way.

See ya later, alligators! :D

Magic Cover Shop Under Construction: Day 1

I think I can brag about this. Some of you might not have known my cover shop on Figment before, but let me just say it was a complete mess with a banner I made from wallpapers, sample covers were all different sizes, there were just waaayyy too many words, and nothing was neat.

If I went to my shop, I would get tired of reading all those words, geesh! :/

BUT I worked TWO and a HALF HOURS to get it all cleaned up. I had meant to do this for a long time and FINALLY I have done it! :D

I gave it a new LEGAL banner I made myself, a face for my shop (a Magic Fox!), and even though the Cover Example section is under construction, I have a cool logo for it.

Please, check out this hard work :)

And may the foxes be with you! (Star Wars reference).
