Mara Mondays: Fan Art!

Welcome to more Mara Mondays! I hope you've been keeping up with all of the other The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer awesomeness that some of my fellow bloggers are spreading. There's a lot going on today, so if you haven't already, check out the schedule at the bottom of this post! For my post, I did fan art! (What else?) It's extravagantly different from the cover - it's not like I could even do anything close to that cover's brillance, anyway - and it doesn't have the creepy green look about it, but I think it fits in its own way. I really wanted to do something with a swamp/crocodiles, because if you've read the book, you know what particularily disturbingly awesome scene I'm talking about, but I just didn't have the resources or the time. But without further ado ...

Thoughts? Yay/nay, awesomesauce or epic fail? Comment and let me know what you think!

And make sure you check out the rest of the Mara Mondays stops!

  9. I love your art! It throws me off a bit since the regular cover has no faces. You don't realize how that affects your view of it.
    I love it though, it makes me want to watch the non-existent movie :P
