initial drawings

Bellow is a try out for the book cover. It is a very very small tryout comparing to what the size it would be for the actual bookcover. I managed allright. :)
This took me 25/30 minutes.. :/ and I still have to decide on a final colour.
The font is Ventura, by Dino dos Santos, and its a revived type from 1820, originaly drawn by Joaquim José Ventura, as a gift to the Prince of Beija at the time.. how nice...
