Description For one of my last illustration class assignments this year we had to create a book cover for one of our favourite books. I chose 'The Passage' from Justin Cronin, since I loved that book! I have more fav books but this was one I read recently, and it is stuck in my head ever since. It was an intense book to read and had a theme I am very interested in, so I decided that had to be the book I wanted to make a cover for C :
This cover doesn't make much sense I guess if you haven't read it yet, but I hope it does trigger a bit and makes you curious. I made this illustration really quick, too because I had like 1 day left for it, haha, but in this case the pressure worked for me. It does not always : ' D

The original cover didn't look like this ofcourse, but I added the backside text on the right side, and the part with the horse and Peter and Amy was the front of the book.

I cannot believe that there isn't more fan art of Justin Cronin novels. The Passage and The Twelve are two of my favorite sci-fi novels. I want to do a Viral contemplating "who am I?."

Fantastic work.

I know right, I am surprised by this too! Maybe now that the new book is out, there will be some more around.
I still need to read it, though! I was so excited that there was going to be another book Hopefully I'll be getting it for my birthday next month, haha.
Also, that sounds like a very cool idea, you should work on that someday : ) And thank you for the compliment, I'm glad you like it!

I know right, that kinda surprised me aswell, because this book has so many memorable scenes and places you could illustrate, even I had a hard time choosing what I would make! But I'll keep my eyes open : D

Shared this on Justin Cronin's Facebook wall (he's a friend of mine). He 'Liked' it.
