Combining historical elements with a dark, cinematic fantasy atmosphere. The composition brings 3 central characters together against an expansive African landscape, with Meroë's pyramids and its city, and distant armies
I uses a warm palette of burnt orange, ochre, deep crimson, and muted gold, contrasted with cooler shadows to create depth and separation between the characters and their surroundings. Each key figure here has distinct clothing, armor, weaponry, and personality to reflect their individual identities.
For the backcover, I use a rugged leather like surface and a geometric pattern inspired by an actual ancient Nubian decorative artifact.")

Gotta say, your boy here is proud of how the art turned out—a lonely, creepy night scene in a small town in the middle of nowhere, with just a hint of riot and terror. We’ve added a lot of Easter eggs in the illustration to give you guys a clue of the book's content. Swipe right to see the full wrap and all the details in the illustration. And check out the last panel to see the thumbnail composition sketch where I brainstormed the final idea.
We’ve got a couple more projects together in the future, so stay tuned, and thank you! 🙌")

Twenty-eight-year-old Muriithi is an African Zebu herdsman. As such, he lives life on a schedule. Water the Zebu, feed the Zebu, protect the Zebu. These are big responsibilities yet simple tasks. He enjoys predictable things he can plan for; the dry season, the wet season, the birthing of calves, among other things.
He detests unpredictable events; leopard attacks, droughts, and disease. Unpredictable events make his job difficult, and anxiety-provoking, and can even threaten the lives of his Zebu.")
