Light novel covers

Light novel covers sometimes get a bad rap. For this article, I will limit myself to English release covers. My favorite light novel artist is Miho Takeoka, but the only series in English that features her illustrations is Book Girl. In Japan the background for all these covers is a blank white—but for the English release Yen Press added a kind of sepia tone library photo background for them, and made the Tohko artworks look like they were drawn on ripped pieces of paper. The end result is… okay. The only cover I think looks good actually is the one for volume 3, where the coloring of the artwork and the background which is actually just a rug in this case seem to mesh together much better than all the others. That bear.

An A5 sheet of paper — this is a size you can get — more or less — by taking a piece of common printer paper and folding it in half. But everywhere else in the world we use a standard that starts at A0, and then A1 which is half the size, A2, half that and so on. A5 is about the size of a small book. Once we make the image, we scale it down a little bit. If keep the sizes linked, and you scale it down to say pixels tall, you get a canvas like this. This image started larger, andwhen I shrunk it down, the imperfections of the wand tool were gone. The borders, the font, the text, were all just made with the basic tools. This is stuff you should always play around with. Now, the first step is doing this kind of thing to make jokes.

I particularly like how the clouds above are colored, light novel covers, and the flock of giant bats circling nearby certainly helps set the mood. I really like the composition of this cover art—it feels very imposing.

If you told me five years ago that we'd have a thriving light novel market in North America, I would have looked at you with skepticism. I'm a long-time manga reader. I've watched publishers release some of the best light novels, and I've watched those same releases go out of print because the audience was not there. But we're in a different place today than we were in the early s. The market can support those light novel releases.
