Résumé du concours

I require an eBook cover to be designed which will be used for the sale of a Kindle eBook on Amazon. Please note that this needs to be an original illustration rather than something designed using clipart or similar images.

The subject matter of the eBook is based around the Tour de France. The illustration I have in mind is as follows:

Mountains in the background with a road leading from the foreground to the summit. A group of four male cyclists to be riding together up the mountain road and some distance behind on the same road, a motorhome with a man driving and a woman in the passenger seat. Along the route of the road there can be the odd motorhome or car parked up and/or spectators waiting for the Tour de France riders (I will leave this to you depending on whether you think it works in the overall design).

The title of the book and strap line should be across the top of the cover and author's name along the bottom, as below:

Title: One Day Ahead
Strap line: A Tour de France Misadventure
Author: Richard Grady

I am looking for a humorous/cartoon style image and I would like a design which is eye-catching in both full size and thumbnail format.

I am happy for initial entries for this contest to be in sketch format and whilst full colour will be required for the final design, your initial entry can be in black and white and we can work from there. If you can show me similar work you have done, please do.

The illustration will have to comply with Amazon requirements detailed here: https://kdp.amazon.com/help?topicId=A2J0TRG6OPX0VM and will ideally be supplied at or near to the largest size quoted on the Amazon site. Image to be delivered in .jpb and .tiff formats.

I have additional illustration work for both this eBook and other eBooks in the future and this will be available to the winning entrant.

Copyright of the image to be transferred to me once payment has been made.

I have linked to some other books on Amazon below to give you an idea of the kind of design I am interested in. I am not looking for a copy of any of these covers, these are just to give you an idea of style:

Congrats winner !!! I wonder how the winning entry is a result of this brief ---> "Mountains in the background with a road leading from the foreground to the summit. A group of four male cyclists to be riding together up the mountain road and some distance behind on the same road, a motorhome with a man driving and a woman in the passenger seat. Along the route of the road there can be the odd motorhome or car parked up and/or spectators waiting for the Tour de France riders " OMG, deviation !

  That is great and it is up to you to choose any design. The work is great except that it is not following the brief exactly. All the best.

  I must say that MdShafiPulikkal is right. To think I almost joined this contest myself. But then again, I guess it's all about the taste of the contest holder. Well, best of luck on your book.
