Description Hey look a new cover! Now with 90% more symbolism. :'D

Beginning: fav.me/d52sm43 (I swear the art gets better and a plot shows up later)

Since I announced there wouldn't be an update this week I at least wanted to post something. That and I was sick of looking at the old cover. Similar composition and everything, but I think the updated art looks nice. I also tried a new shading style which doesn't look incredibly different, but I like it better.
The little tittles next to the characters aren't half as dark or dramatic as they sound to be honest (except maybe the fellow in the back), but oh well. I'm trying to be poetic or something.
I'll just pretend not to notice any flaws here.

Thank you ~Dragnia for helping me figure out the typography. I was really stuck on how to place the title. I was insistent on having Zephyr literally breaking the word "Threshold", but it was hard to figure out a pretty and still balanced way of placing "Breaking" and "the".

The composition is very well-balanced and nice glow effect.


*wonders about the puppets*

It was a bit tricky to make everythin balanced, but 'm rather happy that it worked out. Turns out glow effects are easy and fun to do.


Symbolism~

Ohh the symbolism I suck at symbolism.. Makes me love it that much more

I really do prefer Nuzlocke covers without any Pokemon from the main team or anything like that~ It feels so .. spoily?
Lugia looks awesome though~<3 .. tho.. that's Lugia, right~?

I usually cannot come up with symbolism at all. This was one of those struck by inspiration in the shower moments. XD


I thought about including Nine, but it would have made things really unbalanced, so I left him out. I get what you mean though.


Yup it's Lugia. Just the eyes really though. Glow effects are fun~
