This was a college project in Australia: three classic books and their covers. I chose to illustrate Sherlock Holmes, Three Musketeers and Pride and Prejudice.
I created a custom typeface with an antique look which is very suitable for these books. It uses a lot of ornaments and works very well with the themes of these novels.
All of the covers have the same layout. The idea behind it was to make them look like a part of a unique - antique - edition of books.
