Published On By
Arthurian Legends are coming true in modern day Chicago. Merlin is a 16-year-old orphan who is receiving intense training in her use of magic... so intense that it is beginning to chip away at her sanity. Her tutor is a prejudiced fairy who is training her to become a weapon against the daemons that have threatened to invade the Fairy Kingdom. She has formed a romantic attachment to the Uther character, High Lord over the daemons, and she is caught between worlds, between friends, and she has little or no control over her magical abilities so that she is continually hurting those she loves as she struggles to find her place.

I had a lot of trouble with this, but it was fun :) First I did a cutout of the girl photo (which is really lovely, BTW) on Pixlr Editor. I couldn't cut out a few of those black grains, so I left them and decided they would look like "magic". The overall effect of that turned out nice. Then I had to deal with the city photo - this went from Pixlr Express to PicMonkey, where I added the banner. The text I did in Google Creative Kit. I hope this works okay!
