Dracula lettered book cover design

A reimagined book cover design for Dracula, inspired by historical scripts. Hand lettered, designed by me as a self directed project. The textures used for the background were made from real world textures, rust, metal, paper, charcoal. They are digitised as vector and available as SVG, PNG, or EPS as a free download here - https://laurenhlettering.com/textures

Finished title

All lettering, composition and design by me.

Initial sketches and Final pencil sketch.

Inspiration for this project was from this painting, Memorial Tablet from 1500 which I saw in Amsterdam last year.

For the Author name I took inspiration from Irish insular script, drawing on his Irish heritage.
