Hi there! I am so happy to have found this forum. Years ago, I was on Wattpad on the MMDC and I spent my teenage years making covers for people. I had a blast. I got out of design for awhile and while I’m trying to eventually break into professional freelancing I need a good portfolio first! I do plan to still design for free though for awhile!
anyways enough yapping… here is my portfolio
https://l3rainy.wixsite.com/graphicsbyalex
no pretty html because I can’t remember how to do it.
rules:
-
please give me credit on your story @ l3rainy
-
be comfortable with me putting the design in my portfolio
-

title: Strangers on Spartakiad Street
author name: Maria Killjoy
summary of story: Greta and her dog live in an apartment building from communist times, on Spartakiad Street in Bucharest, Romania. She dreams of buying and restoring the abandoned pre-war house across the road, until a mysterious American moves in, having inherited it from his Romanian grandfather. Problem is, he has no intention to sell. Greta’s happy-go-lucky pupper brings them together through a series of comical situations.
genre: romcom
genre conventions you want to hit: grumpy/sunshine, frenemies-to-lovers
image ideas: https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/b/worn-out-apartment-building-communist-era-against-blue-sky-bucharest-romania-273251013.jpg
Also Bucharest is a city of contrasts, it went from being Little Paris, with graceful French-style and Art Deco architecture, to being bulldozed by the communists and filled up with Soviet brutalist buildings. So maybe something that can display this conteast?
mood: idk, for some reason I imagined this as a cozy winter romcom, but with Eastern Europe aesthetic 
color scheme: up to you
