I'm down to the final two book covers for Soldier of Finance.   Love to hear your thoughts on which one you prefer. 

 

Check them here

 

Thanks for all your support!

Well, if you ever decide to sell it on Amazon (shameless plug: I can help with that), you should be aware that they scale the cover image down to 150 pixels high for previews. I took the liberty of downloading the two images and resizing them. The subtitle isn't readable in either one. While I like the camo piggy-bank better conceptually, at 150px the dog tags are a clearer image.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon

I like the camo pig and voted.  Just seems a little more original to me.

I voted for the pig. I like them both actually…maybe you can have the pig wearing the dog tags around its neck. Wink

Sorry, no pig – pig is boring, expected and doesn't hold the promise of novelty and excitement inside the book. I voted for the dog tag – this is something els.

I agree that the piggy bank is a bit overdone in the PF world.  Plus the dog tags really connect with the "soldier" – the personal side of the soldier.  So I voted for that and included a similar comment.  That the dog tags also appear clearer on Amazon would be a pretty good bonus IMO, as well.  

 

That being said, I really did like them both.  I just think the piggy bank is a bit too expected.

I'm also going to go with the camo piggy – although I like them both.

I voted for the pig in camouflage. The reason why is that it is unique and drew my attention instantly.

I voted for the camo pig, but after reading some comments, I would probably change my vote to the dog tags. They are more unique. Both are great though.

The publisher was pushing hard for the Dog Tags which were growing on me.  I honestly like both. 

 

They met with their rep from Barnes and Noble, and they selected the Piggy Bank.   

 

Camouflaged piggy it is.  :)

Piggy, but it is overused.  I liked the font better.
