Poe Covers from Sketch to Mid-completion

The following are the original sketches for the Edgar Allen Poe ebook covers.  The first one is the closest to the concept I end up moving forward with.  The concept being, a look at the area where the story specific partition pushes against the space behind it.

I later decided to add perspective for an extra dramatic flare, and worked with the typography within that perspective, integrating it into the walls and floor.  At the beginning the integration was not as specific to the story as it would later be, but the color red was an intentional move that I felt was appropriate to the murderous theme that the three stories embody.
