Hello there,
I am really interested in your project. I want to work with you and make an illustration for your project similar to the images you attached.
You found these images on internet. You like the background of these but you would require the male figure to change. You want the man to be more mature, like age of late 50's. The dress will be more adult attire. And you want the lantern to be more Victorian style.
So, if the illustration is manually drawn, I will start it from scratch. I will keep the background sky same like it is in the pictures with dark blue sky and a lot of stars. But the man will be completely different. Right? I believe I understand your concept clearly and will be able to provide you the perfect service required.
I have worked on many other Book covers previously. I would like to show them to you if you kindly contact me. There are many illustration style, art style that I would like to show you too. Please check my portfolio to see my working skills.

I will make the illustration from scratch and you will get work in progress previews in every step so that you can see how the work is going on. You will be able to make changes, give instructions, and add or remove something during the order. That's how the final result is something you are completely satisfied with.
I would like to talk in detail and would really appreciate a valuable reply from you.
Thank you,
Fojle Rabbi
