Thoughts on $5 Covers?

[MontyApollo]

Any thoughts on these covers? Do either of them work? Does one work better than the other?

I commissioned these off Fiverr for $5 each. I just described the story generally and listed some of the elements present in the story (e.g. a starship, nuclear explosions, etc...), but I told the artist I didn't have anything specific in mind and to just to see what they could come up with.

Since $5 was pretty cheap, I ordered 2 covers just to have options.

They both look really good (especially for 5 bucks!) but I prefer the second one. It's crisper to me and more appealing in small size/less busy.

I like the left one. I like the dark color the bright orange and in the cloud on the right I see a laughing clown face...

What bobsandiego spake. Luv the one on the left. And ... $5 ?! I gotta investigate that service, two cool covers.

Now I can't unsee the clown face. Great.

Yep, me too.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. I asked for a revision, and this is what I got:

That's better :) No more clown face. Whew.

Can't sleep the clown will eat me....
