Dealing with cover layout design using InDesign for a fantasy book series...

For the past months, it was a slow and smooth work flow for a project about a book series. The illustration was made and the cover layout was next and learning things about InDesign should be done since it is the thing that should be used for the layout. With video tutorials on youtube, basic application about InDesign was learned and the cover layout was completed but several revisions are needed regarding with spacing, margins, alignment and etc.

Here's a slice image of the illustrations done. Maybe the series is up to seven but is not sure and three of it is near completion.
