Contest Brief

Im looking for talented artist to redesign my part 1 book cover to my desires. Im including the original book cover (front and back) design, however I just need the front redesigned.

I would like to expand the original front cover of the book and add few new features. First, I want a wall of bodies (artificial ring made of people, but no faces shown, nor feet) in the background. I need a body of slain (in street fight) person shown on the ground in front on the main character (Tomas) facing him. Hes laying on his side, only a part of his head is shown, should be recognizable damage (blood, messed up hair etc.) to it (I will leave it to the artist). Only a part of the attackers (fighter) legs are shown and his back, facing Tomas again. I need the fighters left hand to be a bloodied fist (blood dripping off it).

Im leaving a sketch of mine to the best of my ability for you to see what do I expect it to look like as a finished book front cover. You will understand why I need an artist. You can see there that part of the original front cover I would like to keep in it. I just want to expand on it. Please remember Im not artist and I have little understanding of a true scale of the objects I want to add into the cover. Im opened to new suggestions or slight adjustments, but try to keep as true as to the original+sketch image.

Also note, that in the sketch I forgot to outline Tomas left hand in orange, just add it where it is expected. Please make it a (clean) fist. Also, he will need pants or a tiny shorts to shown his leg development. Im Ok with each.

P.S.
IMPORTANT!!!: Please understand I want to expand on the original, meaning that it has to contain the original design and just expand on it in a way that it is not recognizable it had been expanded. The artwork has to be exactly the same, or close enough at the very least.

You can change the color, but i will apply the same filter like before to achieve the same effect anyway. Just the artwork needs to be the same. No text needs to be added, ignore the back side that will be the same anyway.
Furthermore, please stick to the description. The cover has to depict what the book contains. Meaning it was illegal street fights, no gloves, no trunks. those are street thugs essentially. Please avoid showing any faces, turn the body away towards Tomas and no cuts on the bodies either, instead add splatters of blood.

Just so that you know, I will need to redesign/design all of my 4-parts book series. This is but the first one of four. If you succeed in this redesign, its likely for me to award you the rest of them as well.

  Love her unique work, however I must say that adaberto P did exactly what I asked for. He kept the original the way it was and expanded on it in a way as I depicted in the sketch, while it is not recognizable that it was expanded on. Its already a though choice.

  I just noticed that you have requested sealed. I'm afraid that will not happen, but I can seal your own work, someone had it done before that nobody else but me can see anyway, if you afraid that someone can copy you later.
