<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Blacksheep UK''' is a SoHo, London, book jacket design imaging and illustration company. They are responsible for creating the [[2006]] - [[2007]] versions of ''Redwall'' covers for [[Publishers|Penguin Random House]] to celebrate the Twentieth Anniversary of ''Redwall'' by [[Brian Jacques]]. The books with these covers were published as paperbacks under the Red Fox imprint of Penguin in the UK; they were never published in the U.S. Blacksheep has also designed covers for ''Redwall'' books published under the Puffin Books imprint.<br />
<br />
In [[2003]], Penguin first worked with Blacksheep for the design of a ''Triss'' paperback cover.<br />
<br />
Some Red Fox covers have the subtext "Over 5 Million Redwall Books Sold." These books also have alternate versions with the subtext "20 Years of Redwall: Over 10 Million Redwall Books Sold." Many of the books were re-issued in [[2014]] and [[2021]]; the subtext became "Over 20 Million Redwall Books Sold."<br />
<br />
''[[The Bellmaker]]'' has a cover image with two different designs; in one, the mouse is hooded. In the second, he is not. The hooded mouse appears to be the final published design.<br />
<br />
In the 2020s, Turkish and Romanian publishers licensed Blacksheep UK's cover designs for their editions of ''Redwall''.<br />
<br />
