This is the book that resulted from my fakebandsrealcovers project, where I created album covers for fake bands. I created 300 fake album covers. See them all here: http://fakebandsrealcovers.tumblr.com/ Buy the book here: http://www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/908120
This screenshot demonstrates the variety of color and shape utilized in this project. I tried not to repeat myself.
The following are two commissions that resulted from this project. The client gave me album and track titles and a rough concept, which I executed over of the course of a few drafts.
