Need to make type for "On the Road" clearer, and should have hand drawn road dashes... but apart from that I'm pretty happy with the result of my Jack Kerouac book cover. I did the thing where you've been looking at something for far too long so you can't even see the flaws in it, which become oh so obvious during the crit! I printed it out on water colour paper which looked pretty nice. I was going for a screen printed sort of look, with the offset colour layers. Wish I could have actually screen printed it, but this has turned out to be a really good way of planning an image using layers, which could definitely be useful for future print making :)

Book Covers! Work in progress..
Covers for 'On The Road' by Jack Kerouac, for my main illustration class. What do you think?
I'm going to print it on some thick water colour paper so it looks like it's been screen printed! Obviously it'd be more ideal to actually screen print it but this is the next best thing! I've been looking at them for too long so no idea if they actually look nice or not.
Give em a click to get a better look!
