Hey any artist friends in/around San Diego! There’s a first year con happening next month called fandoms unite and they still have some artist alley tables open 💃💃💃
November 27: Corduroy Institute finishes the front cover of Take the Train to Manchester.
After midnight, we decided to have new eyes look at our cover design before returning to work. We debated whether the logo should be added, particularly since the words "Corduroy Institute" were nowhere to be seen on the design. S.A. Morin used his tablet to subtly affix the logo onto the figure on the album cover.
And thus, the cover design was done.
What about the back cover? W. Ruiz browsed through the images from the November 12 photoshoot. It was the first time he had seem them since that day. Now he could see them with a fresh perspective and reconsider them for a new purpose. He found one image which, if cropped and zoomed, offered an image of the subject in a position quite similar to the one in the 1970s image which inspired us back in October.
S.A. Morin liked the image and he tried to add the song titles, but ultimately the color palette of the overall image did not feel right to W. Ruiz. By that point it was almost 5 in the morning, so we decided to leave the back cover for another day.
