Enslaved Cover WIP 01

Here's round one of my WIP of the New Girls of Gaming cover. I'll be doing a podcast this week going step by step on the specifics but basically im doing 3 things here.

1.) Design new Logo - This is the ruff version, I have a finished more refined ready to go now, just not on these pics.

2.) Get layout Approved - That's the Black and White steps, shows my boss where I am going and gets the OK. Takes like 15-30 min. No hurry.

3.) Color Ruff - I design my color schemes at this phase, helps define the goal quicker, lets the licensor (NAMCO) know where I am going, and eliminates headaches after the art is drawn. I used to just go right and draw it, then "figure out" the color, but I found it counter intuitive that way. I'll explain more in the cast.

More updates tomorrow. Now I draw.
