I was approached to do the next cover for North American Furs (more info here). Outside my own personal projects, this is my first cover project so I'm quite proud.
Underlying theme is creativity and inspiration, as represented by the basic-colored butterflies. For the time being, I'll keep the true inspiration of the piece underwraps but I'm sure that the back cover image (which I'll be posting in a moment) will give it away.
I went with designing average characters as opposed to using a collection of my own. This zine is a collection of art from a variety of other artists and I felt it would have been too self-serving to splash all my characters onto the cover. The animals were chosen to represent other artists (or their representative characters) I've met; not necessarily matching gender, just species.
The 'NAF' title for this was created by myself just as a placeholder to play with the glow effect, but was ultimately chosen for the final design.
