exotica meets ska meets rocknroll - rodolphe guiheux from the French DOGHOUSE & BONE Label gave me this here nice assignment: designing the sleeve for Bruno longo's new band "THE RHUM RUNNERS". initially they just wanted to re-use a vintage Pulp-cover-Illustration, with just the text changed - it took some time to convince rodolphe in designing a complete new sleeve-Illustration. but finally it worked and here we go!!!!
first the rough Color, then the black Background and the Details...
and here it is, the final product - and maaan it is nice to have it in my Hands - go get it fast - at DOGHOUSE & BONE recs. paris, France!
