For those who celebrate MAY 4th, here is a peek into my very own Scarif vault, to look at the cover development I worked on for DK and lucasfilm's "Star Wars Dawn of Rebellion: The Visual Guide"
The book covered the fertile period of the saga from the rise of the Empire, through to the events leading up to Rogue One. There was plenty of content from the Obi-Wan Kenobi show, and a little up and coming project called Andor within its pages...
Surfice to say, I had way too much fun channelling a spy novel aesthetic initially, which eventully evolved into the final striking orange published cover!
I have a lot of love for all the Star Wars projects I've been involved with over the years, for lots of different reasons, but this one is probably my favourite of the visual guides I've worked on, in no small part due to the opportunity to really explore some interesting routes for the cover design!
So, here's to the next gen of Star Wars Cover designers, somewhere out there in a galaxy far, far away - and May the 4th be with you!
