Coloured in cover and a version with the text/logo. Took a while to get this one right, but it feels like one of the biggest hurdles on the road to print is clear.
As anticipated the snake heads didn’t make the cut thanks to the title (that’ll teach me to think out my compositions more carefully!) but perhaps I’ll work them into the back cover somehow.

I think both versions look very good. The snakes definitely look badass but their heads can distract a bit from the main characters.
Thanks DT! Indeed, I tried to make the title work around or over the snakes but it always looked clumsy, so yeah, probably the right call!
