I’m sad to say that I’m going to have to do this cover in black & white in order to not lose money on it. I’m doing a *very* short run, and that makes unit costs really high.

Dabgummit.

Ha! I was just looking at those a couple of days ago, so I suppose it could have been an influence. It really came down to wanting to represent the “bridging the gap between cultures” aspect of the game, though.

The Dreamation Preview will be pretty sparse inside — I don’t have many pages to do what I’m trying to do. The eventual complete game will have lots of illustrations of varying levels of abstraction.

Very nice! Kinda like Justin Van Genderen minimalist Star Wars posters, http://www.flickr.com/photos/justinvg/tags/starwars/ . Will there be more of such goodness inside?
