No direction actually. They ask for a variant and ask me to cook. Some other companies try to control, but not Vault. So case by case really.
What I'm trying to accomplish is a sense of movement (either in physical movement or eye movement across the page), a bit of story, and something that makes a person go COOL! It' s play off those three themes. Each cover one will hopefully have one of those things as a dominate, and the others will reinforce it. Then Colors must aim towards that dominate decision in service to it. It's also why I color a lot of my work too so I can interpret the meaning myself instead of rely on others.
Really love what you did for the colors on this one!
Hey Brett! How much direction do you get for the covers? What are you trying to accomplish when you start concepting?

Thanks! I always love hearing the behind-the-scenes about a piece.
Oh, yeah, baby!
Love it, bro!
Your colours are awesome! Striking and a tad soft. Killer cover!
