Book Jacket: Legend of the Galactic Heroes (2024) 


A personal project in which I challenged myself to make a book jacket for one of my favorite series of all time, Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Designed in Adobe Illustrator and mocked up in Adobe Photoshop, I wanted to create a sleek design that showed off the rival factions and alluded to the interstellar setting.
