Joshua Allen has done a very sharp mockup of a concept for "The Nightlife: Las Vegas" cover--the second in the Nightlife series. Its a work in progress, but you can see it coming along nicely. I'll continue to post each subsequent version until we get to the finished product.

I'm liking it. Not as "bright lights, big city" as I'd expect from a Vegas-based tale, but it's got a dirty, grimy, gritty feel to it.
ReplyDeleteI like that feel. It's honest.
Vegas is dirty, grimy, and gritty behind the bright lights, so it works.

Cheap plug... Gotta boost that Alexa Ranking. :-)
You said it, a little bit grim, gritty. The concept is being refined still, but this is a good start. I'll post more versions as they come available.
