Mucicophilia Dust Jacket

After doing research and drawing up some ideas I decided to sew the brain

I was not happy with the first one so I did it again and got a much better effect of the brain

I then got an old piece of a music sheet from a friend who is musical

                                I then decided to put the brain on top of the music paper

                                                  I placed the brain in to dust jacket

I wanted to use these colours for the fonts  as they are tonal to the bookcover but give a constrast. I got the Musicophillia font from Dafont and it is called Distracted Musician I loved the lines through it keeping the theme of music notes paper. For the other text I used Texton pro as it is has a nice flow and New Times Roman for his name as it has a serious look to it.

Hand written type on bookcovers

I like the way the type is spun around the unravelling of the stiching on a baseball
