The New Scientist - Illustration cover

| | 0 comments
I decided to create a cover for New Scientist rather than The Economist, because after doing some research into previous covers I felt that the New Scientist had a more consistent and well presented aesthetic that I could work with. 

Overall I was not happy whilst working on this brief because I feel that that topic of artificial intelligence that I chose presented too many cliche possibilities for a final outcome. The concept of a person with wires protruding from various body parts, data chips as part of the brain and pixelation all seemed like things that have been done before where artificial intelligence is concerned. 

The idea below is a scanned and edited version of a drawing I did based on my interpretation of artificial intelligence. I felt unsatisfied with this drawing after I was told rather bluntly that it looked as if the woman was pregnant and this spurred me to manipulate it digitally. The increased vibrancy of the colours is much more suited to the magazine, however I want to spend more time editing it so that the detail of the line-work can be appreciated. I also want to add various textures of text and other stories as part of the magazine that would make it look more realistic.
