Re-thinking Electric Sheep

I'm re-thinking what I'm going to produce for this brief - I'm making the same mistake I did at the beginning of my 505 project last year by making full colour illustrations for what seems to be a paperback - This doesn't really tend to happen in real life. It also ends up making the brief pretty much exactly the same as the War Horse brief - SB4. It seems like I'll just be repeating myself.

I like the idea of making a hardback special edition, similar to what I did with the Orion Creative Competition. The idea is very similar to have an interactive edition with a dust jacket, except this one wouldn't come with multiple jackets, just one:
The dust jacket has the muscular structure of a human on it on a transparency, but when you remove it you have the blue prints to an android. This means I'm scrapping the book cover I previously made for the book.
If I have time I will do at least one inner illustration, but I want to work on making this cover really really nice first. I'm scrapping the previous inner illustration with the empathy box in the last post.
