Coyote Ragtime Show Vol.1 Manga Cover - This cover was really fun to work with since it used a lot of bold colors and I could mishmash different pieces together. The original piece was done for a spread, but I separated it into the front and back sections. copyright ufotable

Galaxy Angel II Vol.1 Manga - Since the long-running manga series takes place in space (there's 5 volumes of the original series, 3 volumes of the "1.5" Beta series, and currently 4 volumes released for GAII), all of the covers feature the same space motif, with subtle variations. copyright 2006 BROCCOLI illustrated by Kanan

KAMUI Vol.1 Manga Cover - This cover features a spot UV coating against a matte finish. I always liked doing this to covers, especially on the darker ones as it really makes things pop. copyright 2005 Shingo Nanami / SQUARE ENIX

Kon Kon Kokon Vol.1 Manga Cover - Thought simple, the main focus is meant to be Koge-Donbo's cute artwork. This was printed on a thick, textured matte finish that came out nicely.

Murder Princess Vol.1 Manga Cover - Features a spot UV on the characters, branding stripe, and blood splotches against a matte finish that really makes things pop. copyright Sekihiko Inui / MEDIAWORKS

My Dearest Devil Princes Vol.1 Manga Cover - What my boss wanted to emphasize was "cute, yet seductive." copyright Makoto Matsumoto / Maika Netsu

Disgaea Manga Cover - We decided to use the artwork of Takehito Harada, the game character designer, instead of the original Japanese cover art since it's more appealing to fans. You can see Arashi Shindo's art on the back. copyright NIPPONICHI SOFTWARE CO. LTD illustrated by Takehiko Harada and Arashi Shindo

Disgaea 2 Vol.1 Manga Cover - This is for the manga (comic) based on the game, which has an anime style to it. Confusing, eh? Though the author of the manga drew an original cover for the Japanese edition, it was a business decision using the game artwork by the original illustrator, Takehito Harada, for the front. copyright NIPPONICHI SOFTWARE CO. LTD illustrated by Takehiko Harada

World of Disgaea Art Book Cover - An art book covering information and artwork from the first Disgaea video game. The cover art is by Takehito Harada, the character designer. copyright NIPPONICHI SOFTWARE CO. LTD illustrated by Takehiko Harada

World of Disgaea 2 Artbook Cover - This is the art book for the second Disgaea game. The cover art is by Takehito Harada, the character designer. copyright NIPPONICHI SOFTWARE CO. LTD illustrated by Takehiko Harada

Yoki Koto Kiku Manga Cover - This cover was printed on a near matte finish (probably an eggshell gloss), which helps emphasize the antique look to the artwork since it's supposed to take place in 1920s Japan. copyright Koge-Donbo / BROCCOLI 2006. Illust. by Koge-Donbo.
