Too often when you do the cover design that comprises of a remote team, zero Zoom meetings, and a PM directing traffic wires get crossed. But, this is the modern world and these are the issues you have to deal with as a professional. You lose time trying to do anything but the contrary and for this one. When Mark Poulton sent me the order and the list of items to add I knew I had a problem. So I solved it and made the best decision as to what fits and what was balanced. Anything other than me jumping on the work and putting in the time to figure it all out would have wasted our resources.

You cannot control the entire pipeline so don’t try to. What you do have control over is the work you produce. I’m proud of this design because realistically it should have never worked.

But it does.
