Danny Friedman & the Beastman Band CD, 2010

It was great fun to help bring this band's conceptual vision to life.
Man, I would love to see this design on gatefold vinyl...

Beastman Band CD cover illustration, open view without spine text.
The men pictured are the band members. I drew their faces from photos, and invented their bodies.

Beastman Band CD Front Cover
My main inspiration was the cover of Black Sabbath's Paranoid, with the neon "War Pig" jumping out from behind a tree in the darkness. This sasquatch's jovial showmanship reflects the theatrical nature of the Beastman Band.
This design is also featured on the Beastman Band T-shirt.
