The Banzai Kid

Getting back into design is tough, it is difficult to remember where to start. So it's a good thing that a friend of mine has asked me to design an album cover for him before going back to uni and having a shit fit because I'd forgotten everything.

Anyway he is The Banzai Kid, and I don't know quite what to do yet.

The album isn't about much in particular, Relationships, Alcohol, Death, Corpses and Werewolves.

So I started by looking at 1940s horror movie posters, The Wolfman, The Fury of the Wolfman and the like and because Banzai is Japanese, Godzilla.

So …


The Banzai Kid said it reminded him of 1940s pulp fiction which is not so far from what I was aiming for.

It's a start at least.
