Wolf People



This is my first stamp design that will go on the cover for the new Wolf People release. Isn't that exciting? They are a great psychedelic garage band based in London and bedfordshire. Its available to buy at the Liverpool based Sea records

I'm quite fond of Jojo. He's the 1920s Russian wolf man circus freak who I based the design on. Thank you Jojo. You look like a wookie, but you're so sweet.

Nice design, i would make it more simplistical like this, so to say 'hey these people are wierd bearded musicians like wolves' not 'hey these people are wolves' if you see what i mean. Then its half wolf half man and your design is saying these pleople are wolfish but however dont be mistaken they are not wearwolfs. But thats just my opinion.

Ah, I see what you mean!
Because an ink stamp is being made from this design (in blue ink), I'm hoping for some nice inky imperfections that will scuff up the logo a tad. Also, because the record sleeve is going to be made of a nice thick cardboard material, there could be some nice natural grainy textures too. When I get a finished sleeve I'll scan it in and show the end results!

Thanks for your comment! :)

oh i see, so it will probly come out looking a bit looser anyway which is really what i meant, this design would work well as a stencil aswell if you enlarged it and used spray paint. I love interfering with other peoples work! sorry
