Cyber Ronin - Echoes of the Code

Genre: Sci-Fi/Futuristic

The idea was creating a mix of samurai/ronin elements in a cyberpunk/futuristic science fiction world. The subtitle also indicating a futuristic setting with computers and machinery. Used difference blending mode for all the typography to create that blue contrast to the red base colour. Reference photo is part of a pack commercially licensed from Grafit Studio. That particular photo was well suited for the idea.

A Journey Beyond

Genre: Scifi

Astronaut stranded in a very surreal world. It has a little survival aspect, as he wields a spear and not some kind of futuristic shooting weapon.

Code Breaker - The War against A.I.

Genre: SciFi/Futuristic

A future were A.I. has grown to such a level for humans no longer being in control of it. The cover art shows what could be the glow of a huge eye and a human silhouette against it, creating a stark contrast and point of interest. A huge being we dub as a monster, but humans themselves are to blame, since they created it. Now who is the true monster? Sans serif font is used with wide space between the letters, which is often found in the genre of Scifi.

Mars - Mission to the Red Planet

Genre: Fiction/Space Science

Classic story about humanity landing on the red planet and exploring this alien world.

Bold, big and red font with scifi character, as the landing is still fictional, but might be happening in the future. All the fonts have a texture of the surface of Mars implemented.

Against the bright yellowish background a dark sketched illustration of a small surface base on mars and two astronauts heading out, creating a strong contrast.
