I'm doing some experimenting with simple techniques, trying to improve my photoshop skills.
First, the front cover of "Planetes - volume 01" was desaturated and its level information - shadows, midtones and highlights - was transferred to a binary text.
Then a flare of blue light, slightly distorted, was added to the background.
I was rather pleased with the final outcome, simple as it is. I hope it meets AP standards.
I'm planning on doing the other three volume covers in a similar way, with other background options.
