The Japanese heavy metal band "LOUDNESS" 40th anniversary album cover art.
Since its debut in 1981, the most famous Japanese heavy metal band "LOUDNESS" has continued to play in the world. They became the first Japanese artist to play on the stage at "Madison Square Garden" and became a rock band representing Japan. They released the 40th anniversary album.
The decoration on the forehead is "Random star": Akira Takasaki's symbol in the shape of a guitar.
The samurai wielding a big sword.
An approaching monster, the sunlight behind.
The castle is attacked by monsters, flames, lightning, and golden swells. In the sea of raging turbulent times, the samurais and warriors confront the monsters. The sunlight shines behind.
At the direct request from Mr. Akira Takasaki himself, this project started and all the contents ( Concept, thumbnail, rough sketch, line drawing, coloring. ) were left in my direction. I showed him after the whole process and... he loved it.
Tool: Photoshop.
