so, i've taken on creating the cd case artwork myself, and it's become a rather extended but exhilarating labour of love.
<-here's a pic of the recycled paperboard cases after the first print of white ink.
and here's the plate that it was printed from ->
<-and here's the press machine. the white things are the ink rollers, and each case is hand-cranked through. the printing actually goes pretty quickly once you get the ink and plate set-up. thanks to dan at the arm letterpress studio for teaching me how to make my design come to life!
i'll be finishing up the other colors over the next week or so - order a cd now, and you'll get it as soon as it's dry off the presses!
