Illustration > Tilda Swinton's portrait for the cover of SINEMA mag (rejected)

I did an illustration portrait of the magnificent Tilda Swinton, for the cover of SINEMA magazine. They loved the illustration and the logo of the magazine, but they didn't like the sci-fi concept in it. That's a bummer, but you can't have it all.

They went with the below approach from a fellow greek illustrator >

Though, as I already said, they loved the logo of the magazine, so we will used it for a future issue of the magazine. You can see the logo in detail, below >

Can't wait to work again for this mag. You can see the project on my official website, here (with some detailed screen-shots)!

Also, here's the first sketch I did on the cover >>>
