The third in a trilogy under the Astronomy banner, and a triumph for a very successful team combining myself and a skilled and knowledgeable editor, with the undoubted flamboyance of the high-profile "Hencoup" team.

An extremely interesting project for me, visualising these pictorial spreads, often utilising reversed out printing onto black - a technique entirely pioneered by myself in this series for DK.
