World Cup magazine supplement covers

More World Cup hype from from this part of the world and more design and illustrations from me! Here are four magazine covers that came out with my illustrations/designs for English and Arabic publication.

Let me tell you an inside scoop of this whole supplement: everyone in our design team is required to come up with at least three design covers and it's a MUST. Otherwise we will suffer the consequences.  And when our design director Adonis Durado says it, it has to be done. Everyone started coming up with ideas two months before the world cup even begun.

And here are mine so far. Here are the rest of the covers.

The First Kick

This came out on our maiden issue, concept, illustration and design are mine.

The Music of World Cup

This came out two days before the opening of world cup. Concept, illustration and design are mine.

World Cup 2010 Daily Statistics 1

World Cup is almost over and i think i'm gonna miss it. Since Champion's League the paper has been gearing up fot this big event. Al Shabiba, the national paper here in Oman has published a few infographics and posters about the latest news for every matches in world cup. My part is doing most of the illustrations.

The Daily Statistics is one of the graphs we publish, showing the 5 important statics such as the attacks, defend, passes, disciplinary and speed. Stats are always boring specially they all come in numbers! To make sure that this wont look boring especially to the not-so fanatics, we prsented the datas with a lot of illustrations. The center illustration and the one on top were my job.

To add more spice on showing the 5 stats, i illustrated the 5 major stat in a military'r perspective. All five fit just well in its own aspect. this was a fun thing for me to do.

The vector illustrations were done by Winie Ariani. the whole concept was Antonio Farach brainchild. This was a real teamwork.
