Mars storefront

Here's the new Mars storefront sign, with illustrations cobbled together from assorted pulp sci-fi covers and a Frazetta illustration. Having gotten approval for a basic pencil sketch of this layout, I had little idea of how to go about brushing it in, full size, in timely enough fashion to fit our bid. So, I saddled Josh and Caitlyn with improvising the details of the Martian, his landscape and the warrior babe, while I focussed on the lettering, and spattering stars around in space. I'm thrilled that the whole thing worked out on budget, and that I didn't have to worry about any of the illustration stuff, other than to bark out suggestions from time to time.
