Hey Damned, do I speak to you specifically about the album cover or is it a group input thing? I don't want to flood the thread with WIP's if it's unnecessary. Unless the community doesn't mind that kind of thing.
 
EDIT: Ps I did a quick doodle/sketch of the updated concept. see what you think. I'm hoping that Dragon Warrior and Open Championship golf will get claimed because otherwise that side of Iwata will be rather empty...

OK, so the most notable quote (for me) from Mr. Iwata was: 
 "On my business card, I am a corporate president. In my mind, I am a game developer. But in my heart, I am a gamer."
And this album is to be a celebration of the man. Therefore there was only one way I could envisage the album cover:
 

Please bear in mind this is only an incredibly rough sketch, and a far shout from the finished product (refer to the artwork in my website). I think it really encapsulate how I imagine the man to be when not in his suit and what he meant to so many of us. Please also note:
The Kirby T-shirt
SNES controller
Nintendo mug
Triforce tattoo
Pet Pikachu
Framed Ness
Smash Bros. Wall clock
Balloon Fight balloons.

What do you think of this very rough concept?

Cheers Timaeus, I'm working on it

In Memory of Iwata: A Direct Tribute
i'd go with something like that i dunno

Hey hey, I don't want anybody to argue over the artists' gig. If somebody else already had their feet under the table, I'm second in line and I get that. But saying that, I'm totally eager for this job.
