really bad cover

 

[CrisGalaxy]

Not everyone is perfect.
We need a break every once in a while with people who are not 10ft tall or have a razor sharp jaw and are flat chested.

looks so dated

That's Koto.. he doesn't do now or trendy, his aesthetic is consistently 30s/40s, when you hire him, you know what you're getting. I wish VR would go back to more conceptual photographers like him.. not complaining with their current choices but I miss the times when more independent, free-thinking photographers were given the opportunity to shoot covers, now it's Terry, Steven something, Terry, hot new thing, Terry. Very uninspiring and forgettable.

I actually like the cover. It looks like it's from another era.

I love the editorial Bolofo shot for this issue

That's Koto.. he doesn't do now or trendy, his aesthetic is consistently 30s/40s, when you hire him, you know what you're getting.

Which is exactly why I enjoy his work. He is dreamy & fearless. Looking at his images always makes me happy.
