Discarded idea for the Vintage Directory

 
This visual is a very rough idea of how I initally wanted the front cover design for the Vintage Directory to look. I decided on rendering portraits of vintage icons and chose Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Twiggy and Madonna as my portrait subjects.
These are the photographic references I decided to use. I wanted unconventional poses/shots of each person just to jazz things up! Basic smiley shots are too boring.
After I'd have drawn all four portraits, I would have added a few vintage graphic devices such as coffee-stains, negative strips, film reel tape...etc. dotted around the page to retain a retro feel.

Outcomes:
Audrey Hepburn portrait by myself.
