Risa Ebata, famed artist known for her work as a character designer on Macross Frontier, has been revealed as the illustrator for the cover art of the first ever SmileR album Melody Line(s), featuring Hatsune Miku.
SmileR is a group that works towards composing, writing, and recording original songs created by using the Hatsune Miku vocal synthesis Vocaloid program. The representatives of SmileR were quoted saying that they "never thought a complete album would be possible" as they really only worked at their job "song by song."
