Type Ideas

Added more creatures to the designs and put type in us well. Defiantly have to make the squiggle lines bolder along with the bands name us well.

Whats with the teen wolf thing ?

I tried something a bit different when designing the cover for Michael Anderson so this time went with just throwing anything and everything I wanted down. Limiting my colour choice was a smart move and it was great to bring some of my creature things into thing piece.

Development of my idea

Try to always draw out my ideas and textures. After I have sketched it out I go into Photoshop clean and re-sketch I'll play with different brushes with these drawing I used a brush that has like a 2hb pencil.


Some colour mock up to. By now I have been look at this drawing to long and all I see is a flat drawing and a hippy shirt. Now its of to look for some reference so that I can give the drawing some more detail cause the hand with the case looks to short and this finger look like someone has cut them off.

This is coming along better has more presence then that last drawing and the extra bits of detail give in more pop.

I'm thinking of the back cover of the cd design needs to link with the front image but be it one idea. Having the cast with in just sitting their will be a good idea.

Micheal Anderson CD

So happy I was able to find a the right gothic type face or I would have had to draw it at plus the one I found was very close to what I had drawn but better. You can find the type face Romance Fatal Goth Font on dafont the author of the font is Juan Casco thier is more type faces at his blog. Now it just a matter of see what the bands thinks of it.

CD Cover Assembly Draft

This is my rought draft of my cd cover design. going to constuct a slip cover to get an idea of how the design will work.

Firstly score all the edges so that they are eaiser to fold then cut out the case making sure to follow printer marks.

Fold the edges of the case.

Glue the outside panels then fold to the back of the design.

Now it all done make sure the cd fit in the slip first time I did the cut out the cd did'nt fit.

Its along are draft so make notes on what is working or what your think needs to be fixed.
