Cover Art

Post by Ogg »

The thing with vacation time is that one can afford to waste it on selfish projects. Continuing with all things 'band' related. I've been creating potential ep covers with Nero (whilst listening to Rush). Again I would value your opinion.

Pretty good both of them. I think I prefer the eclipse one.

This is the one I'll be using when I get my project finished.

Slaine, use http://www.imageshack.us/ to host your cool cover pic. Paste the lowest link once pic is hosted then we can click on a thumbnail to see it in all it's glory. Looks good to me.

try right clicking on the pictures, select properties and copy and paste the address onto the address bar of your browser screen before clicking go. That shuld allow you to see them.

Wow! All these are really good! Boy have we got some talent here on By-tor!

Slaine, yours reminds me of some of Fairfield Porter's work. But mostly he did seascapes in Maine but the style is similiar.

i can't think of where the heck that may've come from, but the initial thing for me was that it reminded me of a scene in the 2nd Terminator movie, only with clouds and words on it! i love that artwork though!

Close. Its actually the final shot from the first Terminator where Sarah Connor is driving her jeep away from the petrol station.
