COVER EDIT:
WITHOUT TEXT:
COOL MIRROR EDIT BECAUSE I WAS BORED:
Well, this is by far the most fun and kinkiest cover I've done and it's my new favorite for more reasons than one.
A) Again, kinky. B) it's in the theme of my all-time favorite band, In This Moment. I've been listening to them since I was around 10/11/way too young. So they've been with me through a lotta life shit and I'm not the type to call people my idol, but the singer is kinda my fucking idol.
I didn't plan on doing a band theme, especially since I already know nobody will get the references in the title and theme. But I saw the image and couldn't help myself because there's nowhere else I'd ever get the chance to use the image for a cover.
I couldn't figure out what to do for the text so I'm not super confident in it. I notice when I do really scenic covers, it's tricky to design text that won't take too much away from the background, but will also still be decently notable.
But enough of that, and onto this special announcement. if you've read the text on the cover like a normal person would have by now, you've seen that I'm starting a critique shop for covers. I've never seen one before (although I'm sure some exist) so I thought it'd be a neat little idea to have a place for graphic designers to get an opinion on their work.
Because I find that whenever someone asks for feedback on their cover, most people, people who don't even design graphics, simply tell them it's amazing which isn't real feedback.
Obviously, I myself am not an expert and there are definitely flaws in my own covers, but I think I have enough skill to at least help those who are newer to graphic design.
I'll probably get it launched in a few days and the payment for reviews will be very minimal too. Soooooo if you're looking for cover feedback, consider stalking me for when my shop is published.
