Rofl, that's a good suggestion.

Whatever you want. How I create my artwork is that I find a message I want to project, and use colours, pictures, brush strokes that I want to represent it.

Eg. Have a look at my sig. It's go Bush's fugly face on there, with some angel wings, but a skeleton holding a sword. What I want to say here is that Bush is projected as a good man because he wanted to "help" America (the wings) when in real life, he's a corrupt man who's power hungry (the skeleton and sword).

Silvertrain Cover

The better CD I did. Links to the inside/back of the CD is on there too. My favourite is the back. Look through the gallery for other stuff. But I'd probably do it for not much after exams are finished though. Or you could ask Helen, with a record label, she must know some artists.

For some reason I can't quote Droogie. Anyways, the name of the project is "Gorey Gibbler" , my one man Seinfeld Death/Grind project. And the name of the album is "The Grindfeld Chronicles". Thanks for your recommendations everyone.

I preferred the Lauren one, cos it had a picture of her, in a wallet, and the album was called 'life in a wallet' (or something), so, you kinda took the album title, and made the cover based on that

I like what you did there

i know a fair amount of artists but it all depends on what you want from a front cover... do you want an obvious image or an abstract piece of art?

How about copying the DVD covers, change the symbol, write "Purveyors of Sein-Grind" where you can read the seasons and just add lots of blood and guts around the actors in the photo?

Maybe not...
