Hi, Since the virus I have more free time and I began to create my own CD and DVD covers for shows that don't have or I didn't find any. Since it's christmas, I wanted to start with the 77-12-22 show. i only made front covers because I don't think anyone will print these out, It's just nice to have a front cover for the audio files on the computer, phone, etc. I will make more, but maybe in a week, a month, or a year, so I'm not guaranteeing anything.  I'm a complete beginner photoshopper, so It's not very complicated.  Any suggestions for shows I should make a cover for is appreciated, and even If I should continue making these. Happy Holidays everyone! So here's my first work:  download (version 1): link
download (ver. 2): link |

nice work.
some things i would change:
♦ use of Blend > Stroke option to create an outline around Freddie, change colour from black to red - black make him look like his hair is a huge perm.
♦ use of box for "Queen" - i'd remove the box and use the same Blend > Stroke red outline as above - with lettering in silver or white.
♦ date should be smaller than gig title (maybe 2/3 1/2 size)
♦ there's some weird fills gone on between Freddie's chest and his mic pole and between the minder's arm and Freddie's leg.
and yes, definitely continue. p/shop is a steep learning curve, but rewarding when something clicks.

Thanks for your response. I did a bit of work on it, because I wasn't really happy with it and you gave me good tips, and maybe it's a bit better now. I uploaded it to the first post |
