[addition: there are another two images below in the thread]

Just finished this for a cover to our demos cd. What do you think?

You can try out the now mixed and culled songs that go with it here (new songs up- a few of my favs):

Thanks to all those guys who gave good advice on mixing and mastering on a previous thread.

I like it.
 
Really I do.

I like what I have heard of the CD as well. Love the Floyd covers.

An owl and a naked angel, it's like a dream come true!

Very nice, and very impressive I must say - you do some good work

The artwork is quite good. Classic prog cover. That's a scary angel!
 
I like your sound the high and low voices together work very well. Nice work.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

Darksideof- wow. Some nice work in your portfolio. Hope you can (are?) making a living out of it.

My cover work is a painting done in photoshop- no filters, just using the brushes and layers.

It's not my type of covers, but still it looks interesting. It has a little bit of Adam & Eve from TFK, not saying you copy it, just the type of cover it is.

Though, I must think it isn't an easy job, so GOOD WORK! Hoping to see more.

Woah - would you design an album cover for either of my "bands"?
 
Good job!
 
Have to get back to you on the tracks when I have time to do them justice...

 Thank again!  the whole thing was done in photoshop? wow!! so it isn't a painting scan in and edit in photoshop? wow how did you do that?
Well, I had done some decent money but not enough to survive, recently i am extremely working hard to make a living out it. i have  severals in life and one of them is to be a fine Artist but I have to be free from pressure and stress of paying rent. here in this country immigrant work to just pay rent, I want that to stop.

Tell you what Certif1ed- you get a recording contract and I would be glad to do something for you without charge (this is just my nacissistic side that would just love to see one of my works actually on a production cd). You could even use this one- I'm only going to use it on a few demo cd's here.

This offer is valid for 14 days- nah just kidding, you go to production and I'd be flattered if you used one of my works.

Here's another one

Not really CD cover style, but nice anyway- gives you a warm cuddly feeling inside.

^ that one is nice (I like the first one too, btw), but I don't like the way that big cat is eyeing the fairyLOL



Posted By: Queen By-Tor
Date Posted: October 24 2008 at 21:59
Poor fairy...

Another very nice one - a lot different in tone

Here's another. This one is oil on canvas.

The angel and the owl are good, though there's something I can't quite pinpoint with the angel's face I dislike. The cats are awesome and would make me buy the album without listening to it (although again, there's something a bit off with their faces).

This one is my favorite. If I saw this on a vinyl/CD, I would buy it, or at least be very interested

I really love the last painting cobb.
 
I've stuck to mostly drawing lately, the only real painting I have done of late is Watercolor with Prismacolor so no pure oil or acrylic painting in months (probably since I don't take painting anymore). Keep them coming your artwork has a great style and is quite lovely in my eyesThumbs Up
