Magazine Artwork.


Q Magazine: Front cover: Kings Of Leon.

I think the cover for this magazine is too busy, because of the glass, and 3 different kinds of font/color, used to make it stand out. I have to admit it does stand out, but for me not for good reasons, if i was to design a cover for a magazine, i would choose not to put glass in it but just have the band member jump.


Entertainment magazine: Front cover: Alicia Keys.

I like how this magazine is set out because it's simple and not in your face, it's simple. i like how the portrait image is the main back drop of the magazine, and just simple font for around the edges of the magazine, with a simple picture in the left hand corner of Jennifer Aniston.


RollingStones magazine: Front Cover: Kings of Leon.

I like the style of this magazine because its based on a western setting, with a landscape of trees, grass and hills behind the band, and the band in jeans, hats, like cowboys, with a western font at the bottom and on the right hand side, the only thing i don't like about this magazine, is the information on the right hand side of the page, i would of put it along the bottom.
