Album Cover Series

Description

I've never really tried to make any album covers before so I wanted to give it a shot. I chose three of the creepiest albums I know and love.

1. AFI - Shut Your Mouth And Open Your Eyes
I wanted this to be mainly warm colors. The original has a boy staring a levitating body in a weird room. The perspective is really off on that cover and I tried to do the same thing here. I wanted to capture the same weirdness to make a person ask 'what the hell is going on in this cover?' AFI has some strange album covers but SYMAOYI is definitely the weirdest.

2. The Number Twelve Looks Like You - Mongrel
This one is all cool colors. The original cover has some bizarre fur textures mixing with machinery so I went in that same direction with a robotic panther thing. I didn't think too much about how I was drawing this one, Number 12's music is so nonsensical and crazy so I tried to do the same thing. This one was an experiment in color above anything else.

3. Fear Before The March of Flames - Odd How People Shake
This band's first album is so violent, angry and overwhelming. To be honest, this band just scared me when I first heard them years ago. It took me a long time to appreciate their sound and they've become one of my favorites. I wanted this to be chaotic and frightening, spent a lot of time just googling pictures of animals roaring and so on.

If you havn't heard any of these albums, I highly suggest it! Be warned though, they're intense.
