Here is a screenshot of my final front cover. I have made slight changes from the last time I put it on my blog. One of which is adding the last sell line to the right of the main image. For this sell line I wanted it to fit in with the others. The '4' and '2016' I purposely made larger than the size of the font because I wanted the numbers to jump out the page, catching the readers eye as they glance across the page.
Overall I am content with my front cover because I feel it has successfully followed my draft and looks how I wanted it to. From my draft, I added shadows behind the text and gave some sell lines a white outline. I did this because I felt it needed something extra to make the sell lines lift off the page, attracting the reader. Even though I am happy with the cover, if I were to do this again, I'd make the masthead larger to fill out the space and make the head of the artist more obvious that he is in front of the masthead text. This is so it really emphasises the 3D look I was going for whilst creating the page.
