LOL

Just a few observations I'd like to mention...

1. Your atrocious excuse for a school project is easily by far the most hideous Tech N9ne mock cover I've ever had the misfortune and displeasure to lay eyes on. I hope somebody ejaculates all over a steel wool blow up doll and slaps your dense skull unconscious with it for fouling up this forum and claiming your Stanish garbage pale kids graphic design attempt (or lack-there-of) is remotely contendable with the "Something Else" deluxe album art.

2. Tech N9ne has reemphasized the fact that he posed for the original concept later encompassed in an actual painting for the final product. With that in mind, it's quite possible that it was interpreted by the artist to resemble a showcased illustration with caricaturistic qualities.

3. This entire conversation could have easily took place in the main "Something Else" thread as it's topic falls under the premise of the LP's discussion.

Thats my point, both of these are better covers than the current Something Else cover. Thanks for the tips though.

That needs quite a bit of work... No real defined focal point, Tech is severely skewed horizontally, too cluttered...

 

I made this when I was 15 without any "graphic design classes"... And it still could use improvement as well.

And yes I do know a little bit about making album covers, I made one in my first semester graphic design class, in high school. It was my version of welcome to strangeland cover.

The heart looks just cut and pasted from the E.B.A.H. cover, there shouldn't be a box around the heart. The flames Should have been made to look more like a crown, not just something thrown on there. The body looks nothing like Tech, it's too small for the head, the shoulders are too narrow. The face looks alright it's nothing special. I know it's supposed to look like a cartoon, but it looks too cartoonish. it's like its a bunch of seperate pictures just thrown together with some filters. I would get and F for work like this in my graphic design class.

The photoshop work in this thread is horrible lmao. And Greg, you're a complete dumb ass, that's not how the cover was made at all. The "Something Else" cover is a digital painting. A rough one at that, it could do with a LOT of refining. The arms and chest especially. I like the concept but unfortunately the artwork fell short.

Fuck no. Digipaks can suck my dick. When you buy them brand new they're already dog eared and beat up. And of course if you listen to the CD a lot it only gets worse and the stupid thing falls apart. Jewel cases all the way.

I wonder if this will be raised like KOD so the effects can pop.
