    Well, you really improved your design. The colors you used are definitely hard to handle, but you managed it really well. The color overlays are transparent enough to give an impression of the hues below and yet, that skin tone holds it all together.

    The only point of criticism (imho) is the tracklist on the backcover. I never liked fonts like that, and, kore important, it simply does not fit into your design. Contrasting fonts is a good method, but the "RCA"-font and the comic book font do not go together well. I think, a straight sans serif typeface would be a better choice.

    Anyway, a very fine cover.




    PS: Just like Ron, I would like to know the name of that RCA font. Recently, I took pains to recreate the 70s RCA logo as a crisp outline eps ...

    A very fine piece of work Sergio


    I really like how you used the sherriff's badge...gives it that "old west" theme which I like a lot

    I am also curious to know what's the name of that font that resembles the old RCA logo?

    A fine piece of work overall.......now, on to the next one

    Re

    Thanks for the imput friends. Glad you enjoyed it

    Manhattoe, I did the alterations on the font as you said. The other font I used had a kind of amateurish look to it.
    Now, lets see how the DISC ONE will do

    Thanks for sharing, Sergio and Unchained.
    Although OS X handles Windows fonts, too, I am glad that this site offers a native Macintosh font.
    Very nice to have that font!

    Hi Sergio,

    In my eyes, it looks much better now, but you can still improve it.

    I am so insistent about that point, because the rest of your fine design deserves a tracklist that is really styled. As for now, it still looks a bit as if it was just typed into the design.

    Would you mind me making a definite suggestion?
