Re: my imaginary cover artworks for uw ...
hey Doc! Some very nice images in there! The Boy,Boy,Boy cover's grity picture recollects the tractor covr of Nuxx for me. I think that the OWB covers are especially effective in toning down the graphics of the Tomato-designed covers...less is sometimes more!
Several of these also seem like the dark-and-long/Cowgirl/dirty epic era artwork...bolder typography, a few random textual/numerical graphics, and the classic contrasts. Well done!
my only criticism would be the uNDERwORLD font you're using...not a big fan of that computerized look (is it Lucida or Console), it's always seemed a bit dated to me. But no worries.
Thanks for sharing!

very nice...good job..

however, this should be posted in the craft/process forum
(although maybe you're right, as the process forum is pretty
empty)..

it's not really that much "computerized" , as it's a good ol' pica font !

Re: my imaginary cover artworks for uw ...
well ... i've jus' added two alternative versions for a "boy boy boy" cover to the directory , which i actually still find a bit - erm - too "gloomy" to fit to the song & to uw in general , but maybe u like it ... even more than i do !?

cheers !
