Description EDIT - Got some feedback from the band and my teacher this is hopefully the final version. You can see the other promotional work I did here - [link]


An album cover done for local Freo band Hand Stands for Ants. Done part as a graphic design assignment, we were assigned a band manager to do promotional work for a local band. However I'm still waiting to get feedback from the band memebers on this final design. Still not happy with the type, I need feeback from my teacher once I get back to class. The band didn't have nor do they want a logo.

I drew up three concepts and this was the one they liked. The theme of the album was 'change' and they wanted something creppy yet fun. They're music is really good i listened to a fair bit of it while working on this. They're new album is more electronic so I tried to incorporate that into the design as well.

This is beautiful, I love her lips and the overalll use of colours. There's no doubt I'd buy this album just for the cover.

Nice! Reminds me of a 70's horror film poster- maybe a foreign flick that would creep up late on cable and scare the crap out of someone who turned to it unaware of what was going on until a body part went flying off...

Gorgeous.
The style, the colors, the font, i love pretty much everything about this.
It really catches mt eye and makes me want to learn more about this band. So good work really.

This is incredible! The change in colors makes it really pop. And I see what you did with the digital part. I like that a lot.
The typography is pretty cool, but meh ;___; there's something about it I don't like.

Love this one, it's really interesting to look at! I would definitely want this as the cover if I was in a band.

its great but the skull on top seems just a little disproportioned with the body below...if it were 1 head the part between nose and mouth would be rele long. But it is fabulous otherwise!!! Awesome concept!!!!

Holy crap! It looks reallyyyy good so far. It must not be easy to draw stuff like this but you did a great job! But the thing in the bottom right seems not enough '3D', maybe it's supposed to be like that ? Anyways, love it. <3
