Looking at this piece of work, from month ago, and looking at my current product, I can say that I have come a very long way in terms of my knowledge of the industry with the conventions of magazines, and my Photoshop skills. This was when I first started thinking about designs for my front cover, obviously this one was not going to be thought about any more, as I had most the conventions of magazines wrong. the masthead is in the wrong place, the barcode is in the wrong place, the date and issue number is in the wrong place.
However; even though there are a lot of bad things about this magazine I do like how even at the start of me not knowing much about Photoshop and conventions, I made the magazine look decent enough, with the fiery background and the photoshopped band members to be in front of the fire. Also this is the image that I wanted to use, and there was no room for the Masthead at the top left corner.
