Author: UNDEROATH

Purpose: Album cover for the Christian band UNDEROATH

Elements of the design you like: The desert is very similar to the one I want to use in our album cover. I also like how darkened the background is, although in ours the sky won’t be darkened.

Elements of the design you dislike: Nothing really, I enjoy most features about the album cover.

Any feature you think is missing: In ours, I’m going to add more detail. This album cover is a little bleak.

Purpose: Album cover for the Christian band MercyMe

Elements of the design you like: I like the contrast between the earth and sky, and I am going to use a similar space effect on our album cover,.

Elements of the design you dislike: I dislike the tree on the ground, and will not be using it or anything similar in ours.

Any feature you think is missing: I don’t think anything is really missing from it. It isn’t bleak, and there isn’t much space wasted.

Author: Seventh Day Slumber

Purpose: An album cover for the Christian band Seventh Day Slumber

Elements of the design you like: I really like the exploding and space effects on the design, and plan to use something similar on our album cover.

Elements of the design you dislike: I don’t like that there are explosives causing the explosion. In ours, it will be just some miraculous beauty that causes it.

Any feature you think is missing: I wouldn’t describe anything as missing per say, instead I think that what is has done works for it, but I won’t be using everything used here.

Author: Casting Crowns

Purpose: Album cover for the Christian band Casting Crowns

Elements of the design you like: I like the visual effect of the scratched up and bright image. I will probably use this effect for the title on our album cover.

Elements of the design you dislike: There isn’t anything I really dislike about the cover, but there are features that I will not be using.

Any feature you think is missing: Again, I don’t think anything is really missing. Instead, I just think that there are parts of the album cover that I will not emulate on our own.

Author: Rush of Fools

Purpose: An album cover for the Christian band Wonder of the World

Elements of the design you like: I like the environment that the album is set in, and will probably use a similar backdrop for our own album cover.

Elements of the design you dislike: I don’t particularly like the lighting effect on the cover, as it isn’t dark but it is bleak, so I won’t be using it for our album cover.

Any feature you think is missing: I think that more could be added to the sky, as it is kind of boring, just rolling clouds. And the lighting effect takes away from the effect that the clouds could have.

Author: Building 249

Purpose: An album cover for the Christian band Building 429

Elements of the design you like: I really like the space design, and am definitely going to use a similar space dust/starry effect.

Elements of the design you dislike: I dislike the actual eye part of the design, although it works for this album cover, I won’t be making any distinct shapes with the space debris on our own cover.

Any feature you think is missing: I think there could be more added generally. It is very centered around one thing, and isn’t very complicated. It is eye catching but it doesn’t hold your attention for very long.

Author: Pillar

Purpose: An album cover for the Christian band Pillar.

Elements of the design you like: I like the lighting effect a lot, and will probably use it for the earth on our own cover.

Elements of the design you dislike: I dislike the arena style, and I think the sky looks too much kike the earth.

Any feature you think is missing: I think more could be added in the terms of characters. The lone flag works but maybe if there was a crowd it would be better.
