Vinyl idea #2

So guys, I recently mentioned that Me and Connor wanted to create a vinyl for our album. We've discussed a few options in order to make our vinyl cover stand out.

1) Me and Connor came up with the idea of making the 'Foreigners' on the front of our album cover made out of wood. We thought it'd look effective if the Foreigners were not 2D but 3D pieces of wood in the shape of the outline on our album. This was the first idea we came up with which meant it had a few faults. Although this would look great being 3D it does face a few issues, one being that they could fall off completely, which wouldn't be appropriate as it's an album.

2) Instead we came up with a second idea. We wanted to focus on the Foreigner, that's why we came up with the wooden idea. Instead we thought of making the foreigner icons completely transparent. By doing this, it would mean people would see the vinyl itself. We felt in order to make this stand out more, we would make the vinyl all white in order to seem like a cloud matching our sky theme.

3) As I mentioned in point 2, Me and Connor wanted to make a colourful vinyl as it will be visible. We came up with multiple ideas, one being creating a sky look matching our front cover. We would do this by spray painting our vinyl a sky blue colour. Then using a white paint to create cloud shapes. Although this may be very difficult to achieve, we feel it would look great in contrast with the front cover of our album.

I'll keep you updated on our progress...
