I have completed my front cover's draft. Here is my result, I am very happy with what I have done. I apologise for the loss of quality due to blogger's limit, considering the image was quite a large attachment.
I placed Vikki's hair over the top of the title as it looks like she is leaning out of the picture, so it makes it look more realistic. I included an "EXCLUSIVE" extra to show that there is backstage info inside the magazine, to get the customers' attention, as we all like a bit of extra gossip. I also included a "Get your next issue FREE" sticker type thing on the front so that people can keep up to date with their next issue without having to pay, basically giving 2 magazines for the price of 1. Everybody likes free things in life. A "Win your iPod" competition along with this makes the magazine look like its full up of extra stuff. Instead of putting the word "an" I replaced it with the word "your" to make it look like this is the way to getting your iPod, as if you win the competition, it will be "yours". Quotes have been included on the front along with the main story cover healine, showing that there is an interesting interview to be read inside. I included some famous bands on the front to make the magazine look more realistic, as though I have found out gossip about other bands, which everybody likes.

I love the image you have used i think it is beautifully clear and the lighting on her face looks very professional. The effect used on the title to blend behind her head is very interseting. I also like how the free gift is the same colour as the title of the artist adding sense of house style through out your magazine front page!
I love the lighting on her face, really adds depth to the photo. I think using the red from her lips in the masthead and for the coverlines looks really good. Definitely looks like a music magazine, and I like the flame ball.
