Finally, I inserted Chris! and the skyline text along with a price and 'RL productions'. Overall I am pleased with how it turned out.
In this stage I slightly lowered the mast head to make room to design a skyline. Also at this stage i inserted cover lines with a very bold look to them which suited the house style of the magazine. Aswell as this i also added a bar code.
Then i focused on the main cover line, i used the same technique for this as i did the mast head, apart from I also used the texturizer and gave it an icy, cold feel to it.
Next was the mast head, made up of to layers. the bottom layer with a strong gaussian blur filter and the top one with slightly dropped opacity for the blur beneath to give it a glowing look.
I started of with to simple brush textures that I then altered by using layers and curves and also levels.
