After working on the layout I could finally start on the front cover. Many High Fashion Magazines often rely on one dominant image that graces the front cover of the magazine. Taking inspiration from this provided to be a problem. The image used for the front cove of Gun Mart wasn't the most stylish of images. After working on photoshop to increase its canvas size I then started to clone stamp the background to increse it before layering the text on top. I started to highlight the typefaces using white and orange in Baskerville Bold as the background was very dark. I also wanted to establish a visual link between the text and the background image.
