Aces Wild- CD cover

Aces Wild- CD single cover

This is an old post from CreativeIreland.com that I'd forgotten about

This design was used on a limited edition CD by my band Aces Wild.

I reused some of these elements in the final album artwork as well


I notice a couple of these images are getting cropped here- don't know why

Here is one i did recently for my own band Aces Wild

Here is the prelim sketch for this cover




Then I worked it up a bit




I had the idea of making a card featuring each member of the band- heres me

Its a bit like that bit in Reservoir Dogs, in this case instead of everyone wanting to be Mr Black i had to decide who was going to be the Ace of Spades( the coolest card!)

In the end the singer got that! I took Hearts simply cos no-one else would want it




Heres the final( i think) cover


and here is the whole thing-itll wrap around the cd




some details lost in optimising..but you get the idea
