i'm getting ready to release a CD and need some artwork for the cover.

anybody have a recommendation for an artist that has some pretty cool work out there?

thanks in advance,
mark
 
"The Broodwich" hangs on out here & did an amazing job on the Final Stage CD artwork:

Thanks Oz, you kick ass. I kinda liked how that one turned out, aside from that low-res man in the cloak they wanted so bad haha oh well

here's some of my stuff

Metaltastic: thanks! I've never played Mass Effect but I'm looking at some screen shots now that you said something. Very cool. That was supposed to be a cover for my band's demo but the day I finished it I had a hard drive fail before I backed it up and the high-res version is lost forever :mad: Crock of shit!! Anyway, maybe some day I'll convert it to high res and try to clean it up so I can use it for something.

Guitargodgt: I dunno. I haven't done CD artwork in about a year and back then I was charging 200 for a cover and like 500 for a full 8-page booklet and tray package but I've gotten a lot better and might add a zero (just kidding) I'm willing to negotiate based on the project and number of revisions. I've gone as low as 100 and as high as 300 for a cover.
 
OH MAN! Is anyone using that for an album? If not I might be interested in purchasing that

edit: nvm i just read your post about your hard drive crash :(
Seriously if you really want to buy it I can see what I can do to get it into high res. Even this resolution would look fine on a CD cover so as long as you dont wanna press into vinyl or a poster. send me a PM

How much if I gave you 100% control artistically? 1 page just the front (I'm just gonna have credits on the inside so no art needed).
 
Wow, lots of great sites/artists posted! I couldn't have checked here at a better time. My band is hashing this stuff out right now with what art to use... at the moment we are more interested in something for a T-Shirt design but I think most of this will translate well!

Thank you to everyone that has posted a link!
