Megadeth cover art

[Fangface]

At first I thought it was a hoax, but it looks like this is the cover of the new Deth album (United Abominations), made by a fan :

Is it me having bad tastes at covers (YES ), or is the drawing terrible??


If I had to choose between fan artworks, I would have chosen this one instead :

 

[The saYer]

as an early 90's comic books fan, I like it enough.

Well first of all, that's a shit quality picture, it'll surely look better in real life. The drawing isn't half bad as far as I can see, but the colors are a bit too flashy for a Megadeth album. Looks like a power metal album cover at first sight.
The theme itself is kinda like a remake of "Peace Sells" which is nice.

Yes. This one is much better.

None. Not only that the first one has a "unconfortable" resemblance to PSBWB cover if you know what I mean, while the second one is basically the cover of the remaster of KIMB.

So back to the drawing board Dave...

Not a fan of the cover.

Colors remind me of Pretty Maids, not Megadeth. Hope it isn't the final product. They need to darken or outline the logo so it stands out more. Get's lost in the yellow.

I don't care much about covers though. As long as the music's good.

I agree. The cover posted on here looks like a shot from a G.I. Joe cartoon!!!
Either way, just as long as the record smokes, who cares...

Ick. I don't like it. But won't stop me from not buying it.

It's not what I would expect! Kinda ugly!

I'm not a fan of the non - Vic covers, meaning Countdown and Youthanasia, but even they were a lot better imo.
I think since vinyls are something of the past, a lot less effort goes into cover designs.

I kinda like it, actually. It's...epic.

The picture has the quality of an old school super nitendo.

Not denying that, but who the hell wants an album cover looking like that. I'd rather have Megadeth make an album cover similiar to Killing Is My Bussiness or So Far So Good. Mainly because everytime I hear the name Megadeth those album covers pop into my head, I just like how simple and retro they are nothin too fancy, just good on the eyes.
