Who did the DoD 'artwork'?

[Mark]

I can't seem to find a credit on the booklet?

 

[The Navigator]

word on the street the background was done by Dave Patchett (The Cathedral guy) and a member of the Iron Maiden web team did the other stuff, and upon seeing the finished product, Mr. Cathedral Covers requested not to be credited.

 

[John Silver]

[Sydo]

Who would want to be credited with that?

 

[Mark]

It could've said "Artwork by thisbloke. Shitty bits added on by thisperson".

 

[Demonspell]

I think it's another penny-pinching scheme from Rod...he'll have an excuse to reissue the album with a cleaned up cover when the next series of reissued reissues comes out.

 

[Mark]

I'll wait for the limited edition, get-em-now-while-they're-cheap lunchbox-shaped collectors boxes with the remixed/remastered b-sides and the 25 live-at-Donington remix CDs with special glow-in-the-dark commemorative artwork

 

[Stormwatch]

Well, the guy who made it is obviously inexperienced at doing artwork, so you'd think he'd WANT a credit. I mean, for fuck sake HE must have liked it even if no one else does!

 

[Mark]

You never know. He may have sent them the Eddie & backdrop as a 'how does this look?' thing, and Rod & Steve said 'weyhey!'.

 

[Caroline]

could it have been the same person who did the ropey CGI (still makes me laugh when I see the CG band members looking like 15 year olds ) for the wildest dreams promo video?

 

[Sydo]

Just like the BNW vocals, the artist could have submitted what he thought was a demo, only to be told it was good enough!

 

[The Real Moonchild]

Maybe it was Skunk..she's incompetent even at making websites and running a board.

 

[Mark]

The new Maiden site is fine, IMO. And although I don't agree with some of the BB decisions she's made, you should put most of the blame on the incompetent mods there. Skunk's workload is usually tits-high, and if I was her I'd concentrate more on other things too.

Mind you, 2 years ago I would've pulled the plug on the entire forum if it were up to me

 

[Alex999]

good enough!

Someone really should let Steve and Rod know that sometimes, "good enough" is just not acceptable.

Wow you be more hated then kelly and skunk combined.

 

[Rodrigo]

I found it "interesting" that there was no credit for the "artist".

 

[Mark]

Me too

 

[Cortavenas]

please stop "posting" like this

It must have been a joke to the moaners, I bet

 

[Caroline]

I admit it it was me! I was playing with my crayons on a flyer, I didn't think they'd take it so seriously

I think the album cover ROCKS!! Whoever the artist was was a sheer genius. Someone actually had to find those images somewhere because there is no way an artist could draw them up. Then he also had to find a way to paste those images onto the cover without covering up the Eddieless Eddie. I think it looks like he pasted the cover without the images on a wall, blind folded himself and played pin the image on the cover. He must of cheated though, because they are pasted on there with such precision.
