Making the Final Piece

For my final piece I started from my final draft. I then changed the background with a different colour and texture until it looked how I wanted, I then added new hand drawn border of runes to the  front and back covers.

I wasn't happy with how the celtic design or the tree on the front cover looked so I found a different design then drew it out myself,  I then added it to the front and added colour to it. For the inside sleeves, I added the border as a texture background at low opacity. Then I placed my tree in the correct places on the back two covers (top left & middle) so I knew where to place the text. I then added all the appropriate text for the; tracklist, thanks, artists, producers and the title of the album. I then added the remaining important parts for the front cover, such as the barcode, explicit warning etc. 
I then moved on to the inside covers and made a design for the cd area (centre) from the original celtic pattern by flipping it and connecting up the lines correctly so it fitted with the heads showing above and below the cd. Then using some of my other drawings, I added a nice simple design to the other two parts to finish my final piece. The right hand side, I decided to add the mountains moon and stars as the imagery for my album cover because it fitted with the songs, I used for inspiration and they looked nice.
