I hadn't even noticed to be honest, hopefully it's not a problem. Besides the circle I don't see much to be honest with you guys, but feel free to critique the stuff for sure. Hope it is a plus! ha

I do see some similarities, just the circles, but the rest of the artwork, I'm not so sure. Just my opinion though, and certainly was anything but intentional, just went that way with the idea I had. I feel it's different enough, the circles are there because of the concept I explained earlier. I'm glad you guys like it though. Am uploading the full artwork with a disc which I just finished now also.
I doubt it's gonna be a problem. Let the community decide, of course :)

Hopefully that image uploaded, I have only done it once and it took a few goes, ha. But this is the cover I've been working on so far. Cheers!
Liking this a lot, but i feel it's a bit too similar to OOT4…
It's similar to OOT4 in the same way that a pizza is similar to a frisbee.

I really like it Dave. Very tasteful. 8)

Besides which, what's wrong with similar? The artwork for Campfire Headphase draws threads from MHTRTC.

It's lovely, well done again.

I like the circles. Given it's volume 6, avoiding the obvious hexagons/666 motifs is showing a lot of restraint and I like how you've mirrored it in having tree rings on the inside art.

Thanks man, really appreciate the feedback, I'm not totally happy with the font either, still messing about with it at the moment.

Not submitting this, as it's shite, but been playing about tonight and figured we could use a laugh. One or two of you might recognise yourselves...

I think this might be a better version of mine.

Going to work it into a full design anyway, might tone down the colours as well.

Firstly, you're too kind :oops:

Secondly, that's a significant improvement you've made with yours. Nice one.

Thanks and seriously, I particularly like the figures and the - is it a suburban street? It's got a sinister look, even without the pyramid and eye. Mess around with it and submit something, why not?
