I started a fun little project as I am re-doing some of my old crap covers. This one is about 10 maybe 12 years old and it really sucks. lol Unfortunately, I did not know to save my work in PSD or Gimp formats back then so most of my older work I can't make changes. I'm sure we all have those old dreaded looking covers from when we first started. Maybe our great designers would like to share some of them. Well, here is mine. I was so proud of this and now it makes me cringe.

Nice improvement Kev!

I have MANY crappy ones in the closet, and much worst than your first take for SOA, so don't ask me to share them, lol

Nice update Kev, it true our standards change a lot and the longer you stay at this hobby the more the older works bug you or mine do me.

I recall making this in 2004 was the first cover I ever did where I blended images, extending the red banner along the top and back. It was a huge success for me and got more downloads across all the sites that I posted it to than any cover ever had. Lots of comments from all heavyweights I was in awe of back then too.

Now I look at it and cringe in horror but I leave it as a reminder of where I came from.

Thanks, Curt. That is the fun of it, learning new things to improve, getting better each day. Thanks for sharing your cover though it's a pretty nice looking cover coming from King Curt.
