Rough Draft of Album

This is the original image which I worked with.
One of my favorite bands, Live. This is their original album cover.

In this rough draft please note that I am only RECREATING the album cover. I will make changes later on, or I may even scrap this entirely and do something else. 

I traced this image in Illustrator using the live trace tool. Then opened it up in Photoshop to fill in the rest.

Here, I expanded the canvas, and filled the the mask with a solid black color











 
Next, I filled the background with a charcoal color.

Here, I added typesetting, and the red line over the "I" is used with the shape tool.

 Album Cover, recreated.

Album cover, with denim background, colored mask, and beveled typesetting.
