Title: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Custard. on August 18, 2008, 12:55:21 PM Just saw Dirtmag are running a competition to design a new cover for an issue of dirt.
If you win, gets published etc. I know theres a fair few arty guys on here so thought id make you aware if youve got enough spare time to give it a go. Heres my first attempt : (http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/3486/dirtcoverfn4.jpg) Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Rider on August 18, 2008, 13:08:35 PM Youve put "Whistler- Ninja Cougar" twice by the way... but it looks really good other than that.
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Custard. on August 18, 2008, 14:24:17 PM oh yeh yeh cheers will change.
Was copy and pasting / rearranging and obviously forgot to delete ! Thanks for the pointer haha. :) Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Aiken on August 18, 2008, 14:29:11 PM Is the 2012 meant to have the forward slash and question mark after it?

Yeh yeh, deliberate. Dont quite know why. I always do it and after looking through a few of my old dirt mags for ideas so do they haha. I always use weird punctuation (in an attempt for it to look good ? i dont really know :-\) Im still working on it so thats not a final design, bit stuck for ideas atm. Also didnt know what titles to use ? they dont give you any. So just made up aload of storys ?

Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: WDH on August 19, 2008, 11:11:02 AM Ye i entered this a few months ago. My entry was up with a load of others on their but i think its either over or they have forgotten its on. Unless theres a new article about it put up on the dirt site.
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Jeron on August 19, 2008, 11:15:22 AM Pretty sure this comp is over?
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: chodjinn on August 19, 2008, 11:16:10 AM I would have thought the content needs more addressing than the chuffin' front cover. Used to love that mag, its been shite for years now though.

I bought dirt once, I found it had no real writing but loads of awesome pictures, well thats compared to MBUK. Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: CallumSwift on August 20, 2008, 10:16:23 AM Here is my version I did last night
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Pete.. on August 20, 2008, 10:18:50 AM Callum wins! f'ing awsum!
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: CallumSwift on August 20, 2008, 11:24:15 AM or this one, cant decide which I prefer
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Razor on August 20, 2008, 11:28:15 AM ^^^^^^^^
That one, the first looks like the picture has been turned 90 degrees. Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: Rider on August 20, 2008, 11:29:59 AM I like the design of both but i also think that in both the photos let them down.
Title: Re: DIRT MAG - Cover Competition Post by: CallumSwift on August 20, 2008, 11:49:37 AM ^^^^^^^^ That one, the first looks like the picture has been turned 90 degrees. it does actually! but i promise it wasnt, look at the shrubs in the bottom, it was taken on a very steep berm. Unfortunatly as im usually videoing I never really get a chance to take photos so I was very limited. the second photo was taken by Sven Martin but he only emailed me low res ones for the moment Callum |
