For my second cover design (before I found out we had to solely use original images) I looked at even more examples of gaming magazines to get an idea of the themes and rules they followed. whilst researching, I found myself running into a basic “template” on how most gaming magazines are formatted. I decided to use a more vibrant image of an upcoming RPG. Again, I kept the A4 size for previous reasons stated in my first magazine post. I found the way I designed this cover odd and difficult to work with as I couldn’t decide with where each piece of text should go or how big and small the images should be ending up with a clash of colours that were unreadable and just generally an ugly design. Overall, as I was so unhappy with this design, I decided to scrap this idea.
