My "Chinese Democracy" cover artwork

[Brundle25]

Why doesnt someone knock up some artwork with the 'Chinese dude on the boat' as displayed on the video screens during the intro to Chinese Democracy (the song). I remeber the image on the video screens was played in paris 2006.
This would be a good bet for Final artwork as its already official 'artwork'.

This is my first take on some Chinese Democracy cover art, I started using this program yesterday. I must say though, that the NY-tourlogo-picture in the background is not made by me, I remember saving it from a thread like this (if not this one, I can't remember). I think it's really cool done, so I edited it a bit further, and used it with the fishing picture. Actually, I think it turned out pretty well

i like it a valient effort

personally i think that the cover should just be the black star in Chinese writting. Something simple and to the point

Anyone who interested in using the work i did for my 2006 module diploma in design school please let me know. Hope u guys like.

I know this an old post, but a printable version of your cover would be really great!

not sure if this is the right forum or not. request to move if its not cool here Jarmo.



this is a project i did for a class. we had to design a CD or DVD cover and i knew from the start i was going to do Chinese Democracy.

cover - i drew the dragon which im happy with but my PS skills are still n00bish but im getting better; i discoverd the "texturize" filter and used that on a picture of the chinese flag. i also warped it to give it some movement. once i put a droop shadow on the dragon it really came to life

back - i wanted this part to look like traditional chinese art. watercolors and kanji. i took a picture of the old GNR logo and threw in there (with water color filter and some erasing precision). the bar code is the symbol for "wealth" (which i get a little humor out of) and i put the Uzi Suicide and Geffen (should it be Interscope?) logos through watercolor filter too.

the track list is made of some songs i have heard and some rumoured titles. so, i havent heard them all but i imagine that listing having a nice flow to it much like Appetite did. i chose 12 songs because thats what was on Appetite as well.

Sailing is a song by Rod Stewart from his album Atlantic Crossing which I think is from '75.

Axl loves Rod Stewart

Has he said so? Maybe he just likes the song.
Sailing is not originally a rod stewart song. his was also a cover.

I was watching the roundup of 07 f1 on the telly when a friend popped in.
And she still tells people I'm mad keen on kimi. Not fair. 
 

In GTA: SA, Tommy "The Nightmare" Smith, says something like: "England has produced some great singers, this is one of them..." He then introduces Rod Stewart. Yeah I know it's just a script for a videogame, but can't see Axl saying that without some truth to it...

I'm not big on queen and yet I think they made great music. Is this complicated?

[Regibold]

Ummmmm......probably nothing, but this CAN'T be the official artwork, can it???

I remember a while back somebody posting an Axl quote talking about how hard it is to pull off Rod Stewart's vocals...maybe on the Eddie Trunk interview?  Damn, I can't remember, but I swear I've heard him mention Rod in a positive light.

No. Under the picture it says: Customer image from Dominic

and when you look at it in larger size it says "This is from the heretodaygonetohell.com message board; NOT created by me!!"
