Album Cover Draft 2

So far I have finalised what I want to be my band name is (S& M) and I've thought out a different album name (Overdose). Using the same font for all of the characters is not a conventional style for punk rock album covers, so last night I founded some of my old rock magazines and cut out a few letters to create a ransom note style for the name of the band. Overdose was roughly cut out from the perfume packaging of 'Loverdose'. I couldn't find a '&' sign so I tried out a few styles to create it myself on paper, I used mascara, nail polish and even red lipstick to create a roughed up punk rock style, finally I settled with the nail polish drawn and mascara textured '&' then I burnt one of the edges of the roughly ripped out '&' to give it a trashy look.

This is the 'S' I am going to use for the cover of the album


I was testing a few ideas for the '&' sign, this was one of them.

This is what it looked like with the other parts of the lexis 'S & M'

This was another testing idea for the '&'. This is what it looked like with the other parts of the lexis 'S & M'

Here's the 'M' I am going to use.

Here's the Album name.

The complete result. All I need now for my album cover is some decoration and a main image.
