[fotograffiti]

no contest, just some fun. I stole the idea from a forum way back, it was fun to do.
Preferably Photo shop/Photography mag, but could be anything really

In my last full time job (before I retired in 2012) I was employed at a Oilcompany in Switzerland. We operated six refineries in Europe. I worked as a graphic designer in the department internal communication. I was responsible for the design and production of the company employee's magazine. It has been translated into four languages ​​and published monthly.

The magazine cover was always a big challenge for me, although sometimes more than 12 different designs were necessary until I got the OK from the management.

Forget who changed the text, I had removed the original text, and then #3 popped up!

I did the last one Mike, I remember it taking quite a while to clone that necklace and shadow. Replacing the shirt was a challenge as well. Fun times.

Wow ...very cool idea of you to create a PSG magazine fotograffiti.

I like it very much, though my first impression is that the cover looks a bit dark and the inserted images are to small.
The future is ours, hahah. I appreciate your comment and I look forward to the "interview".

 

[fotograffiti]

For once, I saved the PSD so I can edit the mag.
See if you like it better after it's done
