johnnymax865 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 probably it's as fake as the author (cause he isn't really noel gallagher...) prspekt or coldplay should tell someting more clear now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alvin.ping Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I love how people say it looks "Photoshopped" as an argument to it being a fake. Heads up guys, EVERYTHING IS PHOTOSHOPPED. That's what 99% of the industry uses to compose images. Did you know the official cover for Violet Hill was Photoshopped? Did you know the actual album art was Photoshopped? Honestly. Reasons would be nice. :dozey: Needless to say, I don't think it's legit, and if it is, I don't like it. Mainly because the composition is poor, and tonality is poorly balanced across the canvas.

magodeoz Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 ^Ok, then, I'd say it looks photoshopped by an amateur ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldplayer11 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 if it was locust7..i'd think we'd believe locust7 in a second!:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Famous Old Painter Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 If that is the real cover then the thread starter really is Noel Gallagher! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acer_NoDoubter Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 i really don't understand why people go all the way to create an account and just make one lousy post about a fake coverart.... I'll tell you why it's fake: if the art department in EMI thinks as an actual art department, they wouldn't use a painting for a single cover art, since they didn't use one for the VH single, and as an art department who cares about your artist, you should keep a line of artwork and make all of your releases for the same album as equal as possible... anyways, it's just a graphic designer's 2-cents.....

bresc Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 ...it doesn't take a lot of effort to stick the "Viva La Vida" paintstrokes - made red by a blend filter - on top of a random classical painting. i hate to point it out semy but that's preeety much all they've done on the album cover too.:P i do think it was painted on nicely though...

alyssa Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Well the Viva La Vida paint strokes probably took a bit of effort to make originally.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus_mosher Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 it's the same lettering off the album cover just photoshopped red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exist2inspire Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 To me, the font is similar to another called Levibrush used in all caps. I've used it before on some of my work and I got from dafont.com. I know it isn't the same font, but you can add some brushing to it and it would look very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriftedFar^ Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 And what's your definition of an FTP index Mr. Oasis hacker? I've never heard of that term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
