I'm making this post to come back and remind myself how sometimes something so simple can end up looking pretty good. I decided to further develop my concept for the Chuck CD and getting rid of the guitar image and instead use guitar picks and a tree to further push the idea of GREEN packaging. I started out with some simple shapes drawin over a quick sketch and then went to work in photoshop and came up with this...
That's the front cover, the back cover, the inside cover, and the CD. The background behind the CD will probably just be a square version of the CD art... I haven't gotten feedback on this yet, but I like it... so far.. This is meant to be printed on a recycled cardboard stock, so I don't really think I could make a ghost box on the titles on the back cover.. so that might get changed
Other than that... I spent this past weekend with a friend up at Stan's amazing cabin... I was able to get some good work done and also discovered the awesomeness of Corel Painter 11. Since getting my Wacom Intuos tablet last week, I haven't had time to use it much, but here's the second thing I drew....
This is just part of the awesome view from the back of Stan's cabin, and I digitally painted this using Corel. If you have a tablet, you might want to see about getting this program as it allows you to make some awesome stuff. This was my first time using the program and I got this result which is pretty nice. I can't wait till we get done with school so I can really learn how to use it... If nobody told me beforehand, I'd think this was a real painting...

Grooving to the new imagery and inspiration. Glad you had a chance to visit the cabin. Open invitation anytime.
the chuck loeb design looks really great! love the guitar pick leaves.
That looks so awesome, Jason!
the cd package is very nice and cohesive. Can't wait to see what it looks like printed on the special paper
