How to design a Jason Falkner cover without even trying



A couple of weeks back for my post announcing the tracklisting for Jason's new album All Quiet On The Noise Floor (http://artintodust.blogspot.com/2009/07/jason-falkner-all-quiet-on-noise.html )I banged up a bogus cover (at the time there was no graphic of the cover around-I added the real actual cover a few days later) basically mucking around on the riff that Jason does a Be Bop Deluxe song on the record originally on their first album Axe Victim.. so i combined the cover of that album with a photo of Jason..it was just a bit of a lark...I even pointed out that this was not the actual cover. End of story until a few minutes ago when i decided to check out the HMV Japan site to try and work out how to actually buy the new album (i did not work it out sadly) and what do i find? Well this...



and clicking on that took me to this



and if you then click to enlarge you end up with.....blimey heck in a hand cart...



so as you can see even though i did not actually design a Jason Falkner album cover without really trying..for the next few days or so until they realise their mistake i can bask in the surreal glory that i did the cover of the new Jason Falkner album..yay for me...sort of ..........

actually this below is the real cover
