I love old EC horror comics - some fantastic stories and artwork, check them out if you haven't already! Anyway, I came across some Painter/Photoshop tutorials to illustrate and give an aged look to a comic cover, so I fancied giving it a whirl.
It's at the rough stage at the moment, and the aging effect isn't finished all the way round, but I like the way it's looking already, I hafta say! Some of the aged effects are painted on, some are scanned in from covers found on the net. Some nifty fonts really add some punch to the cover too, so I can't wait to see this finished.
I wasn't sure about the title 'Putrid Potboilers' at first, but it's grown on me now. It also needs other details like issue number, price, etc - anyway, more updates as it comes along! If it's successful there could be a whole series of them soon
