Inspiration for front cover

This is a front cover of Kerrang Magazine. a magazine of a genre similar to mine, with Hayley Williams of Paramore as the cover model. I like the colour scheme of this front cover, its basic yet looks effective and neat. I also like the overall layout and the way the images and text are placed on the page.  
This is another Kerrang front cover with the members of Bring Me The Horizon as the main image. I again like the basic colour scheme, it is very similar to the colour scheme of the cover above in that the palette consists of three coloursI again like the layout of the cover, it gives the impression the magazine has a lot of interesting content yet doesn't look too cluttered.
This is a front cover of NME magazine, again a magazine of a similar genre to mine, with Crystal Castles as the main image. Although this is a different brand the basic colour scheme and layout of the magazine are similar to that of Kerrangs. The layout is very similar also with the masthead being placed central or to the left, the main image and sell line being central or to the right with the smaller stories arranged neatly around it  and the barcode and issue number in the right hand corner.
