Draft magazine cover

Recently, along with fine-tuning my edit, I have begun working on the cover for my magazine. My main inspiration for this has been Esquire, which has a very sleek, elegant style that communicates luxury. My magazine will be a similarly luxurious magazine aimed at men.





This is the current design which I have - the title and all of the text are only temporary and will be modified later. The sketch is also just a demonstration of what the image will be like (I will be doing a photoshoot soon with the actors). I want the cover to be completely grayscale apart from the background at the top, similar to this issue of Esquire
