Conquest of Steel - Artwork Competition

Postby dddanger on Tue Oct 28, 2008 8:58 pm

The Concept is Unleashed!!

- The UK’s finest Heavy Metal Warriors Conquest of Steel are entering the studio once more in order to record their third album ‘Storm Sword (Rise of the Dread Queen)’ a concept album in the truest sense, it charts the rise and fall of an empire over 45 minutes via the medium of Heavy Metal.

- For a chance to read the saga in full go to http://www.conquestofsteel.co.uk or http://www.myspace.com/conquestofsteel

- Recording takes place once again at Priory and Red Flag Studios and mixing and mastering should be complete by the end of the year. ‘Storm Sword’ is set to be released in February 2009.

Competition:

Conquest of Steel are offering you the chance to get involved in the creation of ‘Strom Sword’ so dust off your brain pans and unleash those creative juices to help them create the ultimate in Heavy Metal album covers. Your task is to design the image for the front cover, their artist is currently sharpening her brushes and wetting her pencils in preparation for your ideas, but worry not artistic skill is not required. Your ideas can be submitted via a written brief or thumbnail sketch, hell stickmen will do.

For more details head to http://www.conquestofsteel.co.uk or http://www.myspace.com/conquestofsteel where you’ll find a full track-listing and details of the concept itself, in the meantime get thinking.

The winner of the competition will have his or her name credited and the top five entrants will receive a superb Conquest goody bag, featuring copies of all the band’s recorded output (including the ultra rare Stadiums of Steel vinyl) and much more.


How to submit: email- sketches, written briefs to band@conquestofsteel.co.uk these should be sent as relatively low resolution jpegs. Make sure you mark it Re: Artwork submissions

I'm loving the way Pauly is pointing at your comments from the side, it makes everything look like a threat or a fact.

Of course. I'm in them which automatically makes us better than Heretic.

But sadly not as awesome as Jekazol.
