    Thanks a lot man! The cover was a handful of Zappa press photos and album covers overlaid on eachother but always lined up at the eyes. I tweaked the levels and contrast of each layer so their color scheme was similar in each. (Even Joe's Garage!). Then once i had the blend of images, I flattened and did a Photoshop halftone pattern with big dots. Then i took a gradient on the left side from black to invisible making it run out just after his skin started and did another halftone pattern on that to get a bit of a moire pattern there.

    Nothing overly complicated, but I liked the results. :D Thanks for asking man!

      soundtracks, very interesting arrangement and composition
