Development for magazine content

These are my ideas for my inspiration magazine. For the magazine content I decided to draw a future concept motorcycle. After i draw these three concepts I decided to do line drawings of the
front, back,side and someone riding the bike.

This is going to be the content images for the inspiration magazine. I chose to do line drawings because I think that they are a simple but effective way of putting your point across. Also i wanted to test my self and develop new art skills.

Motorcycle Magazine Inspiration

The layout of this double page spread is very clear and simple, images down the bottom and text at the top. There is block text on the left page and a diagram on the top of the right page.

 On this double page spread the main image is predominately on the left.

I like how in this magazine the image has really good depth in it.
