Magazine Cover Mock-Ups

Both of my magazine covers will follow the same layout, with the main image in a box in the centre with an accompanying background design, as well as the masthead and issue information at the top, and the main coverline at the bottom, etc. Both covers will have a different, distinct, colour-scheme, however, with a different pattern for the background, and different font style for the main coverline. One of my magazine covers may also have a puff, or perhaps a different number of coverlines. 

By having a consistent layout and style I can create a unique and distinct brand image that can be recogniseable to audiences at a glance, and so that they can tell that both products are the same brand. I will be using different colours and patterns with every cover, however, as this allows my brand to be unique, and it will prevent all my products looking the same and thus uninteresting. Whilst elements such as the coverlines will use the same fonts, I may have slight variations in their style - e.g. one cover has a stroke/outline.
