Feedback on card designs

I developed my sketches on illustrator and added colours. Although they are all different colours they are the same illustrated style with the same typography to bring them together. I liked my designs however knew I needed feedback from others to see if it relates to my indie rock theme.


I decided to leave my designs out in the graphic design space so anyone could give me feedback. I asked for people to pick two they liked the most and if they wanted leave some comments. This is because I can only submit 4 card designs and I have 8.


The top most voted for cards were:
  • Blur - Girls and Boys
  • The White Stripes - 7 Nation Army
  • Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
  • Oasis - Half the world away
  • The Stone Roses - I am the resurrection
When creating my cards I have been having similar feedback that I will need to work on,
  • They don't have a particular aesthetic theme, perhaps try to create a colour scheme to boring them together as a collective.
  • Oddly. I think there is a particular there to them. I can't tell whether to not its appropriate theme, but it has one and work collectively.
  • Feels a little cartoon like, maybe try another style, as I don't feel it represents the songs. The ideas however are good! Explore different type also.
  • Too childish of an art direction Research the bands more, get more relevant imagery. choose a target audience.
Although I think the illustrations are fun and show my ideas well they do not show the indie theme well therefore I need to experiment with different styles but with the same drawings.
