The blood on the kid looks really cheesy, but the rest is nice.

needs more work into the image/s your eye is instantly drawn to the boy, but not for the right reason.. because you can tell he is just 'sat' on a seperate layer abvoe the soldiers image.
i think youve worked on the feet so he joins the image there, but the rest of him needs that sort of attention too.
hope it helps

yeh, I really like the image.. captive.
I think you should retouch the kid to for better integration like pixelfrog said-- maybe more contrast and his shadow blurred.
apart of it, excellent work.

I like the cover.The image of the kid is really disturbing. The only thing that bothers me is the diference in angle of the two pictures. It's like the soldiers are not seeing the "bloody kid" (and I'm not British :-) It's like he doesn't belong there, but I like the concept.
Do you have to pay royalties for the use of the soldiers's picture?
Where did you get it from?

actually that'd be one other little minor comment would be the top of the kid's head looks like it needs to be slightly more integrated into the back photo.
:P

ah, yes. thanks.

thanks. where does the text look better?
those are seperate images. the kid pic was taken by a friend of mine. and the other pic (with the soldiers) is a famous pic from WWII.

oh and i think I like the band name/title right in the middle, it's very strong typography and moving it up top more kind of lessens the impact of it, so my vote goes for middle.
:P

Love it! disturbing, but that's what I love about it. where'd you get the kick ass photography for that?
:P
