I certainly thought that the clean metal look didn't suit the style of the
books, it's
supposed to be a world where the world was torn apart and people are scavenging
supplies
from the remains of the old world, as a result I don't think there would be
much freshly
forged steel around. Just my opinion.
The yellow outline was just a tester for the font, I could probably find a way
to emboss
it if required. The "Highway Holocaust" font was another I just grabbed off my
system.
I agree that it's not as readable, but didn't want to invest much time in
trying to find
a replacement just for the mockup. I wasn't too keen on the font used on the
text in the
original, it just shouted "The A-Team" ;)
If you think that an updated mockup, with the section allocated for the page
number, the
background from the second version, an embossed Freeway Warrior and a better
font for the
book would be worth doing, then I could try and create something like that.
