Heavy Bass Development of ideas

I have brought the textures, the Drawings, the hand made and the still life elements together to create the images above. I found that the heavy bass magazine cover and text has came together and is developing in the way that I wanted it to and is making a move in the right direction, to continue on this, I believe that  I need to bring the artist Back into the foreground as He seems to be lost in the process of creating this urban type of design. The magazine is about the artists' new album and the success it has had, I believe that the best way to make this better is to bring these elements together in a way that they work, however not to lose the main objective of the design brief. As the next stage is to be putting the elements together to create the final design, I will be looking at how to create these elements so that they work with  the typography and other forms of texts that will be outlaid on the Page.
