Digital Draft

I feel this design is quite good. It follows the convensions of a college magazine and has a primary colour scheme, which is simple but effective. It also includes a barcode, a date and issue number. 

I think the cover lines are good, but could be improved. I think they intrude the main image a little and the font doesn't look very nice. To improve on my final price I would change the font to Arial as it suits better make sure all the cover lines are not intruding the main image. I would  make the masthead slightly bigger. I could also add a "bubble" with a competition inside to attract customers.
