Construction - Artist Name

For the name of the artist on my Front Cover, I wanted it to sound cool and also have a modern sound to it. So I named my artist: Kudos. I liked this name as it sounded good, and kudos is something that shows how much respect you have. Literally, to gain kudos is to gain respect and recognition, and is derived from modern colloquialism. I already knew what kind of font I wanted for the name, something like what Q magazine had in their 25th Anniversary Edition. So I searched for a font on dafont.com that was similar to this, and I found this: Christopherhand

 I also wanted a tagline to go with the name, so I came up with this:
 I had the text white because I knew that it would blend in with the black on my artist's shirt and be difficult to see, so I put it over the name which made it clear and visible

 Using the same font as the name, I then had to decide where to put it on my Front Cover:
I decided to put it over some of my artist's face so as to keep it out of the way of the other things I was yet to put on the cover.
