Masthead decisons

When creating my masthead, I had creaed a brand for my magazine, making this the first letter of the masthead of my magaizne. This brand follows through the rest of the magazine showing which magazine the reader will be reading and sticking to the norms of a typical magaizne. At first I made my masthead quite bold, but without an outline around the lettering. As showing in picture 2, i adjusted this by increasing the swatches and making the lettering bolder, standing out to the reader more sharply. I hav chosen to go with masthead 2 with my final masthead to be featured on my magazine.
