on the rightmost vinyl cover, there is a white area that butts right up to the cover art.
2022-10-23 29619, 2022

it makes the cover art look... bad.
2022-10-23 29631, 2022

Personally I think cutting a bit of the corners off the cover just makes it more realistic but
2022-10-23 29629, 2022

2022-10-23 29640, 2022

I think in general, I need to zoom each of these covers out a bit to ensure that there no artifacts.

FWIW, I think the artifacts are because of the little bit of perspective deformation tapering the squares
2022-10-23 29652, 2022
21:13 PM
mayhem
indeed they are.
2022-10-23 29603, 2022

but that is best I can do. unless we go as far as actually warping the image the same amount as the perspective shift...

3d transforms are not fun.

2022-10-23 29632, 2022

we could fill album rect with that color, then render the cover over the background. it would appear that there are stripes of (possibly) complementary colors on the sides (or top/bottom). that would fix the problem and make the stripes appear as if intended.
