My favourite Queen album cover is the Made in Heaven one because it puts a fitting end to the greatest band. And I also like the uniqueness? of the Miracle cover.

Yea News Of The World is good. ANATO is nice aswell. ADATR isn't as nice as ANATO's. AKOM is good aswell.
A tie between ANATO...for it's definitive artwork that would become Queen's crest and symbol...
..and Made In Heaven...for it's meaningful, and sublime beauty as a postscript to what was..and still it. Majestic and subtle at the same time, says it all about who Queen are, not only to us the fans, but to the band members...to one another and how they felt about one another..and Freddie.

No, the cover of Queen (Queen I, if you will) isnt painted. Read the extensive Queen bio on this site (it's excellent) and I believe it'll explain it for you.
"Queen were involved in every aspect of the album. The back cover features a collage of photos. The band invited their friends around to Freddie's flat to pick out the best photo's from the one they had. After picking out the best ones, Freddie and Brian spent weeks gluing them all together.
A photographer friend of theirs, Doug Puddifoot who had taken many on their early shots helped them with the collage as well as the album cover. The cover consisted of a picture of Freddie on stage, backed with two spotlights. The purple effect was given by covering the camera lens with some plastic. "

I like all the Queen covers cos they show the varying fashions and ideals of Queens career.

Queen II is the most iconic...That's my favourite along with A Night At The Opera & A Day At The Races. Innuendo is good too...actually so is GH3.
Queen 2 and SHA are my favorites, although, I never really thought about it till now!
