What do you guys think? What could I do to make them better?

Nice covers, but I do believe that you used the dream sequence Jason from part 5 ( end of movie in the hospital room with Tommy ) on the back of your Final Chapter cover. Other than that, they look good. I have been messing around with some Friday covers as well.

I think the front and back covers don't need to change at all - just the spines need to be slimmer for seasons 2-4 and have matching font sizes for the titles.

I've actually been working on some Breaking Bad covers for awhile. I just haven't completely decided how to do the spines. I like the pictures of Walt on the spines for seasons 1-3, but then the close-ups on the final seasons make the set seem inconsistent. I also plan on putting both halves of season 5 in 1 case, so I'll probably just use the cover for the first half (with Walt sitting by all of the money).

You should make it so that when the spines are lined up properly it forms some sort of image, like Heisenberg or that bee symbol

I've never really been a fan of spine-spanning artwork. It never seems to line up quite right.

I will try something too. I would like to keep the two halves of Season 5 separate since they were shown a year apart and have their own season poster art.

Here are my spines so far. I think what I'll try doing is moving the logo and "The Complete XXXX Season" text down a bit and putting a picture of a different character above them on each one. Then I'll make it so that the horizon lines up on the first 3 covers.

Lava_Lander · 12-15-2013, 12:46 PM

Good so far. My biggest issue with the retail artwork is that the logos are inconsistent in both size and position. Are you making them to fit the wider, 3-disc cases?

If you do combine Season 5 and The Final Season, though, I'd request that you also create a split cover set too for those of us not combining them.

DVD cover question, not BluRay -- does anyone have Albert Brooks' comedy "Defending Your Life" cover art? It was one of those cardboard digiboxes in the DVD days, but I need an insert version. I'd long ago thrown away the box, but, it's a favorite film with no sign of ever being on BluRay so I'd like to restore it to a proper DVD case.

I'm making them to fit standard-sized cases. I thought about making them for the wider cases, but I don't think I can find a 2-disc case (for the first season) the same width. I'll probably do one for the final season for those who want it; it seems simple enough to put together.

I would second the request for separate covers for the two halves of Season 5. The spines of the first season and the two halves of Season 5 already line pretty well. I would not even bother touching them. The spines for seasons 2-4 just need to be slimmed down to the standard case dimensions and the text and logos rearranged to line them up with the rest.
