^ Where do you even get the Despecialized version from?

Thank you, Nissen. That means a lot coming from you, you've done a lot of really amazing work.

If you have to ask...

To be serious, although LucasFilm hasn't made a great effort to shut down the Despecialized project, it is still an unauthorized use of copyrighted material, hence, not going to be found on any "legitimate" sites. Here is a forum post from Originaltrilogy.com that will tell you about it...

BTW, this is the only version I can watch now, and has been for a while.

#30 - Beauty and the Beast

#31 - Aladdin (I will complete it when a US release is announced and I have the correct specs)

That's some exquisite artwork, I especially like TLM and Aladdin!

The Little Mermaid is stunning, awesome work.

I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to share these at this time.

If your ever allowed to share these let us know, these are great!!

deepbreathsanddeath · 04-06-2014, 04:10 PM

Did someone mention recently that they wanted to make custom covers for each season of the twilight zone? Because if they looked good, I would definitely pay for that.

What does this even mean... My "client" has generously asked that these be made available to forum members.

These custom Blu-ray covers reflect the specs of the AVCHD versions.
My client has generously asked that these be made available to forum members, so I'll be accepting PMs for them.

Whoever commissioned him to make the covers asked him to share the actual covers themselves for download.

Nissen:

Gorgeous SW Despecialized covers. Love the use of the original art on the back of each, too. Just really nicely done.

RebelPrince1986 · 04-07-2014, 05:06 AM

Getting closer...

#25 - The Black Cauldron (Will fill in the blanks when they are available)

#26 - The Great Mouse Detective

My "clients" are the people who pay me to make covers for them. Some of these "clients" then "generously" (meaning for free) elect to share the end product with "forum members" (i.e. you).

Please excuse a non native-English-speaker for any and all transgressions against your fine language in my original post.

... and please use spoiler tags when quoting an image post.

I agree, they look great, however...

Doesn't make sense to use the Special Edition artworks for the "un-special" editions.

One would think the client would want to use the original poster art.

On a personal note I didn't like the SE posters by Struzan. Just a collage of previous publicity stills.

Had my Mission: Impossible collection and Battlestar Galactica covers printed up right by Metrock. Much better than my inkjet at home.

bemaed · 04-08-2014, 12:09 AM

Nissen- Is there any way I could get ahold of your (amazing) Terror in the Aisles cover? I picked up the Halloween II disc tonight with thoughts of your cover in my head. I'd love to see it on my shelf!

What kind of printer does Metrock use? Those look beautiful.
