Read below...again. Plus, good things come to those who wait. There are other artists that have created some fantastic TMNT covers. Browse a bit, pm the artist of which the cover belongs to, and wait.

I have looked on google all last night for a decent res cover and this was bt far the best cover I could find as it still had a retro feel to it unlike others I have come across!.

I understand what you mean about asking the artist but I don't know who he is to ask, I assumed it was the guy I PM'd? You mentioned other TMNT covers, on this board? can you point me it the right direction?

If you look on the first page Trean, the OP, posts the latest titles and download link (if there is one). If it's not there, then you'll need to just take the time to look through the previous pages of the thread and find the original artist, then pm them.

Since we don't share other artists work without their permission it's a little hard for me to point you in the right direction, as I'm not sure what page they were posted on. If you join euphoricfx.org you can look there. The site is now free.

Nothing fancy. I've always liked the look of the German covers for these so I decided to make myself a set in that style so to speak. Plus I hate that the US covers don't match at all and the title for SAW 3D sucks. Anyway, it's a work in progress...

That is a sweet looking saw cover. I assume this will be for all 7, right? Has anyone been able to find 7-disc cases for sale yet?

The specs haven't been determined yet. I just guessed on the video and audio based on Fox's recent releases. The lightsaber I will try and look to replace---thanks for pointing that out. As for the Millenium Falcon, I intentionally reversed the image to face that way. I may consider looking for another image of it. Thanks for the input!

I think these are the covers your looking for.

There is a link to the original set in this post:

And links to two sets of alternate covers in this one:

Thank you very much for your help, they were just what I was looking for

I can now print and slip it into a case and I have a great looking home made blu ray.

How do you all cut your custom covers? I no longer have access to one of those single slice paper cutters and was dreading cutting with scissors and not getting a nice clean edge.

Exacto knife and a ruler.

Thanks. I'm doing individual covers for each film. Not sure if they even sell a 7 disc case yet.

So are you doing individuals AND a collection cover? I hope you're doing a collection version as well. We'll need one for when we can get 7-disc cases.

Why not a Star Destroyer since you have the Republic cruisers on the first one? Or a Mon Calamari cruiser if you want it to be a Rebel ship. Or a Nebulon-B frigate, or something.

The Vader head on the spine seems to be creeping onto the front cover too, which will look odd from the front.

@Imrahil2001 I re-edited your suggestions. Hope it works much better!

Here is a Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) cover that I did, I probably will do 3 and 1 also:

I also use a stanley and a metal ruler, just make sure the knife blade is sharp or it will tear the paper!

Nice work on the Sw covers. The prequel cover needs some force lightning though or a lit lightsaber, what's Star Wars with out 'em?

There's a limit to how many you can do at one time as well if you're trying to cut more than one. And don't forget a cutting board I used to use the back of a place mat for the dining table.

Hey everyone, I'm new to this thread. First I want to say thank you to dv8pdx and jordy475 for the custom covers I requested and you gave to me, they are AWESOME!

I'm a pencil artist by hobby (okay I guess, nothing to brag about) but the artwork I see in this thread is absolutely stunning! I've looked through the thread completely a couple times, and found some covers that I was looking for that people posted. Thank you to ALL! I really wish you fellas were designing these professionally, because they truly are better than most original covers that come with the discs!

Keep up the GREAT work everyone! I look forward to seeing all the great work to come!

Finished my Halloween II that matches my custom set. And completed my first entry into a SAW BD series.

I have a DVD cover that I would like to use for a blu-ray of mine but when I try and resize it to the right dimensions it distorts. How can I make it the correct dimensions without distortion? The dimensions/pixels for the cover are 3240x2175 and I would like to make them 3118x1748.

Thanks
