What a 180! Beauty! I'll dig through the posts for your blog for other uploads. Great work!

You might be thinking of mine. It's available at euphoricfx.org. (So is his, but I just checked and it's definitely the "Indiana Jones and...")

I originally did use "Raiders of the Lost Ark" on the spine, but there was so much protest that it didn't match the "Indiana Jones and the..." spines for the other movies that I made the change so they could sit together on a shelf.

#41 of 53. The Little Mermaid.

As much as I love the artwork for both versions of The Little Mermaid, I'm leaning towards the first one as my favorite. I think the cover art used in the second is just a bit - busy for me, really. Not your treatment of it, just the art itself. (Sometimes I'm easily visually overstimulated, and all that detail and texture... woah.)

Regardless, I'm really enjoying your work on this thread. Thanks for helping bring some true class back into our favorite Disney films!

Thanks!

I'm not particularly a fan of the art on the 2D cover either, but I wanted to offer a version that was similar to The Lion King's 2D version for those who liked it.

I'll personally be using the 3D version.

Can anyone print me some cover art, willing to pay

Thomas Guycott · 08-27-2013, 05:24 AM

Recently finished my cover for the American remake of The Ring:

I'm probably the only person on the forum who hates the BD's lenticular slipcase, but how couldn't I when the original poster is such a fantastic image?

Aesthetically I aimed for a modern/mid-90s VHS/DVD look on the back. I thought it would work better to go with something more contemporary than making up a vintage 80s look which might clash with the movie's own style.

Halfway through making this cover I switched from my previous method of creating and rasterizing text in separate windows to editing text directly in the project window, because Photoshop kept giving me cropping issues with the former. I know that sounds like a simple thing to you PS vets, but I stubbornly stuck to my guns since I thought it gave me more precise control. Now it's so much easier: text used to be the most time consuming part for my covers.

Hi guys

Im trying to find a printable cover art for the 2010 Nightmare on Elm Street. I tried using the search function for the site, but turns out I am awful at it. My 3 year old just tore up the cover art because she said there was a scary ghost on it.

Is there a place/way to print original cover art?

I like to use semi-gloss brochure paper.

RipleyLV426 · 08-27-2013, 01:53 PM

Where do you all get the spec/logo/studio images for the lower portion of the back coverart? I know studios tend to have their own "look" and layout.

Have you looked at the art of ariel collection?

You could make amazing covers from those.

RipleyLV426 · 08-27-2013, 09:51 PM

Though I didn't know how to get all the corporate logo looking stuff to make it really legit looking...I'm still very happy with this...

I usually just google it and try to find a hi-resolution image of a logo. Sometimes, though, I just end up re-drawing it.

Here are some Studio Templates for Photoshop. They have all of the legal text and logos that are on the back of Blu-ray covers.

Awesome! Thanks so much! Is there a way to edit the specs though, audio, video, running time etc

Illest Villain · 08-30-2013, 06:25 PM

Most of them should include the fonts needed to edit the info
