Custom Cover Art Thread

[xradman]

A friend of mine, Jang (장꿀로드땡규) on the DVD Prime Forum (Korean Blu-ray forum) has made a set of 8 individual covers for the Star Wars Blu-ray. They include covers for each of the 6 theatrical episodes (both outside and inside covers) and additional covers for the Archives (meant for a 2 disc case) and Documentaries and Spooofs. I have obtained permission from him to link the covers for everyone here on Blu-ray.com.

I also did a secondary set using the same fronts and backs and adding a "spanning spine" to the series--I'm not personally a fan of spanning spines, but they were requested so I tried to fit it in. I think it worked.

You may find all of these at Euphoricfx.org.

Imrahil, let me just congratulate you on a job well done. The attention to detail is staggering. I'm a Star Trek fan too. I still have all the separate releases on DVD from the early 00's. And the first season on HD DVD, and the new BD sets, of course.

Here is my WIP for From Russia With Love, may have gone a bit crazy. What do you guys think?

I suggest Blu Ray.com should have a custom cover contest

Some recent work:

DrrnHarr, love your Bond covers. I am sure I seen a cover for Never Say Never Again but was wondering if you planned to do one for the 1960?s Casino Royale?

Can someone PLEASE tell me what is wrong with 9covers.com? When I go there I get a white background with some of the links from the site. There is a lot of open space and it looks weird. Also, every time I try to click one of the links it gives me a 403 permission denied. I can't login or logout or anything. Someone please help!

It's working fine over here. Try clearing your cookies and or browser cache/temp internet files. Or, try using a different browser, see if it's still messed up.

I enjoy them for what they are; an example of a different aesthetic to ours.

They look just like my HK bootlegs of ST DS9 and some of the Star Wars boots from China. The colourful nebula and cluttered photocollages are typical. Often with multicoloured text as well.

Here's a pic of my bootlegs bought from eBay about ten years ago. See the resemblance?:


Lately, I've come to realize that our taste is highly influenced by our culture. The tonal characteristics of traditional Japanese music sounds "off" to western ears, for example. The same thing applies to aesthetics.

That poster for You Only Live Twice is excellent. I haven't seen that one before.

It's bothered me for some time, but the colours for Live and Let Die seem too hot. I remember when this was broadcast on the Beeb (or was it Channel4) back in the eighties, they used that poster as a bumper during commercial breaks. I tell you, the nostalgia factor on these posters is high for old time fans like ourselves. You young pups don't know what you're missing.

the logos on the front don't apear right either Star Wars for example there is something wrong with the edges it may be the compression or something.

All the Roger Moore 007 movies are done and the only Sean Connery flick still in WIP is "Goldfinger". Imrahil had some concerns (over at EuphoricFX) regarding the cover for "Goldfinger" so once those are addressed then all the Connery flicks will be done.

Which will leave 1 Timothy Dalton movie, 4 Pierce Brosnan, 2 Daniel Craig and 1 Peter Sellers.

In the 1980s ITV owned the rights to all the 007 movies. All except "Never Say Never Again" which BBC held the rights to.

Leslie Halliwell was the movie buyer for ITV back then and he often said that the Beeb had been given first dibs on the 007 series but they (the BBC) thought the James Bond movies were beneath them and that nobody would want to watch them on TV.

The BBC had learned the error in that thinking and so snapped up "Never Say Never Again"

I agree about the nostalgia factor regarding the poster art. That was one of the factors for me in working the 007 custom covers.

I feel dumb, can anyone help me figure out how to make these print out at the correct size?
