Custom Cover Art Thread

[jordy475]

Anyone know of a program that would generate an accurate/readable bar code to put on a custom cover if I just typed in the numbers located on the original cover, would prefer not to scan.

[UncleBob]

Has anyone created a decent Terminator or T2 design that could be used for a slipcover?

[jordy475]

Here is a Boogie nights criterion I made for my personal collection please note that I made the credits to include the John Holmes Exhausted Documentary as a bonus disc. I am making criterion covers for my movies that at one point were a criterion release, hence the number I chose for boogie nights was the disc number for the Laser disc. If any one wants this please shoot me a PM, I may alter for a non John Holmes documentary if there is enough interest.

a couple of new ones from resident artist Drrnharr! PQ is low since I used my cellphone camera for the picks.

Wow...that was fast. I only finished my "Jewel of the Nile" cover last night.

I wasn't as happy with the "Jewel of the Nile" cover as the "Romancing the Stone" cover because the artwork just wasn't there. I also had to reengineer the "Jewel of the Nile" TT from the theatrical poster since I could not find a pre-prepared one anywhere.

I ended up with a 4-layered PSD file with "The", "Jewel", "of the", and "Nile" all on separate layers. The hardest part was working the swirl of "Nile" to create the sections that were obscured in the theatrical release poster.

I spotted it on custommaniac's this morning and downloaded both. I wondered how much of a challenge it must had been to do the TT's for both, especially Jewel and thinking of it being somewhat similar to when you put together Octopussy. But they look good to me. BTW since you seem to enjoy putting together film series, would you consider doing the Rocky films and or Die Hard?

[DrrnHarr]

Up on customanaics. Version 1:

Literally seconds after I uploaded it, someone had downloaded it.

No plans for "Rocky" or "Die Hard" - yet.

and an alternate version for those who prefer original posters....this utilizes the UK Quad.

Been a little bit, but I wanted to share this one. I'm pretty proud of it since I created it from scratch. Check my sig for password.

Does anyone have a Haywire cover? I bought the movie at Blockbuster (they are having a buy 1 get 1 free sale) and I didn't notice until I got home that the cover was torn.

Wow, this is really cool! Where did you get the art for the cover? Well done. It would be cool if you did a whole series of these minimalist covers for the Bond films, or at least for the Daniel Craig ones. Well done!

Liked the simplicity of the idea, just his hands, a gun, some poker chips and a small glimpse of the collar of his shirt.

This is gorgeous. If you did similar art for all three Daniel Craig Bond films, I would happily obtain this art from you and have slipcovers made so they can match on my shelf. If you decide to do that, please let me know. I'd be first in line.

So, I'm attempting to make a custom Blu-Ray to fit all three of the newer Death Race films but I noticed a huge lack of high res media for it that suits my needs. I figure I'll just make my own then and I insert my Blu-Ray into my computer and low and behold I can't take screenshots to help me out... how ridiculous.

Can someone lend me a hand here? How does one make these lovely covers if you can't get lovely images?

I've been wondering where you can get hi-res images for things like this too... I'm sure it's been asked before but I didn't see it in the OP and googling only leads me to stuff where you have to pay to DL hi-res images...

Awesome covers.

Some blu rays have horrible artwork covers with no thought in them. The slip covers are even worse (I can not believe some people collect that crap). I have to see the same stupid art cover twice. Instead of wasting money on slipcovers or steel covers hire some good artists.

It's great.

I would just remove the barcode, because I think it looks weird where you placed it.
Apart from that, it's great!!!

Its great for what it is, but its selection is a little sparse. Only one of the James Bond movies is covered (2006s "Casino Royale") and for the pre 1990s, the collection is practically non-existent with just a handful for some years and other years not even represented.

You need credits to buy pictures but http://www.moviepicturedb.com has a much stronger collection.
