The tagline wording comes from the theatrical poster, but I retyped it using Adobe Garamond font and adding some subtle effects to the text layer including "contour", "outer glow", "stroke" and "drop shadow"

Applied a gradient to the back cover infobox to match the Title Treatment.

So I a leak in my room and one of the casualties was the cover/case for Breaking Bad: The Complete Second Season. Could anyone help me with a replacement replica or a nice custom job? I'd appreciate the help seeing as how Sony couldn't be bothered.

Is there a template out there for HBO releases?

I like simple designs - mostly black and orange for something like this, with an image of Myers on the front (relative to "era").

I'll be happy to pay for your time and effort. Let me know if you're interested. Here are the contents I'm looking for...

Volume 1 (Anchor Bay, Scream Factory)
Disc 1: Halloween
Disc 2: Halloween (TV cut, DVD)
Disc 3: Halloween II
Disc 4: Halloween II (TV cut, DVD)
Disc 5: Halloween III: Season of the Witch
Disc 6: Halloween 4: The Revenge of Michael Myers

Volume 2 (Anchor Bay, Echo Bridge)
Disc 1: Halloween 5: The Return of Michael Myers
Disc 2: Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers
Disc 3: Halloween 666 Producer's Cut (DVD)
Disc 4: Halloween H20
Disc 5: Halloween Resurrection
Disc 6: Halloween: 25 Years of Terror documentary (DVD)

Volume 3 (Sony, Alliance)
Disc 1: Halloween (2007) unrated directors cut
Disc 2: Halloween II (2009) unrated directors cut
Disc 3: Halloween/Halloween II theatrical editions
Disc 4: Michael Lives documentary, plus supplements

Thank you!!

I'm not great at this, but I've done these three for you... hope you like them!

Let me know if they're the sort of thing you're looking for... the size is for a 24mm BD case.

Overall this looks quite good! I think the only thing I would really change is to make the 3 sentence tag line around the sword on the upper left - Instead of placing the tag lines (1) upper left, (2) center and (3) lower right, I would make the font a bit smaller and have it as a horizontal line below the sword in the stone; that way you can clearly see the beautiful pic with the sword in the stone with the tagline in the darker area underneath it.

Have you thought about making the title on the front and the spine have a more "steel-like" appearance (like how the title appears in the movie opening credits)?

Scorpion Soldier · 02-02-2013, 11:02 PM

A bit early, but after making a label concept for Iron Man 3 I couldn't resist making it into a slipcover:

How do you guys like it?

That is friggin nice! Will it be available anywhere soon? It's always nice to see original art used instead of photoshop BS.

SethRex · 02-03-2013, 04:38 AM

Can someone help me a bit? I'm looking for customs for 'Friends with Benefits' and in the case of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, a case for a single disc BD and DVD combo, as I own the discs from Blockbuster.

Done and done! For 1 and 3, please pm me. The second will be finished when announced.

I was hoping someone would make covers to house all of Kino's individual Buster Keaton releases in a single box similar to the one they released at the end of last year. I didn't find any custom covers on the web and decided to try making my own covers. Granted they are amateurish (my photo editing skills are rudimentary at best) but they are no worse at least IMHO than the official ones from Kino. I would appreciate any feedback, good or bad given that this is my first attempt at making my own covers. Please note that I wasn't trying to make these look official by adding the bar code and credits and such.

[Show spoiler]

Also, if anyone has experience printing the outer box covers for multi-disc sets, I would appreciate hearing how you did it.

Thanks,
-D

It's cool but his 2 covers have something that the official artwork is missing (.)(.)
