Here are my first attempt at custom covers, based upon the old CBS FOX video design.

Predator:


let me know what you all think, or if you have any suggestions.

I hate most studio BD covers and decided to make one the way I think they should look. This custom BD cover was inspired by the VHS cover from way back, I changed some things, but it still resembles the original cover. If you'd like a copy of one of these,... just PM me and let me know if you want style A, B or C.
I am also working on the other custom BD covers for the rest of the Friday the 13th films.

These are simply FANTASTIC! I've seen other examples of these online that people have created as well. I Love the VHS inspired covers. I'm not going to PM you now, but I'd LOVE to get the Full Set whenever you finish if possible. Be sure to update the thread on your work so I can follow along please!

Thanks for the kind words. I will be starting on another Friday the 13th custom cover at some point tonight, I will keep this thread updated with each one I finish. Considering that This was my very 1st custom BD cover that I ever made, I thought I did a really good job. haha (not to sound cocky)
I done better than I even expected. I figure I'll be able to do a second one a little faster since I'm getting familiar with this sort of thing. btw, what is your favorite Friday the 13th? (off topic somewhat I know, but still I'd like to know.)

Just a quick crazy question from a newbie: how do you generate the 3D previews for the covers? Is there some way to do it in Photoshop?

Yeah if that's really your first attempt at a cover I'd say you did exceptionally well! I'm looking forward to seeing the rest for sure. As for my favorite Friday film... it's a Toss Up between parts 4, or 7. It changes depending on the day, but I probably lean more towards Part 7 then 4 most days.

There's a program that most people use that does it. I don't remember the name at the moment, but I'm sure someone else can chime in. It's not photoshop though as far as I'm aware.

It is called Imandix Cover Pro.

That's it, thanks! W00t Woot! That looks fantastic! I've been checking to see if it was available yet every few hours since reading your post it was all done the other day! I just finished setting up all the other releases tonight and have them grouped at the moment. All of them are simply amazing. I hope to do some write-ups shortly along with photos in your master thread.

Thank you for your promt response.

Here's my cover for 'The Good, The Bad & The Ugly'

[steev210]

I made a separate custom cover for Deep Rising that was released as a double feature with The Puppet Masters. If you would like a copy of the full high resolution file, PM me. The resolution in the file below is significantly reduced.

Cheers!
Steve

I think we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Fantastic Work on this plus Predator. I'm a sucker for nostalgia and I remember those CBS FOX VHS covers very well. I still have the Star Wars Trilogy from CBS FOX.

The studio cover has two very large heads kissing above the theater. Nothing wrong with kissing, but...



This one and one that is similar to the studio cover are available at EuphoricFX.org.
