It took me a while to complete this - but I've created custom art for all 57 of the Walt Disney Animation Studios Feature Films. I won't be posting the full resolution images here (or distributing) - I just wanted to show off the work I've done. My goal was to create a seamless look across the titles and to create uniformity. The releases are printed for use in cases with extra wide spines and feature full color textless artwork on the inside of the case as well. (Not shown Here.) The cases are clear and can stack up to 3 discs on each hub for a total of 6 discs, so each film I have sometimes will have multiple releases/versions of the same film housed inside.

Here's an updated version that is complete and up to date with Frozen II and Fantasia 2000 added. I also completed matching covers for the live action remakes/sequels to the animated films that have full HD/3D/4K media releases on Home Video. (Hopefully the 90's 101 Dalmatians and Jungle Book will see the light of day on Home Video eventually.)

Here is a photo of how they sit on the shelf...


Here is a photo of them spread out on the floor - it's a large collection so it was a bit hard to take a picture of all of them at the same time.
The color is a little off in the photo - they look a bit more vibrant in person.

Those are really nice Disney covers. It almost makes a person want to discard all their slipcovers.

Will you be doing covers for the Pixar movies and Live-Action/Animated features (eg. So Dear to My Heart, Song of the South, Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Pete's Dragon, etc.)

If desirable, please post a photograph with all of these printed and put in cases on your shelf.

I actually have already completed all the Marvel titles and all of the Pixar Titles. I've posted those in different threads but I'll make a seperate post under this one with those in a few moments.

I also have completed several 3D Live Action Disney titles, but haven't done any of the 2D only Live Action Disney Films. I will likely post those once they are completed at a later time.

I added a photo of the Disney Animated Films sitting together on the shelf at the end of the post as requested.

Here is a photo of my custom Marvel cases sitting together on the shelf.
I made custom cases for all of the Marvel films over the past couple of weeks. I wanted to combine the 2D/3D and 4K versions that I have for these together and have everything be uniform regardless of the studio. I decided it would look cool if all of the spines lined up together to make the Endgame "dissolving A" version so that's what I went with.



I've temporarily put the individual covers below in spoilers as most of my links are broken.
I'll repost the covers again soon.

My sentimens exactly!

Now here’s hoping for the non-3D UHD covers so I can get rid of those godawful UHD covers

Here is another retro cover, this time for the Tom Hanks comedy 'Bachelor Party'

I'd like to get into having a couple of custom covers, but I have no idea what I'm doing. How should I print and cut these? Use one of those cutters you see in school art class??

What kind of printing paper should I purchase?

I purchased a cutting board from Amazon and print out in high brightness paper that is fairly heavy weight and print on a high-res laser color printer.

To print I recommend undercover10.

To cut I recommend a gold tipped xacto knife, cutting board, and metal edged ruler.

For paper there is really only one choice, HP Brochure paper. Glossy on both sides and similar in weight to the real product resulting in a retail looking and feeling finish.

Someone asked me to post the low-res Marvel Covers instead of just the photos of them on the shelf. So I've added them to the Marvel post above.

[Sowhatwhocaresyo]

and I've been working like a dog on these Criterion covers

I particularly like the "Hard Day's Night" cover that uses the original vinyl album art. I even liked it 5 years ago when I made this...
