Just ain't budging. I've managed to pop three but crack one.

EDIT: my brother has magic hands. He cracked Babylon A.D.'s plastic frame but is now an expert.

Other problem is that my printer isn't printing. What the hell is going on.

Damn, most of the inside artwork presented in this topic look 10 times better than the outside artwork of many Steelbooks

Great work!

Thanks looks easy enough when some else does it

Now where's YOUR video showing us how you put your lovely artwork together from scratch??

This is by far the best tool I have found for separating a SteelBook:

It's an orange peeler. Use the sharp wedge end to pop off the cover at the corner; and since it is platic, there is very little risk of damage.

Your welcome Phil.

Kynch · 09-12-2010, 12:03 AM

I'm done with Babylon A.D., I'll post all the ones I've made once I'm done, should be in about 20 mins.

Blu-Boy in BKK · 09-12-2010, 12:13 AM

I prefer to use 2 separate artworks for my interiors. In a black frame

Green Zone: Australia

Minority Report: UK

Saving Private Ryan: Germany

Battlestar Galactica The Plan: UK

Fight Club: Germany

RockNRolla: Germany

Merci.
Tu es partout sur tous les forums toi.

In English: Thank you, thanks to your tips that you gave me on a French forum.

Okay, finally done printing, cutting and replacing the panels. Some of these pictures are taken from TMDb (thanks vdevil) and others are ones I download off other websites and customised, added the logos in some cases:

Babylon A.D. (France)

Minority Report (France)

Terminator 2 (UK)

X-Men Origins: Wolverine (France)

Inglourious Basterds (France)

Fight Club (Germany)

Very nice.

Here are my 2 last changes, but sadly I dont have a colourfull printer.

Time to find a friend with one.

Well, I guess not that bad considering its black and white, certainly better that plain nothing.

Pure class in black and white.

kaliraver · 09-12-2010, 01:36 AM

To those that are printing your own inside artwork, what type of paper are you using?

I agree, the black and white gives them an entirely different feel to them (at least from the photos). The silver artworkless spine also blends in with the photo better when it's black and white. I'd leave 'em just like that for now. You can always swap them out when you get a color printer.

Kynch, I love what you did to every single one of yours, especially the IB and Fight Club. Hell, I like vdevil's, blu-boy's, and maxbond's versions as well.

That is it. I've been wanting to do this for quite some time, as well as thin down some jumbos, and this is making me want to do them even more now. I think I might actually start to prefer blank insides for SteelBooks. This way, you can add artwork you want.

Oh, and try and do this with an Ironpack! LOL!

SteelBooks ROCK!

GreatGreg · 09-12-2010, 01:58 AM

Great job, people.

I think I actually like the black and white ones the best as they are more subtle and less distracting.

jstn · 09-12-2010, 01:58 AM

Stunning artwork maxbond, I especially love your choice for Psycho:

Love all these, except SPR! I think it's a beautiful picture, but I would have chosen something else. But, they are all fantastic! My hat's off to you!

Wow, never thought black and white could have looked good too.
Thanks guys.

Thank you Jstn and World War Blu.
And to answer to the question asked by Kaliraver , I print my artworks with glossy photo papers.

And thanks again to Vdevil who gave me this idea by showing his works.

Here's my artwork for "No country for old men"
