No...not you alphadec

The customs have been criticized in the form of PMs to my Customaniacs account.

I'm done with it though - I did the covers for myself so if others don't want them or like them that's entirely up to them and I will stop sharing them. I printed all mine off this weekend so it makes no difference to me.

Well..the reaction has been a negative one on customaniacs so I'm done with it...I will not be uploading anymore.

If people don't appreciate the work and want this picture changed for this and a different poster on the cover they can do it themselves or commission Nissen to make the change.

I'm sorry you have gotten negativity over your covers.. I can't imagine people not liking them, or even appreciate the time you spent putting them together. I personally downloaded and printed all of your original gold series covers over at Customaniacs. I couldn't be happier. They look amazing on my shelf. I'm hoping that you will still create a cover for Skyfall, someday. There are plenty of us that really enjoy your covers. Thank you for all your hard work!

Can't understand the negativity on these covers. They look great to me, way better than the official ones.

Wow!!!! I love the water-skiing version but that gets over-used. I'm really happy to see the Tina and Eddie version.
Can't wait to see the end product.

Can't wait for Jaws on Blu, and Jaws 2 too.

As eagle-eyed people will spot from my avatar - i'm a massive Jaws geek.That's me on the estuary wall from the original Jaws.

my usual choice would be of the theatrical one sheet. But I did not know the WIP image was of the soundtrack. I like that one! Great Job.

bring on Jaws 3-D

mtsanis · 07-23-2012, 04:51 PM

I always loved the original poster art for Pet Sematary, and the original VHS packaging as well, so I've started a blu-ray version of them. Not sure how far I'll go with this. Just seeing if I could do it. Let me know what you think!

Please note: The credits font is not final in any way. Just typing it out as of now.

That's just dumb.

I can see if you ask for help, but if not, and you are posting your hard work, I can so appreciate that.

Please don't be discouraged by the few.

As I said, just seeing your Moonraker piece made me buy the movie and want your cover.

After so much positiv feedback I think I have the final result.

That my good friend is a thing of absolute beauty! When and if Jaws 2 sees a Blu-Ray release, this will proudly sit in my collection with this cover.

Bravo sir! Bravo!

Riddler The Slag · 07-23-2012, 06:38 PM

That being said, has anyone tried to do a custom Jaws without the usual Theatrical poster cover?

I have a few ideas but I am no good with the ol' Photoshop.

Good cover, but Jaws 2 isn't being released in August or anytime soon. Your source is incorrect, Universal have stated that the sequels are nowhere near a Blu release yet.

There was a rumour that Jaws 3 was being released at the same time as Jaws but it's not the case unfortunately.
Jaws 2 is vastly underrated.

But enough of that, don't want to stray off topic too much.

The front art looks shifted to the right instead of being centered, but it could just be the angle.

Also, I'd change the color of the blu-ray logo on the spine, maybe to the blue of the water. And there are Universal logos without the black box around them that would look less clunky on the spine.

That is fixed! on the final version.
