Hmmmmm,don't know how I missed this??

Anyway - excellent cover and in my opinion this is the BEST Bond poster ever, I have the original British quad in storage. One day it will get mounted and framed but at almost £200 it's an expensive indulgence.

Well done Nissen.

Here's the last Bond for a couple of days. I'm sure no one will mind :-)

Tomorrow Never Dies.

If lack of replies is what you mean then well that's not so bad. Almost nobody replies to my covers in here, but that's okay because I make them for myself. It's just a bonus if others want to use them.

No...the negativity has come in the form of PMs.

me.... ?

Since I have made some covers myself and know how difficult this is to make a good cover I never criticizes anyone.

Anyone do requests that don't charge $20 usd???

F*ck'em...most likely a bunch of "children" who cannot appreciate the efforts and hard work that goes into making these custom covers. You have already made three variations on these Bond customs all of which are featured on customaniacs and even made alternates of the alternates by request. I know I speak for the majority of us on these threads that your creations are much appreciated and hope you will find it in your time to allow us to have copies of them by way of personal emails and or Euphoricfx or R1DB.com. However I can understand your position and even Nissen's when people cannot ask properly for a simple request. Come on folks, a little thank you goes along way......

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]

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.

[alphadec]

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]

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.
