Dagon's Custom Covers
 

I'm working on a cover for The Last Samurai since I don't like the poster art WB is planning to use for the front.

I'm going with a deep red "rice paper" background texture and gold overtones, similar to some old Japanese art I've seen.

Thoughts or opinions?

Also, I've opened up a personal web-site for a select few of my custom covers. The site also features a forum, DVD Review section, other download links aside from covers, and more. I'm also working on numerous means to offset bandwidth cost so I will be able to host other covers from the userbase. Drop in and take a look around.

Instead of that 3rd (!) pic of Tom Cruise underneath the UPC code you could put Ken Watanabe. He is the actor that got an Oscar-nomination. ;)

Revision
 

Since it appears WB will be using that same image of Cruise I'm using on the front, I had to take a trip down Revision Road. This is what I ended up with:

see Rossi, no Cruise under UPC :D

Much better...

Re: Much Better
 

Thanks Vong. I'm still not sure of the text layout on the back, but I won't know for certain how much space I have to use until I get the credits typed out and add the "extra info" to the legal text.

I LOVE the second one you made. It has more of a Historical "moving" feeling than the first one. Dont get me wring, the first one is great also, its just something about the second one that hit me in the face. Keep em comin!

:up:

Any updates, Dagon? (special features list)

Sorry no recent updates, I've been busy with family and the web site.

Second one looks great. My only complaint is that the spine looks a bit odd. Other than that, good work!

That second one looks great. Great job Dagon.
