Very nice! :up::up:

Keep up the freat work John. I like your custom CSF & CHC covers so much that if you make a cover for a movie I don't own I go and buy that movie so I can use your cover & i've actually found a few great films beacuase of that reason.

JJE-187 01-24-03 02:16 PM

John I just noticed House On Haunted Hill Do you plan on making a custom cover using the original poster art of the skeleton?

Dragonslayer 01-24-03 03:48 PM

I'll be interested in it too.

Goody :)

Hey john I asked this just after you posted your Wasp Woman cover but it got lost in the ols thread. Do you have any Posters or other stuff for Attack Of The Giant Leeches?? I have it as a doyble feature with Wasp Woman & would like a cover for it to go inside the Wasp Woman Cover

Dragonslayer 01-27-03 05:47 PM

I like that front cover on "'House on Haunted Hill".

JJE-187 01-31-03 06:46 PM

Yes HoHH looks great.

Dragonslayer 01-31-03 09:15 PM

I've downloaded it & plan to use it. What is the next Sci-Fi &/or Horror cover?

Dragonslayer 01-31-03 10:00 PM

Where do you get these Poster Art books? I've checked my local bookstores, but their inventory is not useful. I'd love to have a resource like that available to me. I plan on buying "20,000 leagues beneath the Sea", & who knows maybe an alternate cover will be needed.

I have a poster art book on crime movies. It is in very good condition. If you are interested in it, email me and I will send it to you.

I love the HOHH cover , I am printing it out now. Thanks

Randy

"Things To Come" looks really nice. How did you get the text on the spine to be 2-color like in the front poster image?

Dragonslayer 02-05-03 04:04 PM


By hand!
I sort of suspected that it was hand done. I was not aware of any graphics app text tool that would do that. Patience has its rewards.

Dragonslayer 02-06-03 11:18 AM

I'm downloading it now.

I think you could do that using a gradient or pattern overlay too. You could create a red-black rectangle and use it as a pattern to overlay over the text layer. Or a gradient, with the blend basically turned off will give the same effect. That of course is in photoshop, don't know how elements handles layers and overlays.

Correct.

I've always liked your work John. The bad thing is I don't have any of these older films on DVD :(

JJE-187 02-06-03 02:08 PM

Hey john I just got alot of your covers from habers & they look fantastic. I did notice 1 little problem with Body Snatchers though, you have the AR listed as 2.35:2 instead of 2.35:1 & I like that little quip about the P&S version, made me :lol: when I seen it

depechemodeone 02-07-03 10:11 AM

John,
Excellent work, I really like the way the Re-Animator one looks :D
If there are some posters you are looking for in particular let me know I should be getting some more books soon.

JJE-187 02-08-03 12:21 AM

John, I can wait until you have time to make an "Official" CHC cover for it, I still have to pay habers for all the covers I recieved from him & there are still alot of covers (& coverserts) I need to get printed.

Music 02-11-03 03:21 PM

:up: :up: :)

The_Greek 02-12-03 07:19 PM

Can't wait to see the War of the Worlds done.

If you start with Photoshop, spend time learning curves. They are probably the most powerful tool, but aren't useful if you don't know what you are doing. They can make a poor scan or photo come to life.

Dragonslayer 02-26-03 01:43 PM

That Karloff poster is very nice. No need to defend yourself about DVD-Rs John, it is no one's business but you own.

gfoots 03-01-03 02:53 PM

Does Sinister Cinema take requests for wanted films. In particular, I'm looking for the second Nero Wolfe Film from 1937 "The League of Frightened Men" it has never been available on video, but apparently some 16 millimeter rental houses used to have it. The first film "Meet Nero Wolfe" from 1936 is available from a similar, although less professional website http://members.tripod.com/classic-movies/ I've made my own cover using original promotional art and some screen shots.

Must be a few more DVD-R owners out there
I'm hoping to join the club this year at some point.

JJE-187 03-04-03 10:24 PM

Goody, I've been hoping for some covers for Earth Vs. The Spider & How To Make A Monster, now if you could do Teenage Caveman & The Day The World Ended then my "Original Creature Features" Collection would look great :)

Randy810 03-12-03 05:14 PM

Very off topic

The Pioneer recorder does it make DVD-R discs that are playable on other DVD players?
I had the Panasonic but returned it because it would not play on my Malata and I had trouble connecting it to my receiver and TV.

I was considering the Pioneer, if it is playable on other players I will probably get it soon.

Thanks

Randy810 03-12-03 06:39 PM

Thanks for the quick reply.

I have 2 Sonys and a Pioneer player also. I did not try the DVD-Rs on those players because I was lazy. I really want the DVD-Rs to
play on the malata because I have it connected to my receiver in the home theatre. I also have a problem with connecting the Panasonic recorder to the TV.

I think I will go look at the Pioneer recorder now that I know what I am looking for.

Thanks

Randy

Randy810 03-13-03 02:37 PM

John
Will the Star Trek cover be available als?

Randy

JJE-187 03-13-03 04:44 PM

I think the Riverdance cover fits in with your other "Horror" titles beautifully :)

Bobban 03-15-03 08:31 AM

No plans on making a custom of Haunting, The: Signature Selection (DTS)? not that its a bad original cover .. would just be funny to see how it turns out. ;)

Dragonslayer 03-21-03 03:17 PM

I'm looking forward to seeing that one.

Dragonslayer 03-22-03 09:21 AM

I agree.

JJE-187 03-29-03 06:51 PM

-thumbsup- they look great. I didn't even know you did The Day The World Ended already, Great job on it too. when will they be available @ dvdgreek?
