Justanothercrow421 108 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 @heidl Would you be willing to do a color swap for the first set of LOTR trilogy complete scores to match the original DVD color schemes? Fellowship: green Towers: red King: blue Godzilla (MonsterVerse Soundtrack set) Waxwork Records recently released Tom Holkenborg's score to Godzilla vs. Kong. I had hoped they would make the release match the wonderful art direction of their release of Godzilla: King of the Monsters. Alas, studio interference led to a rather boring mix of promotional/film photography. To get some cohesion (at least in my digital collection), I mocked up some covers using Christopher Shy's awesome artwork, which Waxwork had used in the aforementioned release. NOTE: The artwork for KOTM is only included to show how the set looks together and has not been remade by me.

Fellowship: green Towers: red King: blue I'm willing but you have to know that the elvish runes and the map are baked into the image. So if you don't give a damn about the map in the background, I can just change the film title and give it a go. Or you're willing to wait a little longer? Because since the covers above are based on the original Vinyl sleeves, I'm currently working on alternate versions which will be assembled from individual graphic assets.

I won't repost them here since I think someone already did it earlier on this thread.

I know we disagree on this, but I still greatly prefer your original excellent Anna and the King cover, because it didn't rely on colorizing an image and I still notice too many artifacts of that on this one, even though you did an impressive job of it (plus as you know I find the image of the king in the background weirdly ominous, lol). So I hope you won't mind my sharing your original/alternate cover here too in this thread, for those who might share my preference: On 09/10/2022 at 11:33 AM, Tallguy said: I always hated that cover of Blue Max.

Your workflow is almost a kind of reverse engineering. I've done this on many of my tribute covers as well, and I have to say it's really one of the best ways to learn new techniques. Do you mind recommending me a good upscale tool for Photoshop? Or did you mean the built-in resizer? I regularly use letsenhance.ai, but you never know beforehand what you're gonna get. A good Photoshop plugin would certainly be more helpful. Also, nice to meet a fellow designer who removes the GettyImages watermark by hand as well.

Popular Post SonicAdventure 10 Posted October 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 24, 2022 And while I'm at it, I can also post other covers I did. For those that are interested. I didn't like the Varese cover for the Presumed Innocent Deluxe so I made my own based on the negative space poster (in both variants, white and grey). Regarding the last cover, I saw a cover on the FSM forum where I liked the concept but not the execution And for Minority Report. The cover for the LLL was done by Jim Titus who usually is a dependable artist. But in this case he chose to use the movies' title in squeezed form - and I hate squeezed fonts like the very next man, it just looks so '90s. Also, his cover was a bit too dark for my taste. So I made my own, also adding a variant based on the original OST cover. Here are some A.I. covers. The first are based on the official poster design, the third is based on the picture Jim Titus used for the LLL but I wanted to see my own take on it. The last is my own idea where I took an image from the movie and used a simple filter to create blocks of glass (you know, those glass walls that were all the rage in the '90s). This design is quite old, I think I did it 10 years ago or so though this one was recently tweaked by me.
