Title: PS1 - Lunar: SSSC, Lunar: EBC, Vagrant Story - NTSC
Post by: Velmeran on June 23, 2008, 01:25:56 PM
I'd like to request 3 covers total, 1 for each of the following:
- Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete
- Lunar: Eternal Blue Complete
- Vagrant Story

I'd prefer they be with the Black Spine/Top which reads "Playstation", and without the veritcal bar on the front (if possible).

I've already uploaded Raws @ 600 DPI of the Front/Back covers for both Lunar games. I'm about to upload the Front/Back covers for Vagrant Story (again 600 DPI). I'm in the process of trying to get scans of the boxes (though the SSSC box is in tough shape in certain spots). I can provide 1200 DPI scans if needed (note the file size ranges from about 28-32mb per image).

Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete
- 600 DPI Front = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarsssc_front_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Back = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarsssc_back_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Front Inlay = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarsssc_f_inlay_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Back Inlay = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarsssc_b_inlay_600_dpi.jpg

Lunar: Eternal Blue Complete
- 600 DPI Front = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarebc_front_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Back = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarebc_back_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Front Inlay = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarebc_f_inlay_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Back Inlay = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarebc_b_inlay_600_dpi.jpg

Vagrant Story
- 600 DPI Front = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_vagrantstory_front_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Back = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_vagrantstory_back_600_dpi.jpg
- 600 DPI Front Inlay = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_vagrantstory_f_inlay_600_dpi.jpg [Not Yet Uploaded]
- 600 DPI Back Inlay = http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_vagrantstory_b_inlay_600_dpi.jpg [Not Yet Uploaded]

Oh, I haven't found an option on my scanner yet to remove the Moire Pattern/Effect, thought I'm not 10% how bad the effects currently are (don't have photoshop installed on this PC yet) if some cover artist could let me know how much it would help I can keep looking for the option (I have a Kodak 5300 AiO if it helps)

Good stuff. I was thinking of doing these two (Lunars) next anyways. Was going to scan them in this next weekend. Can you remind me how many discs this is too?

Edit: just saw on the cover art. Four. Thanks.

I kinda already uploaded raws for Lunar: SSSC, just so you know.

Yeah I saw that this weekend. I think it's nice to have a backup anyways haha.

Sorry 'bout that ;) missed it when I scanned through.

Sorwah, let me know if you want the scans from the Front/Inside/Back of the boxes

Post by: sorwah on June 24, 2008, 01:04:29 AM
Could you get a scan of the back of Lunars?

Here's what I have so far for Lunar: SSSC. The Back & Spine are still WIP but the front is done. I was trying to keep the same font color as the box but it just doesn't look right and will have to experiment with other colors. If you could get me a scan of the side of the box so I could get the logo then I can use that for the spine. Also, this is a design for a one/two disc set, I might have to broaden the spine if you're planning on using a 4/5 disc set. Please let me know, it is possible to get a 4-disc DVD box with the size of a standard DVD case (http://cgi.ebay.com/10-pcs-Multi-4-in-1-DVD-CD-Case-for-4-Disc-with-Flap_W0QQitemZ140243105150QQihZ004QQcategoryZ61644QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).

Looks great so far! I'll get the back of the boxes uploaded tonight when I get back from work.

How are you on the placement of the ESRB?

Unfortunately Lunar 1 & Lunar 2 (especially Lunar 2) aren't really friendly with the placement of the rating. Would it be cool to put it in one of the top corners (left or right)?

i know some artwork really doesn't work well with the esrb logo but if i were you i'd keep it in one of the bottom corners.

Box Scans

Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete:
- Front: http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarsssc_box_f_600_dpi.jpg
- Back: http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarsssc_box_b_600_dpi.jpg
- Opened Flap: [Too Large to upload, apparantly]
Sorry the box is so beat up, no idea how it got into that condition, it was stored right next to the EBC box which is in much, much better condition

Lunar: Eternal Blue Complete:
- Front: http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarebc_box_f_600_dpi.jpg
- Back: http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Velmeran.retail.raw_ps1_lunarebc_box_b_600_dpi.jpg
- Opened Flap: [Too Large to upload, apparantly]

As for the ESRB rating, I wouldn't complain it it wasn't here ;) but I know others would miss it. All that said, I agree with Shenske and say leave it on the bottom (and it looks fine where it is, maybe you could have the part of the logo text/bar overlap it a little?

Yeah I know. That's my problem. If I put it in the bottom left or right it blocks either the Title or the Working Design logo. Right now I have the ESRB shrinked to just barely fit under the 'silver.' However, this won't work for Lunar 2.

Any new updates sorwah?

Nah sorry man, I have not had the chance. I'm still trying to think of ways to get the text on there.

Bump / request for any status updates?

Oh, and a Vagrant Story cover has been made, so can cross that one off now.

Yeah... update... I haven't gone anywhere with it. My apologies man but work has been workin' me harder these past weeks. I'll see what I can do and anyone else is welcome to work on it of course.

Here's an update. I was just in the 'work on covers' mood:

The back is done as far as I'm concerned. All that I'll be doing is all the legal crap and UPC. any comments/questions/requests let me know.

Post by: Hero's Shade on August 09, 2008, 06:02:17 PM
Could you possibly do a vertical version of this and EBC?
Title: Re: PS1 - Lunar: SSSC, Lunar: EBC, Vagrant Story - NTSC
Post by: sorwah on August 09, 2008, 07:02:07 PM
Okay, so now you want it vertical instead?

I'm only asking cuz you stated before you wanted horizontal. I might actually put more effort into it now since my personal collection uses vertical.

Also, I had a set back since my image editing program crashed while saving the layered file. (I.E. I only have the JPEG merged file)

As for EBC, we'll see after I finish doing this SSS.

Just so you know, it wasn't me who requested this. I just happened to notice that you were doing the cover, and since I have the game, I wanted the cover, too.

Still no progress on this front?  Damn . . . I'm really looking forward to this.  Arc the Lad Collection would be awesome, too.

Post by: Velmeran on September 15, 2008, 10:23:57 PM
Sorwah, whatever's easiest for you works for me ;)

While I'd prefer a horizontal, I can live with a vertical (as it's better than no cover) --- so if more would want a vertical then I'm fine with it.

Post by: sorwah on September 16, 2008, 04:54:08 PM
I'll see if I can get all that legal text and upc on the back cover this weekend. Any comments on the spine? right now it's just inverted from the scan's spine. I was planning on tweaking the pink/purple to white if that's cool.

Okay guys. I'm sorry I took so long. I was in the mood today so I finished it up:

I think it looks great. I needed this cover, too, as well as the other guy who asked for it first. If I may make one comment about it, though, the vertical cover's picture looks kinda squished to me. Oh, and in the text area, You should put a space before the word "And," and in between "of" and "incredible" in the 3rd paragraph.

Not sure what the etiquette is here, but I really like your Lunar cover, sorwah, but it seems that the covers are no longer in the uploads section of the site.  Is there another place where I can get it/is someone willing to reupload it?

I think that with the massive adding we just did you missed it.. Your Lunar covers have already been added to the site.
