Title: DVD - Legacy of Kain Series - Custom
Post by: Drakul on September 10, 2009, 05:07:42 PM

This is a fairly odd request.

I'm currently working on a project to make video DVDs out of all the cinematic/plot points of the whole Legacy of Kain series.
I've already got all the videos ripped and now I'm looking to make the DVDs, menus, cases.....

So what i'd love is to get a cover for each "game" but without all the game info (ratings, # of players, console logos on spine, company logos on front.....) with the front cover being either the original cover in DVD (some are already available but with logos) or a custom job for each.

I'd really like the spine to have a similar feel for all games.
I also wouldn't mind a DVD art to print on and a background image for the DVD menu but that's extra :)

I know it's pretty unusual and wouldn't thrill most of you but I hope someone who loves the series could help me out.

Thanks!

Mel

I spent some time trying to find some good art for the series last year. There seems to be nothing out there for the early entries one would consider high enough resolution to use. I do wish you the best of luck though, it truly holds a special place in my memories.

I know! I'm having trouble finding good art as well. I found a phew good stuff on Deviant Art but it's a tough mission....

Would scans of the original covers of some of the game help?

I think the originals scan can't  hurt ;-)

vt102 - some of these are really cool! thanks!

Most of the original scans are already on the site I believe no?
If not I have all the originals (BO on PSX, SR on DC and BO2 and Def on Xbox......Actually I'm missing SR2) so if you need me to upload some let me know.

Soul Reaver 2 PC scan:

I guess my scanner isn't optimal for high quality scans.. but perhaps it would still look good on print.
