Animé Custom Cover project?
tbonesteak4dinner:
These look great!
A lot of the boxed set Animés look great, but any of the ones in standard DVD cases tend to look a little shoddy, so this is a nice improvement.
I just picked up a copy of 08th MS Team (The Anime Legends version :-\) and it could definitely use a little sprucing up....

Wow, been a while. And I completely apologize about that. Stuff went down, up, sideways, and every other which way. But it's all starting to settle down, I'm in a new place, better internet, and finally have access to all of my discs. So, I've been tinkering away, and made some pretty drastic changes. If anyone's checked out my Box, I've been updating a lot of my previous covers to this new version, put the new template up, and just did a lot of general housekeeping. Anyways, getting to the meat of the matter...

Kamen Rider W? Just happens to be the first completely new cover I've done for awhile, actually. A preview link, beware because it is full size, but it shows off the new "type" identifiers, the new front cover style, and the slightly altered spine work.

Well, it's in the same style as the rest of the covers, but if that doesn't bother you, there is an 08th MS Team cover on my Box as well.
There are still a few covers I haven't updated to the new format yet: 6 Angels, Gundam MS IGLOO 2, SEED DESTINY, V Gundam. For 6 Angels, I want to re-extract the back cover image and do a little better job with it (the OCD-ist in me, I guess); for IGLOO 2, I simply don't have a back/spine image for it yet, and may have to reluctantly result to using one of the mobile suits in it (I know it's all about selling the toys, but Gundam has always been about the characters to me, so I hate using the suits as the main image-works). SEED DESTINY is lacking a cover, as I'm picky and want something with Shinn and Kira, and may have it if I'm willing to go landscape with it; and V Gundam is going to feature either a different or re-extracted back image, as I'm quite unhappy with my rather slopping editing of the previous Katejina image.
If for whatever reason you liked one of the previous versions of the template better, they are all still up on my Box as well; Version 1.0 is the original, from my first post, while 1.5 is the hybrid, with 1.0's front and spine but 2.0's back.
