I want to make my own DVD covers. I don’t want to sell them.

Kidding kidding :)

I have not yet seen long box reproductions; but i bet there would be a market for them!  Especially for games with the long manuals that won't fit in a DVD case.

I've never tried to make reproduction 3DO long boxes, but it was once my goal to make covers that would fit inside the clear long box protectors.  These would have the same appearance and overall size as the long boxes which would allow them to sit on a shelf next to the real thing and look good without the worry of making something that could be confused for the real thing.

The only trouble has been getting the appropriate artwork to make such a thing.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

That’s how I store my Atari carts.  Printed inserts inside the box protectors.  Looks great.

I've seen those and the definitely look awesome.  Unfortunately, you need a lot of artwork to fill up a box protector for a 3DO long box.  Most of the artwork that I've scanned as been from jewel cases.  It's better than nothing, but not really enough to make long boxes.

If only that were true - however i am one of the most generous.......

I had done a Liciennes Quest a while ago in a different style - so reworked it for you.

The front was from a really bad photo, so it's a bit of a glitter rolled turd :)

Thanks Sheep; you most certainly are!  A good portion of my collection is cased because of your generosity and for that i am eternally grateful. 

I find artists are often their own fiercest critics.....to us your covers always look great!

Thanks again!
