You're the best Bear78. Thanks

No problem!
I started to look at your scans for War 3010 and while they are great DPI, they are really dirty and are going to require a ton of work to the point I'm having trouble telling what's artwork and what is dust / scratches /etc. Do you still have the box to scan again? Or can anyone else provide some scans for it?
Here's what I am talking about. The top part is the unaltered scan and the bottom has a normal amount of noise reduction done to it. Usually I go over the entire front image and correct all the scratches / dust / bends / etc. then apply a small amount of noise reduction to "smooth" it over a bit before doing any color correction. Lighter more colorful covers are a lot easier to hide a lot of this but if the cover is dark / black, it requires a lot of attention. This is just one corner of the cover and most of the cover looks this bad up close. If I can at least get a cleaner cover dust wise, I might be able to clean up the scratches but it's still going to be a fair amount of work.
Not trying to harp on you (or anyone else) in anyway, just trying to let you in on how I work and what I am looking at when trying to make a cover. Maybe someone else looks at this and says this isn't a problem and can clean it up easier / faster then me but I'm a self taught, doing this in my free time, using free software guy :P

I'll keep an eye out for a cheap War 3010, hopefully can grab one in a lot.

Where is the scan for War 3010? Can't find it. It doesn't look too bad to me.
