I hope someone re-scores it with Williams’ music.

Superb stuff that 😃

Hey guys I made Blu Ray cover and disc art for SW 97 in anticipation for this project!

https://imgur.com/a/2A9l0

I’m planning on doing this with the rest of the trilogy AND with TPM project. Let me know if you like them and what I could do to improve upon them.

Thanks!

Edit: Just added in ESB. At this rate I should have ROTJ and possibly TPM done tomorrow.
Edit2: ROTJ is done!

Needs a bit of work, but I like where it’s going.

Thanks! What would you suggest me changing?

Edit: I noticed the resolution is messed up in imgur. I’ll try fixing that!

Yeah, you’ll be able to use the actual scan later for all those screenshots which will look a lot better.

A guy on DeviantArt made some high-res textless versions of the posters.

I thought the same thing! Yeah right now they’re basically the images used on the vhs boxes. I’m not too sure how I feel on the disc being a 35mm reel, can I get your thoughts on that?

That version isn’t very good quality, you’d be better off using a lower resolution image and then enhancing it using waifu2x-caffe. Here’s an example:

Original:

Enhanced:

Will work a lot better of course if you feed it a better image to begin with.

phildesfr has just done quite a sweet set here - http://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/1144256

(and more of his top covers - http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Phildesfrs-Blu-Ray-Complete-Set/id/56080)

though I do like trillary dump’s SW back cover - and especially the discart, nice one 😃

Lol of course phildesfr made SE covers better than me. Mine are basically the VHS covers in Blu Ray format.

I just added the ESB cover and disc art to the album if you wanna check them out!

And thanks for liking something about my work haha

Don’t do yourself down mate - I like them, and prefer a cleaner / stark look to sets (too much small text & technical info has me squinting a fair bit these days!)

And there’s no such thing as ‘better’ - just a preference for whatever the individual beholder likes the most, especially for my awful eyesight - and some my awful inksaver cover sets down the years 😃)

Hope you post them up in the dvd covers section when you’ve finished them.

I like your cover designs very much, especially the disc art is really neat. The only suggestion I have is that you could refer to the 35mm-source on the Blu-ray cover itself, and not only on the disc art. But good work nevertheless!

So in anticipation of this release I bought the VCD set of the Special Editions, if anyone wants me to take scans of the disc art for this release I can if anyone wants to make something out of them for this.
