Hey Ron, just curious, but how did you get the art onto the discs? I usually use labels for mine, but because there are no stompers for the full-face designs, they’re always misaligned. Thanks!
i bought white blurays and printed directly onto them with the Canon printer, which comes with a cd/disc insert.
Best,
Ron
The new extras include miniature stickers replicating the early pins released 1977. And the big new addition: a reproduction of the original program book at a scaled down size. Tried to match the glossy stock as best as I could as well.
Wow, stunning work! I really love your reproduction of the program book!
Did you recreate this by printing high quality scans of the original or did you make your own digital version? I could manage to find high quality scans of most of the pages (I am still looking for hi res images of pages 17, 18, 19). I think I could re-use the images from these scans and recreate the layout and text parts from scratch. Would you tell which fonts and materials you did use?
I really would appreciate some help/info on making my own copy of this 😉
Yup. I scanned my copy of the program book and printed it on glossy photo paper. Still do not have it stapled, because I’m trying to find scaled staples to match the original.
best,
Ron
Hey Ron when do we get to see some of V3, your indy project or scans of the cardboard of v1 ? I am currently working on making my own slipboard boxes and love your artwork you did for v1
There really wasn’t a Star Wars V3. I’m pretty happy with where i left off. Though I’ll admit the work from home pandemic world of the last year has made me consider what else I can do to the set.
As for my Indy set, I though about reprinting the box simply because the original was on matte paper. Want to redo it in gloss.
Thanks for the intertest!
The circle is now complete.
Here are links to the complete covers:

I have no doubt we’ll get the original versions, but I meant 100% unaltered: Fox fanfare. original non-logo Lucasfilm title, no “ANH” crawl. The 1977 version.
-Ron
I was wondering, we all know that Disney buying Fox means Star Wars returns to the fold and COULD mean an OT restoration. Would that mean we’d get the Fox fanfare back into the first six films or do we feel that ship has sailed?
First of all, its not that difficult. You just have to have patience. It took me WEEKS to download each part of just the first film, and multiple attempts using different methods. Read the FAQ. Google how to do it.
Nothing drives me crazier than someone saying its beyond their means. It’s NOT. If you really want it, you can figure it out.
YOU CAN DO IT.
PS. How do you center on the PdF or Doc page the star wars blue ray slip inserts images?
Not sure what you mean with this question?
-Ron
Sorry, nope. I did a limited run of V1 a couple years ago, but that was $200. The V3 would be ridiculously expensive if I ever decided to do it.
Nope.
Hey Ron, what card did you use to make the reproduction of the Topps cards? And also what material did you use to make the case of the Topps Cards?
Thanks.
I used heavy white card stock. The cardboard effect was done with the original Photoshop file. Hope that helps.
Amazing work. How did you print the trading cards?
Just through a Canon inkjet on heavy stock.
-Ron
Yeah, it should work, but not with the slip case version.
How heavy is the card stock use to create the boxes?
If you didn’t have card stock to create the slipcases, what did you use?
It’s not card stock. It’s chip board. This is thick, thick stuff. You can buy it on Amazon…

RonWould this work with your original box do you think?
I’ve got em, anyone want them?
I’d love them. I lack the skills to edit the scenes back in, but would love to see them.
Thanks!
Ron
Here’s my latest set. The covers all use Mike Mitchell’s profile portraits. Unfortunately, it probably won’t be completed as a set, as he’s never done any portraits of the prequel characters.
I’ve posted the covers below, but interiors and disc art can be found at the link:
ENJOY!

I’d love a link as well please.

Puppet Yoda is done for one of the reconstructions, forget who’s. The other two prequels have yet to be created, but we can dream.
-Ron
I noticed some inconsistencies with the prequel covers so I just updated my original post. Be sure to refer to that instead of the replies.

Thanks. In case you didn’t notice, I did update the original trilogy covers with different backs that are even closer to the original posters.
-Ron
Any local print shop will do these. You’d just have to supply double-sided glossy paper;don’t use the shop’s crappy paper. Print 100% on 8.5" x 11" and allow full bleed. The interior art will bleed off the edges and covers just barely fit. Make sure you print with crop marks on at 100%.
Best,
Ron
Back after a break. While I’m not planning on releasing the art for my box sets, I did promise to upload the sleeve art. Here are the cases, interiors and disc art from my box set. I’m also including prequel and sequel covers.
