Custom Star Wars Original Trilogy Posters

Your posters are good, though it doesn't look like you fixed the credits for Empire. The print size seems small for what you are charging; I'm assuming these are unlicensed posters due to the mistakes.

What would endear your work to me and others here, would be for you to give us some lovely high-quality giant-size versions that the cover designers can use for custom sets ;) Or even just some clearer jpegs without a watermark would be great. Think of the free advertising if your posters are the next set of covers for Harmy's Despecialized Editions!

They are scaled down, of course, so others don't click on them and print them.  I put a lot of time into making these.  Furthermore, printing a poster the size of 36x24 (which we offer on our storefront) is very expensive :(

How about 1200 pixels high at 72dpi? They aren't going to print well, but at least we can have a decent look... Even if I was interested in your prints, I would not make a buying decision based on the low quality images you have shown. Are you able to correct the credits for Empire, or are the posters already printed?

By the way, if anyone wants to make some Olly Moss covers, here is what appear to be lossless png files of Star Wars and Empire. There's a Jedi one of equal size but it's a much crappier looking jpeg unfortunately. On one of them "Kurtz" is spelled "Kurts", which probably means these files got out there before the posters were finalized.

edit - new link that includes Jedi. These are not lossless files it turns out, Man_Overboard has vectorised them.

Re: These covers--I like the conceit; to me the trees on dagobah are too similar visually to the Endor trees, so I don't love that. The other thing is that the foreground creature in both SW and Jedi are "aliens" so it's weird to have one of our "heroes" in the foreground on Empire.  And finally I hate that ROTJ title treatment, which was invented for the SE releases. :) That's just personal preference.  I sort of feel like the credits blocks are a bit weird too and could use some text spacing or something.

I think they're executed very nicely from what I can tell. Good detail on the landscape on tatooine and the speederbike looks great.
