I am willing to update the cover btw. I'm sure that you could give me a nice official "blurb" for the back cover and a screenshot or two. And the vital details which have no doubt changed since I last updated the cover.

Here's a preview-size version of the latest incarnation of the cover. The text is probably all out-of-date:
And here's the cover with a more brown hue. I think, reading over the thread, that the hue of the cover should be shifted from orange to brown. Y'know, more sepia-like. What do you think? Trooperman?

As far as the SL/DL is concerned, I'd prefer to have the commentary only on the DL disc so that the quality isn't diminished (as much). Just my two cents.

On the cover: Not bad, but I am so sick of the standard gold spine on all the releases. It is on almost everything. This edit is special, why not have a bit more 'oomph' in the cover? Not that the washed out one isn't nice, but printed covers tend to be a bit washed out anyway. I'm concerned that it will look extra-murky when printed. Just my 2¢.

This is just what I had lying around from several months ago (at least). I am all for a more creative cover, however I'd like Trooperman's input before I start changing anything. The washed-out one was a quick and dirty effect. I expect that if I were to do something similar for real then I'd make it look better.

Was there ever a PT poster made to look like it was from the 70's?
That'd be cool...
Very nice cover though, klokwerk!

No big deal. Just my 2¢. I do like the washed out concept. Like most projects and edits, I usually modify all the covers anyway for my personal collection.

Of course! I'm glad you're still following the thread after all this time
Yes, the specs have definitely changed since last year. The title, the characters being dubbed, the crawl... all of this has been changed. When I get time, I can send you the necessary info. What a great start on the cover, though! I like the washed out idea too. Was there ever a PT poster made to look like it was from the 70's?
Now THAT would be neat
Maybe an alternate OT-style cover with a SOTDS title to match the OT logos, and a colorful layout. I am so excited about this edit Trooperman, and if you have time I would love to see some clips with the new and improved audio
I'll see if I have time to do that
On the one hand I don't want to give too much away, but on the other hand I want you to see my work. I'll see if I can't get you all a couple more glimpses. -----------------------
In addition to that outline of my game plan I just posted, I just remembered that I haven't finished Mace Windu's lightsaber yet. So I'll have to do that before I start on credits as well....

I am sure we can mock up a colorful 70's style poster looking cover. However, I'm afraid my hi-res resources for Ep II aren't as great as III or even I & IV-VI. Anyone care to share some publicity shots or concept art?

Are you talking about the ones on page 63?
This one here with Anakin carrying Padme looks pretty cool. Still could probably use the main Star Wars title logo on the front, though.

One thing that would be really neat is if a logo could be made for SOTDS (that could be put on the front cover) that matches the OT logos. Like this:
Notice how "Episode V" is nowhere to be seen- it's just the title.
Thank you so much for putting a cover together- I have no experience with that whatsoever, and I really love what I'm seeing so far. And thanks to Twister for the links...

twister111, thanks for those links. I actually had most of those images however, there were several that I didn't have as well as higher quality versions of some of the ones I do have. Thanks.
No problem.

THX, I agree that Struzan's work for the prequel posters does look pretty OT (though it would be good if he did a joining set at som point in the future, much like he did for the SE). I think that I will do a version with the poster no matter what other covers I do. Does everyone agree that adding some filters like sepia, film-grain, etc, would be a good idea for the poster? Untouched it just doesn't seem to fit.
I can take a crack at it. I recreated Jambe Davdar's "Building Empire" logo for my cover as I wanted a hi-res version, so I've had experience dealing with that style of logo before.

The Star Wars logo was on there but was very low-quality as that shot has been resized to 250-300% to fill the front cover. That's partly why I decided to use some filters on it. I did do a layer with the SW logo but I must've left it off. Will give a preview of that soon.
Trooperman, I've always liked that "Episode II Teaser" as it's called too. I might try and email the person who photoshopped it and see if they have a higher quality version.

I really like the picture on the last cover posted by Klokwerk. But I do like the faded theatrical poster as well. Maybe the faded theatrical poster (or another 70's/80's style movie poster created from concept art) could be put on the front, and the picture with Anakin holding Padme could go on the back of the cover, or the chapter list, or something like that. I really like that last picture.

THX, I think it's "shroud" now isn't it? The thread is "shroud". I think at the time when I first created the cover Trooperman was using "shadow". I changed it to "shroud" on the latest preview because I assumed that's what it was now (hard to know for sure when we all just use the SOTDS abbreviation). I also changed the fonts if anyone's interested. Well sort of. See, I was using Trajan and now I'm using Trajan Pro. It looks much nicer up close.
