WOW!! Very cool stuff, these look pretty unique from other covers I’ve seen. Where did you source the artwork from?
It’s been a while since I’ve done these now, I can’t remember for all of them but I do know that the ILM portfolios were great for II and III. A lot of the rest of it came from googling other people’s collections of concept art for the films.
Hi all, I’ve been on this site for a bit now, but haven’t started my own topic before, so if I’m doing this wrong just let me know.
I’ve been seeing custom covers on here for a long time now, and I finally had time to make a set of my own. These are designed for Criterion 17mm cases for more room on the spines and inside.
I was planning to just do those nine at first, but then I though that I needed to do covers for Solo and Rogue One too. These I did a little differently. Since I’d used the Mos Eisley concept art for the Skywalker Saga, I found concept art from the anthologies that would match up with spines well enough without totally blending in.
I’m pretty happy with the end result.
As of right now I haven’t printed these, so I don’t think the image files are the right size for the cases. There are some instructions at the end of the imgur album here which should be close to the right size, but I’m not completely sure if that will get it to the right size.
Nice work! I dig the logo. Did you make that or find it?
Thanks! I pulled the logo from a fan-made poster I found on Reddit and recolored it so it was all yellow.
Well, it took a long time, but I’m happy with the work. I’m still planning Rogue One and Solo cases if I can get the art the way I like it first. Enjoy!!
I got inspired by these and wanted to finish out the trilogy. Thought I’d use quarantine as an excuse to learn PhotoShop. Here’s my take on a Rise of Skywalker VHS-style cover:
This is the first cover I’ve done, so it’s not perfect. I tried to age the poster art I found to match the classic looks of the OT covers, but it might’ve gotten a little too grainy.
Thanks to EyeShotFirst for the inspiration!
