I have updated the files with the typos in the link. If you all find anything else, don’t hesitate to say anything.

These covers are amazing. It looks like on your first ANH cover you have the back saying “A lont time ago…”
Yeah. I will be fixing and updating the links later today. I am dyslexic lol
OP UPDATED!!! IMAGES AND FILES RELEASED! PLEASE ENJOY!!!
Do your inserts fit standard blu-ray cases or criterion cases? Great work by the way! I’m really looking forward to the finished product!
They fit 12.5mm Bluray cases, may modify eventually for everything to work with Criterion as a selection for those who want that, but that will be sometime in the future, I have a project after this one and one more before I get to that. I may work on it in between those though.
Everything is printed and looks great. I am waiting on my empty cases to come in to do “glamor” shot to share and release.
Did you have a local print shop handle the printing or did you do it? Just curious. I’ve been thinking about paying for a professional printing job but haven’t made up my mind yet.
I printed myself. The printer my friend has is pretty good.
The cases that I am waiting on are 12.5mm Blu-ray but they are a clear, with no color. I think it looks better since I have backs to the slip covers. The Blue cases made the colors look weird.

Finished!!! I will reveal once I get these printed and ready to show. The files will release when the debut happens. The goodies will be a surprise with the reveal! Hope to get this out this coming week or week after!
I have FINALLY finished my custom Blu-Ray Covers:
I really like your take on the retro VHS box. It’s reminiscent yet your own! Great job!!!
I would Love this to be a community Design. I would put up some of my own designs for the pick if anyone wanted to add and see what is liked.
Sad to see you take it down. I can not blame you thought with all the garbage of people stealing your design and using it to sell sets online. It scares me from wanting to put mine out. I want to get this out for free to the Honest members of this community they are a great bunch and deserve this kind of stuff.
Anyway, godspeed and hope to see some more from you someday!!!
^ cracking work mate -really like your image selection for the chapter inserts & leaflets 😃
Thank you!
Oh, heres something I’ve been working on in some spare time, note sure when I will release a set of these, but it will be sometime after the current project is done. Still, it has a lot of tweaking to make it better.
Ah omy god, I really love this…brings back memories. Let’s hope you one day finish a set of these and more importantly ( wink wink) share your work… Love this old school design.
These will definitely get a release after I finish my current set. But these will just be covers. No box or anything.
Oh man, could I get those beautiful disc covers templates in hd? Would really appreciate it!
I would love to but I am waiting to mass release the entire set, it will be soon though!
Sorry for the lack of update this week, been a crazy one. Oh the wonders of having a family lol
But here is a medium update.
These are the Disc Labels for the set. Enjoy!
P.S I have almost everything finished, I just want to add something special and hopefully, that will be done soon along with a printed set to showcase the release within the nex 2 weeks!
No one thinks you are an idiot lol. I really do suggest learning to make your own. I had no clue what I was doing and taught myself. I keep learning more and more. Just give it a shot If you can’t afford to buy covers. GIMP is a great place to start.
look at the thread below yours…
Sorry but what would a total set be in US dollars? I am very interested but on a budget

Big Update for the covers and Leaflet inserts. These are the backs to the covers that you see when you open the case. And I don’t think I need to explain what the leaflets are lol.
Here are the inside images for the covers
Star Wars Leaflets
Empire Strikes Back Leaflets
Return of the Jedi Leaflets
Still working on some Goodies for the set, not sure what they will be.
Here are the other two. Again, these are a WIP:
Again I love it. Can’t wait to see where you take them. Love these retro covers !
Here’s a small tease of what I’m currently working on (it’s not ready yet):
As you can see, I’m giving my covers a throwback look. They are inspired by the old CBS/FOX VHS tapes I had during my early childhood. I don’t want them to be exact copies. I used the color scheme as a reference, and lowered the saturation of the pictures. I also made an off-white color. This makes the covers look older, as if they have aged and faded over time.
Looks awesome!!! I’m a sucker for the retro look. Can’t wait to see more!
Messed around with Drop shadow until I got what I wanted with the text. Hard to see with smaller images but it looks a lot better and legible. And with all my updates there has been some tweaks. It’s getting close to how I want the covers. Then its tons and tons of work on this box and goodies!
some quality work you’ve done mate - love the slightly different tweaks you’ve done along the way too - the more possibilities, otions and choices the better 😃
and also the choice of the '92 boxset for the box itself 😃
Keep up the quality work - hope you don’t mind, I’ve added your box set to the ‘3-in-1 and box set covers’ thread, here - http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/A-list-of-Box-Sets-and-3-in-1-Trilogy-covers-by-otcom-users/id/53673
Awesome to see it added to the list! The revisions will probably be coming more until I feel 100% satisfied. It is nice to share the progression of the covers and more. The “92 box” is more of a re imagining of the orginal VHS one. I am wanting to do the side flaps like the '92 has, to hold some of the goodies I am making to go with the set. Then a slightly bigger sleeve fot he box to slide into. It is going to take a lot of patience and trial and error to get this just right. The Covers will Most Likely be released to you guys before anything else, with the final product box and all later (may contain slightly altered covers for that release lol)
Heres another lil update.
Covers have some font change, with a type of drop shadow behind for legibility. I also Squared up the alignment of text and images to have even “borders” and update backgrounds.
Here are some TOPPS W.I.P (inspired by Rowlims’s) I am trying to make my own, these will probably lose the characters and become source references that were used to make Harmy’s Despecialized.
If it’s similar to adobe photoshop, you might have a blending options or layer options, where you can chose an option for a drop shadow.
I do a drop shadow but its literally a big shadow cloud behind the lettering. But I will look into what you say and see what i can find and learn.
Here is a link fir his Ep IV Digi Pack. There are other offerings are listed as well.

Pretty bad ass! I kinda want to contact him about some stuff now lol.
Probably going to be a universal set, I am sure you can contact the guy for personalizing a set of your own.
