So... My first WIP.

My main thought is that Zorin is weirdly placed but it is the original poster that i have reworked.

Now for the back, it must reflect the era, the atmosphere...

Any suggestions, advices, critics are welcome, of course

I like this. It is a really unique design My only critique would be that the noise is a little heavy, in the background.

Looks good so far, however, I feel like you need the title on the front because at the moment "Has James Bond finally met his match" looks like the title.

It is the presentation,. At 100% it is much more lighter.
But i will reduce a little bit to see what is like...

Oops, yes, you're right. i haven't mark the case of TT...

No update yet?

Boy you are slow...

[ripley]

it is because i work essentially to create the new site based on joomla of my social center (official work) and it is time consuming. They gave me 2 weeks. deadline is wednesday. But....

So i'd like to go to the second one, for the tt's and have the same font for all the collection.
tried different, even a gold one for goldfinger, as you can imagine.

I really love the pencil sketch style but the first one is not so bad too...

And i'm aware of the rule of third but in this particular on, it was not possible to put the title where it normally belongs to.
it was not so "beautifull"; if i might use that term

Personally, I am not fond of the front titles at all. I don't mind the second spine title, but I am not sure the style suits the series.

I am not sure the style suits the series.

Maybe a general presentation of several titles will figure it out

Here are some steps away...
Still thinking of the TT's spine.

Title would be better at the top wouldn't it? rather than have it on top of the image, then have the tagline (smaller) at the bottom.

[ripley]

Something like this?

Must add some effects of course.

Think it should be dark like the rest of the cover, works better up there, maybe move it up a little more

Wouldn't the tagline be better on one line? and dark as well? make it smaller then move it down so it don't overlap the front image.

The general rule of thumb in design is to avoid placing text on top of images, it reduces readability and the whole point of having text is for it to be readable.

Also why the purple color for the year? that color is used no where else on the cover, that seems kind of random to me.

Not sure I'm fond of the low contrast images on the back and normal contrast on the front and spine, would it not be better to be consistent and pick one style?

Interesting take on this movie/series.

I like that style of images and I guess it would work very well for the newer movies as well.

I agree with everything Curt wrote in his last post. I think the title shouldn't overlap the image as well. In black it should be better to read but half in and half out of the image doesn't work for me. It should be in or out.

I'm not sure about the low contrast image on the back as well. I like the saturated sketch look of your front and say the back image should look the same. On the other hand it would be worth a try to do the same on the front as you did on the back. That way should fit that style very good as well.

[ripley]

something is missing... personal feeling...
Maybe main front picture up a little bit...
and white for the year is added too
The purple was there because tagline on the original poster was purple... I've just put same color.

Hm, I'm not sure this is working, you should at least adjust the levels on your front, the black isn't the same as on the back.
But what about the other way around? Back in the same way then the front was before?

The title isn't working for me right now. You can try to move down the top rectangle down so there's enough room above it for the title written horizontally.

Followed your clever advices

i would put the title in the buttom and has bond final meet his match at the top

[Speedz0r]

It's looking pretty good, but that drop shadow on the text has got to go.
