Yea, I am a old fart, making covers for old movies with no resources.

While waiting and gathering resources for another old movie, I came across this one in the dusty old PSD folder. Thought I might give it a go. I have no idea what resources are out there, so maybe it is futile.

I believe this is from the time I strived towards CLASSIC RETAIL DESIGN; much like legends like Paris, Felipe (Arkflp) and others.

Now, bear with me - this is rough - Text should be fine (maybe tagline is a little small - but it was considered sexy in those days) - still some work to do on the scene itself. I remember cloning the sh1t out of that grass line, lol The wolf isn't really there yet. I'll work on getting it where it should be.

This is a great front, and I don't think the tag is too small 8834.gif

Looks good so far, I'd only suggest adding a bit more light/brightness to it 8834.gif

This is shaping up nicely 8834.gif Can you change the stills blue sky to a red/orange, to match the other skies? Also, the dog on the front looks very sharply cut out compared to the horse. But that may be the small preview.

Just so you know, you can post full sized images in here, as they are all watermarked 8834.gif It would be useful to see a full sized version of this.

Bigger size then; not full size, since the file is above limit (even when saved to web).

Did a little something to the wolf fur on the front. Reworked colours on the back. Better?

I prefered the top image the way it was with more yellow tones, just maybe needed a little less to match the yellows on the front or to add slightly more yellow to the front

How about this? Lessened the red hue 25%

Is the top image on the back one piece or a scene you put together? If the man on the horse and the wolf is "easy to move (.pngs)", i'd move the background with the guys riding horses more up to free more space for the synopsis (this means remove the barcode or make it a lot smaller). I'd also move the quote more to the right. Sorry for bad example.

So, losing the barcode gives me a little more wiggle room. Here goes...

Looking even better. I would add a rim light to the wolf on the front, so it matches the horse. Also, I would blur the mask to match the horse. At the moment the wolf is sharply cut out, and the horse isn't. And then I would make the background of the back sly more red/orange.

Is there a texture you could add to the features too?
