This looks great invisigoth !!! Some comments though. LEON of the TT looks a bit too pale in the last version imo, this compared to the leon pic. Maybe try a sans serif font for the critique, looks a bit od to me since it is the only serif font on the cover, mabye a personal item though.

Great job, Sam! You may just have inspired me to finish off my own old old wip for this awesome flick.

I like the concept of the illustrated front with the realistic back and the sepia effect looks good too but... the gun on the front is not so good the bit I highlighted in red doesn't look right, it looks like its a separate part from the main barrel (see screenshot for actual gun used), thats the first thing that hit me when I saw the front.
also the silencer needs some work, as its a precision machined cylinder that screws on to the barrel it should have crisp sharp lines, the one here looks like its limp/bent and has an elliptical end and it shouldn't have such jagged reflections, its not your fault invisigoth, its wrong on the original Italian poster, which is sorta cartoon-like and never did justice to this film and I'm guessing thats not your intention here, imo it doesnt sit well with the beautifully drawn Portman character which has a far greater depth of emotion.

Definitely agree!
I need only add that it is not the first perfect cover, and I am confident that this is not your last outstanding work partner!

I agree too but I have to be honest, the quality of work for the 2 vectors looks very different, did you do them yourself or find them on the internet?

Thanks for all the positive comments guys..

I'll think about the suggestions, I'm making some changes today but I'm not sure on how many.

And for the 'art police' LCD, one was a poster and the other a wallpaper, hopefully you didn't get the impression that I made them although the italian poster I used wasn't the greatest resolution (Reno) so I made it into a vector and colorized it to suit the background I made. Yes I know they're different styles but I feel they work together on this front. (even tho Reno is more 'cartoony' and the gun isn't a replica) As I mentioned this front went thru a half a dozen major changes, ask moviemonster..

I did make several vectorized Reno's but when I saw the poster that image seemed better to me even tho it wasn't a classic vector image like Portman. most of the Reno's I made have been used on many other covers and I was looking for something not seen as much.

I post an update soon..

BTW LCD
This is actually one of the first drafts of this cover. I made this Reno vector to better match the Portman style wallpaper. I wasn't finished with the reno vector (still too much detail and colors) but you can see how I changed direction from the face to face version..
