THE GREAT COVER DUEL

Okay, so last month's last entry is yet to be finished, so I took the liberty to get the ball rolling again, with the opportunity for others to step up!
Do you think you have what it takes to bring home my scalp, and earning the right for you to choose the next month's movie choices?

You can find Bunny Dojo's Rules & Regulations HERE

Please use this thread for your WIP, feel free to collaborate with another designer to create the best design.

You can use any kind of resources you want, you are not limited to the HRC gallery.

Hum… i like the titles you picked. Always wanted to do a cover for Dances With Wolves. Never heard about Adéle and the Secret of the Mummy, but I like the resources available.

What do you say? Wanna help me choose one title from the two I mentioned?

Well, I like all 5 titles.

Just caught the first episode of Hell on Wheels, looks like a solid Western Show :)

Adéle Blanc-Sec is originally a famous French Comic Book - and the movie has a sort of female french Indiana Jones feel to it - but with live mummies, a flying dinosaur and more! Hilarious to boot, I thought highly of the movie, when I bought the BD, watching it with my eldest.
Even if we don't do a cover for it - I can only recommend this to anyone!
I'm in the proces of uploading resources for Adele, just in case - so far 20 images, with more to come!

'Dances...' has been on my 'Wanting-to-do-list' ever since I first saw Stalker's DVD cover for it. Other custom DVD design for this title are also legendary IMO.

'Wrath...' was a disappointment to me, but wanting a new movie title I chose it coz of the resources. Possibility for classic, legendary design :)

'A Bronx Tale' is a very solid Gangster movie, starring De Niro - not as a gangster, but as a father whose son gets involved with the local Mob Boss. Epic movie!

Ended up adding around 30 images for Adéle HERE. They should be available, as soon as Jazzy gets off his lazy bum and adds the Gallery folder :whistle:

I'll see what I have lying around for the other titles! :)

No, it's not too late - And IMO the more the merrier. . Apparently Arkie has yet to get home from work. So far a journey that has taken him so many hours, I think he must be living in Sahara somewhere. (3rd oasis on the right). :D

So - no Challenger has picked a title yet. First Challenger decides the movie title - and gets to pick the 5 new ones next month. ;)

Should we give Ark a few more hours, or do I get to choose the title?
