I too vote for the tt Bunny is using, I love it, and it was actually the first thing I noticed when the first cover went up, and I was very happy to see it.

I think it would look realy cool. I did a test. The way the orange and teal work off each other looks nice.



No sir this doesn't work at all. I'd have to punch Bunny Dojo if he ever agrees to this.

Thanks, guys! I'm really happy you like how things are shaping up. :)

:lol2:

It's admittedly been the logical choice. And, once done with this set, I will try out those official logos again (and in the gold treatment), along with exploring a 5-disc case option.

Unfortunately, I gravitate toward one design. It's a bit of a slimy stance, declining enthusiastic and perfectly good requests, but I really prefer having one final cover to reference and share. Even on something as simple as The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, with two color variations, it just feels different to not have a "definitive" design.

Great credit should go to guys like Kernie who are so generous about alternate versions and sizes and expansions. But, once they're finished, I'll probably embrace these five covers as my full adventure with the series for now.

Once finished, in my opinion these will not only be Bunnydojo's definitive Indiana Jones covers, but THE definitive Indiana Jones covers. Just my poin of view. :notworthy:

Stunning set, but I have a little nitpick... The color scheme for the two on the right looks almost identical, while the one on the left is much more green, it kinda looks like the odd man out... May I suggest using a slightly different color scheme for either of the two on the right, so they all look a little different (instead of them all looking alike, except for one)?

Sorry for not chiming in earlier, these covers are awesome and a refreshing change from the typical Indy covers out there (not to knock all the other covers out there, of course)!

I love the new title treatment and I think you should stick with it. But just to be fair to tkdkid, his suggestion wasn't that outrageous, folks. The orange/yellow of the original TT did kind of work, so don't be too cruel towards him. It was a valid notion, and if the custom TT wasn't a better option, I could totally see using it.

These truly look great, Tim... even though no amazing cover can make Crystal Skull a better film. :(

You really shouldn't give me credit for that. Making all those different versions is a pain in the butt and it's just a slippery-slope. Once you make one alternate version, dozens of requests for other slight variations start rolling in. You're best making one definitive version and hoping people can live with it the way it is. :D :D :D

Good point, Felipe. I'll aim to make sure that, by the time the set is finished, the covers spread out pretty decently across the green-blue spectrum. :)

Speaking of green, I really wanted to use the opening scene as inspiration for the Raiders cover, but now I'm going back and forth on whether the grass and dirt combo is too much of a departure from the other covers' sandy leanings. Will it float?
