So far, so good! Most excellent to see you back in the game, Brad! :cheers:

Have you tried adding some fog in the foreground, to add depth to the scene, and also show us the mist creeping up on everyone?

I'm chiming in about the TT. Somehow the hand interferes with the title, in my opinion. Does it say 'The Mast', 'The Most', or 'The Mist'? To avoid this dilemma, you could try adding the hand as the dot over the 'i' - or alternatively add a bloody dot about 'i' to emphasize that it is, in fact an 'i', not an a,o,u or... Just a thought.

Hi Guys!

Thanks for the input!

JR... It's great to be back! I think your fog recess refer to the back images, if so, my update blow does just that. I have finished cutting out the characters properly, and have added some fog to them as well.

As for the TT on the front, it seems the group is pretty divided, so I will either do 2 versions or just make a final decision at the end.

So, thoughts on the first part of the back?

The synopsis and the characters on the back looks pretty good, but i'm not a fan of the white borders you have on the back. Looks really weird the way they are now at least.

edit: Also, if you are going to use the hand on the windshield, you should make it smaller and change the perspective a little, since the windshield goes in an angle. PS, the steering wheel is a good indicator of how big the hand should be.

The hand to the right (white ring around) is the same size as the one on the left, but the perspective has been changed.

Thanks sauron, NR and quilt!!

Speed... Thanks for your ideas!! I will take a look into the white borders once I'm finished the back. As for the hand on front, good call, I will adjust it a bit if I use it!

Here is my update with more of the back updated some. The blank boxes are for the eventual screens. Thoughts?

Great update, I don't think you need to have "The Mist Special Features" as we already know it's the special features for The Mist so could just have it as "Special Features" also the white blood looks a bit strange, would look better red.

Thanks Speed and sauron!.. Okay, so I removed the title from the features section.

I have kept the white splatter for now, as I still like it better than the red version I tried... But am still deciding.

Here is my update before doing the screens. I changed up the characters in the features section, because I thought they looked too much like the ones above in the synopsis box. I also replaced the start of the synopsis with a quote, and added the 'special edition' to the spine TT...
