After the first cover was done for HRC I've started with a front for "Chamber of Secrets".

On all fronts I want an image of Harry where his body is turned to the right and he looks to the viewer. The pose of Ron will hopefully only be a bit different on this front.

The three heads are form the official artwork and were very greenish. And the quality isn't really good, that's why the artwork was very dark I think. I did my best to cover that but especially on Harry there still is this shadow/light area on the left of his face (I've reduce the size but it's still there).

The young Tom as villain and Lockhard as teacher against the dark arts are the best characters for this movie I think (and I got two good images of them ;) ).

I've tried a motion blur on the train but that didn't look to good. Not sure how to place the tagline inside the box next to the head. And I want some effect that's making the howler's roar visible to the viewer. But I have no idea how to do that... :shrug:

This is what I have so far. As always any suggestions are welcome! :)

This is going to be a wonderful set, it's remarkable that you were able to create such a fresh take on the series.

For the train, what if you move the bottom of your frame up and have the train and smoke burst out of the frame a little bit? And, maybe have the back of the train subtly fade to gray to create a little extra depth?

Awesome start and I'm sure you'll do an amazing collection for the titles! Very different from the rest and now I don't think I need to complete my set :) Top job bro!

Great idea Tim, didn't think about that by myself. :cheers:
Is that what you had in mind?
