Life is my favorite cover of yours. With this you went out of your comfort zone and created an independet design. I like your use of textures on this and the images, colours, fonts and the layout work pretty well together. :cheers:




I also like your Wedding Crashers pretty much. I think comedy covers are always harder to create than any kind of action movies (and not only because of the resources) so it's always great to see designers take a shot on one of these.

Title looks good, just as the montages on front and back. And I like the creativity of the stills and SF area. You are putting together some very good artworks and I very personally think, your next step should be taking the focus some more on adjusting the images you're using on a cover - that would improve your artworks even more I think. :)

I can NEVER choose just 3 covers, so I'll simply say that I really enjoy his work. It is ALWAYS creative and well coordinated. Thank you for your efforts :)

Just to clarify to everyone, you do not have to pick three. Just one is plenty :)

As others have said, very difficult to choose favorites from an artist that creates covers of such consistent quality!

Here are three that stood out...

Black Widow
Excellent use of a tritone color palette, beautiful and subtle incorporation of textures, and a great utilization of the "redacted info" motif.


American Pie
Some truly outstanding use of filters to enhance imagery that is now 21 years old (man, I'm getting old). Awesome font choices and overall layout.


Passengers
A beautiful, subdued color scheme with nice use of tech elements. However, I would like to see you get a bit more adventurous with font choices for the synopsis and special features. Also, remember to proofread your text, I count three typo's in the Special Features just at a quick glance: "Passangers", "C(missing 'h')ris Pratt," and "Homeestead Company." It's little flaws like these that slightly weaken an otherwise flawless cover. If English is not your first language, perhaps post the cover in the forum for us to help proofread before uploading (or you can always upload and revise it later).


Congratulations on Designer of the Week, robe77!

Hi guys!
Thank you very much for your comments and kind words. I learn from almost everyone or just open-minded what I do on the cover. I really like the works of BunnyDojo, Xshoty and Kernie’s beautiful Front pics. For me, always collecting pictures is one of your biggest problems and coloring :-).

Fidi is my big favorite that she does on the covers of the latter is impressive and detailed. Yes I am looking for new options, but sometimes a little stuck in my comfort zone :-))). :cheers:
Kerni from the words of praise .... uhh :yes: :-) . Unfortunately, my HDD capitulated twice and a lot of my old work got there so I can't fix that cover for now, but I'll try to avoid mistakes later.
