Thought I'd open a wip on this, even tho this is still just the begining of what will be...

Scene for keyart chosen, Eurostyle for TT/Actor's names - close enough to the original TT. Still playing around with styles/effects on that part. Also still have some image adjustments to do, and maybe insert a sort of stock garage looking warehouse scene behind (maybe). Also need to finish the shadows beneath Mr. Pink and Keitel. Cropped to the org image right now.... I will see where it takes me.
I'm still looking for the Mr. Blonde scene where he's having his fun with the cobber for the top back image, but haven't been able to find that scene in good enough resolution yet... As this should be sorta a tribute to Mr. Madsen, I can't miss out on giving him proper room on this cover.

PS - credits set with Tim's Famed, of course - and set in the style of the original BD release ;)

I haven't seen the movie recently enough to know the exact shot, but this site has 90 pages of 1920x1080 screen caps:

Looking strong so far! I worry that the black and dark gray on the front might melt together when printed... maybe a little brighter or a little extra texture or splatter to help separate them from the background?

Yea; a stock warehouse scene behind the center piece would help that, even if faint and blended into the texture.

I'll save that link, and see if it helps for other movies, thank you! That Mr. Blonde scene is so disturbing!
