Love the back but maybe put a black layer with low opacity behind the synopsis.

And i would like to see the orange/brownish colors. what you have in the sky on the back, also on the front

Thx Wes :arms:

Trying to add some brownish color to the front has proven to be quite a bit more difficult than I anticipated, but here goes. Added some USAF Bombers (used both in Europe and the Pacific according to my research), and also some more EXPLOSIONS (MUHAHAHAHAW)

Some minor tweaks on the back:

Comments, suggestions, and of course opinions are more than welcome!

Synopsis definitely looking better like that.
The top quote is perfect where it is, but I don't think you need the "stunning" quote. It crowds the back image a little too much.
You could maybe even add a little orange explosion on one of the boats in that space, to tie in with the front.
Shaping up nicely though.

Great back layout bro! Very pro!
I’m ok with the synopsis, the only thing I think you need to work is the front tones. Imo the back colors work better, try perhaps a more brownish tone for the front?

Very well executed so far!

EDIT: Just saw the new update, not sure if the explosions are working, but i'm glad to see some more brown. And i say.. keep the 2nd quote, i think it give the balance the back needs to be consistent.

What Ark said.

Something like this?

Looking great! Personally I prefer the first spine treatment you had (just the title, no image of the actor down at the bottom)

looking good bud, not keen on that particular spine pic though

Remove the spine pic and stay with the 1st one you did! No need for a spine pic on this.
Back looks done imo, but there's something bothering me on the front... like i said on my previous post, i really don't think the fire explosions are working and honestly you don't need to add them. Can you try a 60/70% grey gradient above the sky? It looks too brown now..

Another thing i noticed was the cutout on the pictures. From the preview it looks you cuted the guys to add the image with the water. Am i right? If i'm not wrong, use the blur tool so the cutouts can looks more blended with the background.

Thx guys - wasn't sure about adding a spine pic, but had to try, y'know? I'll go without, thx.

I think the back is done, unless I spot some small flaw or sumthing. (on a sidenote let me tell you I think perhaps this credit block has been the most laborious/troublesome I ever made. Each 'double' line (i.e Co-Executive Producers a.s.o.) had to be made on a different layer, since almost each episode has a different write and/or director... Then all the different text layers had to be adjusted and so on.... Anyway, I think I pulled it off nicely

The front, as you say consists of various pics; The guys in the boat, an ocean/shore, a boat, the beach, the extra explosion, B-25s, several layers with clouds in different hues and of course a bottom color. Add multible adjustment layers and whatnot - then you have an idea of how the psd looks like

I'll work some more on the front and will see about a gradient in the sky. Forgot about the edge of them fellas, will fix that too

Thanks again for the input!!!
