Added the synopsis, changed the spine TT again... nothing too drastic. Trying to find a good pic of Chang for the back...

Cookie Crisp Wizard :lol2:

The is coming along great! I know the angle of his face is a little unusual, but would it be possible to make McHale's head just a little smaller on the spine so his eyes aren't so close to the edges?

That's all I can think of, excellent cover! :)

Here's another update... I really like the addition of Chang, Duncan, and the Human Being to the back cover. I just hope it doesn't end up shooting me in the foot on future covers.

I shrunk McHale's head on the spine like you suggested, BD. I knew something wasn't looking quite right before. Thanks for the "heads" up! :laughin:

I think this one is getting close to being done. I still want to add some more "Greendale memorabilia" on the back cover and just some other random college-related odds-and-ends (paper clips, thumbtacks, pens, erasers, maybe?). I also can't forget to update the legals. But here it is at the moment.

Yeah i've never seen the show myself but this looks looks fantastic. It's quite a creative creation Kernie. I love all the effects you've done to it.

Another minor update... added the "First Season" text to the spine.

Any ideas on other "Greendale memorabilia" to sprinkle throughout the cover? I'm thinking some Greendale ID cards of the cast (maybe more supporting characters like Vaughn, Starburns, Leonard), but I'm open to suggestions!

Getting closer... :D :D :D

Thanks for all the feedback!!

Star Burns, Leonard and how about the statue of Luis Guzman for extra supporting characters. As for memorabilia, paintballs might be good with the Greendale logo. Pens & pencils with Greendale on them also.

That's all I got.

Thanks for the suggestions, donger! I think I'm going to try to fit the Luis Guzman statue onto the lawn on the front cover (to the right of Shirley). I added some ID cards for Star Burns and Leonard, the Kickpuncher comic book, a "Troy & Abed in the Morning" coffee mug, and some paintball splatters.

I know it's probably starting to seem a bit cluttered, but I kind of like it that way. As someone said earlier in this thread, I'm trying to make this into "the ultimate fan cover," so I'm trying to put in a lot of season-specific references for fans of the show. Most of these will change then for future seasons (it's easy to swap out different people on the ID cards by using Smart Objects).

I'd still like to do a little more work on the back, adding a few more items around the synopsis and put the Guzman statue and something else on the lawn on the front cover.

So here's where it's at so far, mostly minor additions to the cover, but I also started putting together some labels...
