Maybe start with all the text first that way you see how much room you have left for imagery.
Btw looks great so far buddy!!

Thanks guys,

Brightened up the Falcon and the X-Wing, and added more colour and zest to the back top image area. Falcon has to be a little darker/dirtier than the Imperials right?

Have been playing with the area below the Anakin / Obi Wan image as I would like to have the individual movie titles there but so far haven't got anything worthy so still trying to let the brain come up with an idea, if you guys have any I'm all ears :)

Good ones guys :)

JR I'm just not really sure atm mate, I know I want to use some logos, I also want to somehow have each movies title in there, credits are a no go, and legals probably not either, so
Movie titles, possibly something like EPISODE 1 The Phantom Menace etc....Or 1 large EPISODES follwed by the individual titles. But right now I have no idea how to place them, in what style, thinking the same font as MAY THE FORCE....., A different background or shape in there, have hit the brick wall atm in this area.

V thanks mate and if you do think of something I'll be forever grateful bud, cheers ! :)
I have 2 little pretty good looking images, old Obi and Yoda, thinking at this point they can be worked in with the titles

IMO, I think credits aren't really needed for your cover. would really take away from the design.

I say make the synopsis longer to tell a brief story from all 6. then add a similar box for logos. If anything the only other bit of information that could be useful is a specs box with Audio and Video info in it.
