Agree with Bunny. :)
This is coming very cool, sutch a great effort.
In my simple opinion, u think you should try to match that front of III movie (Turtles in Time) that you allready made with this one and the one left,
because it was a good compose and colours.
Keep it on dude.

This is where all of the excellent work you've put into the back really pays off -- Why not enlarge the turtles, bring in that green textured background, and add the title treatment on top on a piece of metal (or, say, a pizza box, if you want to get cute)?

It'll match, you won't have to worry about getting too complicated with your composition, and you'll have a tight template for yourself for the other films so that you can finally put together and finish that ultimate Turtles set you've been flirting with for a year now. :)


I actually was tinkering with enlarged images for a while, but wanted to get a little fancier. I see what you're saying Bunny, I do get too complicated with my compositions and it does drag out time (hence my lack of covers in months!). I try to match the back so I can get this set movin', thanks again guys ;)

I agree with Bunny... I desperately want to see you FINISH a cover without too much back-and-forth on several different designs. There's something to be said for committing to a direction and seeing it through to the end. I'm saying this not for myself, but for your own sake, so that you can have that feeling of accomplishment that comes with uploading a new cover and receiving praise for it in a Showcase thread. And judging by the awesomeness of that back cover... you're going to get a lot of praise for this cover! :D

Take your time, enjoy what you're doing, and of course, be proud of what you're making. But get it done so we can all "ooh" and "ahh" at the finished product! :D :D :D

On that note, I like what you've done on the front so far, but I think it's a tad too early to comment as it seems you're still experimenting with it (but I do also agree with Bunny that you should use the grungy green texture from the back on the front... I love that color and texture!). Keep going! :thumb:

Okay, its been a looooong time since i made progress on a WIP, here we go!

On the front, I made color adjustments on Raphael, i plan to have the same color scheme for Donnie, Leo, and Mickey. I am doing minor color adjustments on the back turtles to make it feel more like one cover. Hit me with some input please ;)

Love it bro! You even take more time than me to finish a cover but they are worth a wait!

How about add the background texture to the spine?

Should the backgound texture for the spine be a continuation of the front or placed specifically for the spine area?
