Hey man, drooling over this. It did take me a while to realise that it was the six films in one case so the only thing. I much prefer the coloured overlay of the ships at the top on the back it looked too drab all in grey and I little part of me hopes that you release two versions one with silver detailing/title and one with gold because I just can't quite make my drunken mind up. Keep up the good WIP =)

Ok had a play around bud.. keep it simple, fillling in around the black but dont overdo it with images. Using some colour where your text is placed... a touch of texture would look good in the red. Plenty room for legals/logos.

Cool idea V, works well with the back imagery.

Maybe if he does that, the middle saber battle can be de-saturated a bat to fit with the rest of the cover.

yup, agreed ford.
For inspiration, take a look at some of the SW toy packaging NR.. you can get some great ideas there for your text panels and make them look really cool.

Thats great stuff guys!
Very much appreciated V, looks super mate, now my brain is ticking over a bit again, love that idea of looking at toy packaging had not given that a thought.
Thats very cool what you did buddy, very grateful :)

Hopefully can work on it tonight

And thanks for your feedback and comments mramazing, 2 versions, 1 white/silver/grey, 1 gold could be a good idea, cheers.

Using V's help in getting me moving again I have an update, I just couldn't "see" what I wanted in the bottom part, but now getting there, so here's where I'm at...I think old Obi works, thinking Yoda might be a bit of overkill?

And of course some tweaking and who knows what else to come but I think this the general idea, with room for logos at the bottom.

This is becoming an absolute masterpiece Nightrider.

Been very interesting to follow this WIP.

Love the look with the 25mm spine and cannot WAIT to print this off and add it to the collection.

Well done dude, stunning work. :jk:
