Steven's (Not So) Amazing Custom Covers Workshop

Hi everyone. I feel like I'm spamming the 'Custom DVD Covers' thread, so I decided to make my own one, showcasing my own DVD/CD/Blu-ray/whatever covers, and share them with anyone who wants them.

MY COVERS ARE - AND ALWAYS WILL BE - AVAILABLE ONLY THROUGH E-MAIL REQUEST. I've seen too many fan-made covers used by bootleggers, and I'd appreciate if mine didn't end up that way.

I also take requests! I won't necessarily do them but... y'know... request away!

I'll get the ball rolling then...

Here's one I'm very proud of...

PROPHECIES OF NOSTRADAMUS: Five (or six!)-Disc Edition

There's also a let of labels to go with it...

And here's my latest which I'm also very proud of. It's for a four-disc edition of THE RETURN OF GODZILLA, featuring three versions of the film and bonus features. It it is intentionally Criterion-esque!

And here are the disc labels...

You've got some pretty cool stuff here. Your cover and disc designs for the Prophecies set are particularly impressive.

Just a wee update here...

This is for the legendary twelfth episode of ULTRA SEVEN, "From Another Planet with Love". Infamously banned in Japan, this episode obviously isn't available anywhere, so this was just for fun of course... ;)

Designed to specifically match Shout Factory!'s recent complete series set. I matched it as much as I could and to be fair to myself I think I did a decent job.

Front cover first draft for a replacement cover for the RETURN OF ULTRAMAN English-subtitled set recently released in Malaysia. That particular set comes in an oversized box, so this one will be designed to fit in a regular sized case.

Here’s my finished alternate cover for the recent THE RETURN OF ULTRAMAN boxset released in Malaysia. At the moment, this is the final version, but I’ll probably make a few minor tweaks once I receive the set itself and add a few little specifics. Very pleased with it anyway!

Finally printed out my RETURN OF ULTRAMAN cover! Really happy with how it turned out. I think it goes nicely with the two recent Shout! Factory releases, which I was deliberately trying to emulate.

These are awesome! I'm in awe of your graphic design skills, Steven. ^_^

Hey, what sort of paper do you recommend for printing DVD covers? I've tried printing covers before but was never satisfied with how they came out...clearly standard copy paper and photo paper aren't the way to go.

Quick cover I whipped up out of disappointment for Kraken Releasing's new covers. I'm still desperate for an official release to use this artwork!
