good luck, Saber! great entries..

 

[SaberTooth]

My final entry.

Took me all freakin night *need sleep & food*

 

[lolwut]

I hope Danny Trejo likes my design

Dunno, half the designs being submitted aet just the theatrical posters being mixed and matched without any design or effort by the submitter.

heh, damn fingers
Lets try this again

I wonder when he'll pick the winner

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but don't get your hopes up...You need a lot more practice. The front is way too cluttered, and the back is severely lacking in the design department - it needs to be more than just a bunch of images copy-pasted.

 

[dfoles]

I'm sorry, but half of sabers designs are just the straight movie posters copy and pasted. I can find each image exactly as he shared already made up in a poster. There are definitely some awesome designs in there, but I have to say most of Sabers are not.

 

[SaberTooth]

^^ weather my designs are good enough or not to win is not what he's talking about - i think he's just plain tired of u reposting your single attempt every 3 pages

Spoiler

Furthermore, a good steelbook is all about the movie art, and not some wannabe designer's ego

 

[dfoles]

Can't say how many times I've seen people ***** and moan about generic movie poster art being used.

And I'm confident in my 1 design I don't have to submit 10-15 movie posters without any thought put in other than pumping out as much mediocre material as possible.

Dude, I admit the front cover of your design is pretty good but the back cover is nothing special and just because you have submitted a design doesn't give you the right to diss the efforts of others. You don't like them - I get that - that's your right. But theres plenty of others including me that appreciate the time and effort that was put in by Saber and others. Just sayin.

 

[dfoles]

I appreciate the time and effort that was put in by people too.

Here are the designs I like:

IMO, this is the only one of Sabers that had effort put into it, and it's good:

But putting this image on the left, flip and paste this image on the right, and this image to cover up the title on the back, that's not designing anything. THAT is textbook copy and pasting.

....anyway i already said that my phostoshop was rusty. If I had not of started like 1 day b4 the deadline there wlda been sum more heavily processed ones from me

Tho I personally feel that straight ahead "copy pasta" is exactly whats required so that u dont mess with the pure & original promo art

As I said in another thread, it's about picking the best art. Whether that is poster art or a custom design which shows some real creativity, it doesn't matter to me as long as it looks good and variety is what keeps this hobby interesting.

As for SaberTooth, well I respect anyone that has the guts to put their entry forward. I have to say though that whilst you're busy criticising his designs, you may want to work on your own. Way too much going on with the front artwork and the back, well I could probably do something similar with the back and I'm terrible at this kind of thing. Like I said though, fair play to anyone who gives it a go.

Also this whole thing was too short notice - competition shlda lasted 2 weeks at least. 1 week is waay too short, especially for a more lower profile movie.

I wasn't talking about saber, but if you want to go there, his designs are a lot better than yours. I tried to provide constructive criticism with a side of reality. If you want to improve you have to be able to take it and learn from it instead of deflecting criticism on to others.

Some great designs submitted, really like that one with the wood and the machete stuck in the front. Good luck ninja's
