Well, my sister asked me to do an illustration for her Graphics Project (which ended up being me designing the whole DVD cover), and well, bribing with a Lindt chocolate ball pack can go a very long way xD



In hindsight I really should have saved the original size. Haha xD. Well, I'll include the DVD synopsis in order to make up for my ineptitude:

"The death-gods return once again to wreak unimaginable amounts havoc on the already on edge New York, again. This is no mere rehash of the same plotline from the first movie however - there will be Mexican dancing gremlins, twice the amount of deus ex machina and in a startling new twist Inigo Montoya may actually avenge his blacksmith father, together with talking cutlass Edward Newgate he stole from Atreyu from the last installment. Never fear, for our main protagonist is still the ever-loving womanizing douche we all know and love, and the Olympian deities are still up to their questionable affairs and Pandemonium is STILL frozen over keeping Satan at bay.

Operation Ragnarok is
back in session..."

One Piece fans may recognize a name in there xD. And Lo behold at all the tropes :P

My sister wasn't very pleased with the summary, which makes it all the more worthwhile xP

Got to love those deus ex machina :). There... seems like there's a lot of stuff going on for one movie... Love the cover though. The cover makes everything better ;).

Well, thanks :D . This thread is mainly about the cover rather than the brainfart that is the synopsis xD

Amazing cover, really well done and the perspective is great :D

Yeah I know. Got wrapped up in the description I guess :D.

Anyways, I really like the effects you use in the cover. It took me a little bit to discover that the shadow was a person (or demon or whatnot). I tried to think of the possibilities of what that creature was from his scarf and pants before I realized that. Really striking by the way. The tombstone, the title, the parting of the clouds and the moonlight were great, as well. You really have a gift like other members of this forum.

On a side note, I really don't think a film with all that going on can be successful, and when I say successful, I mean any good at all. A story depicting the life of that character on the cover and some backstory would be better and the cover makes it so that I really want to know his story. All I can guess is that he's a death god, which is obvious I suppose :P.
