MST3K Fake Criterion covers

[BJ]

I'd forgotten how insane Delta Knights is, complete with English speaking Vikings in the 15th century. I'd love to know where and when this story is supposed to be taking place.

Nice.

And here's the last one, using Mitchell's style for the SFO cover he made. Thanks to all who took the time to look at these, and for all the kind comments.



Here's a collage as well, and a wallpaper I made to give room for my icons on my windoze computer. It's a little busy, but it's nice to see them all lined up. I'm not sure why there's no thumbnail for the first one. It looks like the second, but there's no black bars and its about 4 times bigger.





Finally, I made a few mosaics out of the covers and mst photos. They're too big to post to imageshack or photobucket, so here are the samples. If anyone would like them, just say so and I'll zip them into a rapidshare file or something. Captain Joe seemed to come out the best. I think it's due to his drinking, and the extreme self confidence his Joe hat gives him.

Bravo, sir. I say again: fantastic work.

Whats the back story here? Why did you start doing this? Because man, you have a gift.

that's a good question. my guess is, he does covers for government proposals or some such, a day job working in photoshop or illustrator.

For the future generations, my takes on the Criterion covers, which I submitted originally for the contest (except the Agent for H.A.R.M. one, which I made before the contest just for fun).

Thanks for adding those. I thought they were excellent (especially Agent for Harm), but didn't feel right throwing them into this thread myself.

As for Zomburg's question, I only did it because I enjoy it, and the topic inspired me. I love making custom covers for my own discs, so this seemed like a way to learn new techniques and have fun. I actually have no professional graphical arts experience, and don't even have access to Adobe Photoshop.

In fact, the only reason I came here tonight is because I destroyed my ribs surfing today, and I'm spending as much time sitting upright in one spot as I possibly can. That means visiting every website I know of.

A few more.

These are awesome, you are very talented. Thanks for sharing them. I've been squinting at the collage, so if you feel like posting any more of them, they're appreciated.

Browsing through Criterion's site I got inspired again.


I based this Master Ninja in the Criterion cover for Sanjuro.


This I based on the cover of The Most Dangerous Game, since the two movies have the same story.


This one was inspired by Criterion's Josef von Sternberg collection. Apparently Edgar G. Ulmer has some cult status, so I thought Criterion would just go ahead and make a whole Ulmer collection of his late movies.


And finally a minimalistic cover for Gunslinger.

Great stuff, love the Invasion and Rocket Attack USA especially.
