This is my new cover after a long long long time. The front got inspired by the cover/poster from the third Indiana Jones movie "The Last Crusade" like here: link
I've decided to redraw the rendered Pictures for the front of the characters to match the style of the indy cover. I tried to capture the spirit of the movies, when i saw them years ago and it matched perfectly with the new setting of Uncharted 3.
I used the PS3 Template from Scorpion Soldier and the 3D one i've picked up from the90skid which originally got it from throvarium (if i got right).
All in all it took me over a month to get it done, cause of the over/repainted look. I hope you guys like it. Comments are welcome.
I absolutely love that you painted over the renders, and im always a sucker for Drew Struzan-esque designs. Definite fave from me:) In my opinion though i think the plane should be made to stand out a bit more on the front, im not sure if you also painted over the plane aswell?
Very nice! The front has a nice layout and composition. The back might be a bit simple but still looks good. I like how you integrated all the logos and legal text into the cover. Good job.
The ESRB and Sony logos on the front probably aren't necessary considering the design, but if you need to have them there they might look better normal.
The back is very empty, and I don't like the description font. I suggest you find a way to fill it up more.
I really like the front design, though. It's clear that a lot of effort went into it, and it looks great.
So classic! I like it! But everyone right about the back. Maybe it need some stuffs like compass, guns or statues, bla... Anyway, you did a good job here!
I love everything about it except the ESRB and other dev logos because I'm a rule follower and always design to look official but I understand it's unique look, it's just not my preference.
You've replicated the style well. Elena's placement and face are really bothering me, for some reason. I can't quite put my finger on it, but she doesn't look right.
Damn near everything else is spot on though. Props to you for a solid effort.
Thx for your comments.
#4 I've painted over the plane, but not too much like at the chars
#6 I've used a 3D template from the90skid, which he credited to you.
#9 I always tries to get an official look too, but this time i decided against it, to get the look of Drew Struzan for the front.
#11 I've rendered the characters and use some color lightning filters and then i've painted over the characters to get the look like the Indiana Jones poster.

#13, Oh, I understand now. You didn't redraw them, you just touched up the images to look more like a drawing. (Not to belittle the work you did. It was very resourceful and creative.)
That's what I was confused about. Well done. You did a great job of capturing that style and feel.

I wish the ESRB on the front wasn't that close to the border, and that the back didn't feel that empty. Great design, otherwise.

The front is nice. It has Idiana Jones thing going on for it. I dont like the ESRB though. The back is descent.

I love Drew Struzan style posters or covers, so this is great to see.
I don't see how the characters on the cover are "redrawn," though. It looks like you just used some color/lighting filters on pre-existing images.

Great job, looks just like the Indiana Jones cover, almost identical. I dislike the faded dev logos though.

#18 thx
#19 thx, and i think, next time i should use the original dev logos, cause that's seems a problem for the most of you.

Damn that's pretty nice. I like the beige tone you got for it. The back itself though simple ish is really good.

#21 thx, yeah i left the back clean and simple, because i want to get more the feeling of the beginning of an advetnrue and get a connection to front.
