WIP: Summerslam 09 v3 retro

And another updated look, now as you can see the background has been added, wasn't all as easy at it looks.

Also a little something, is this WIP of the v3 Summerslam 09 cover will only be shown off here, of course until its finished, then it will be shown on the WCF.

WIP: Summerslam 09 v3 retro

Summerslam 2009 custom retro based on the Summerslam 1988 cover.

WIP: Summerslam 09 v2 retro

In case you don't know this is the early stages of my Summerslam 2009 custom retro, based on the Summerslam 1990 cover.

WIP: Summerslam 09 v1

Here is the first preview I'm showing, its not the first I've made, but many more to come. And yeah its V1 meaning its version 1, I will be making at least a few versions.

Next project I've started...

Yep thats right, I've started on my Summerslam 2009 custom cover. In the coming days & weeks I'll be showing off some WIP/s of it. And I'll be showing the most WIP/s with this cover, then any other I've done, so look forward to alot of looks at this cover in its early stages all the way to when its finished almost a month from now.

Video I made..

Coming soon....Summerslam the complete...

Thats right. Coming soon this summer I will be releasing Summerslam 1988-2008 all original covers & dvd converts. More info to come.

Old WIP: Royal Rumble 2009

I never shown this off before, it was one of my first ideas on the Rumble 09 cover to put 8 wrestlers on the front and I was going to have some city like background or something weird. I dunno but I never went past this on this cover, my ideas changed not long after I made this.

The Bash 09: start to finish

Here I'll show what I started with all the way to the finished cover for my Bash 09 retro style cover.

Here is the original Bash 88 cover that this cover is based on:


Now I didn't follow suit and use the same logo, so I edited another classic logo one in which was used for this Bash 86' cover:


I didn't create my own logo or anything, went with this one from psdprotolcol



Then I started...


My first idea was to have Rey on the front, because it looked best in terms of how the original looked, because I wanted a pic with ropes and what not like the original.

But that to me just did look right, so I went with this..


So after adding Orton and HHH (psd came from again psdprotolcol) I had to get the font looking right, that wasn't to easy.

From there it was on to the spine, and getting it to look like the real thing, color wise anyway.


Then I added another PSD to the back, I did that cut my self.


Now the real back bone IMO to making this cover look good at all is the overlay I used, in other words the texture. You can find it here at deviantART CLICK HERE for the texture.

After all that it was on to adding the match card, doing thats never fun, like getting it all lined up and looking good. And placement, its never fun.


Not much done here just some small tweaks..



And here it is the finished cover in all its glory, you can find a link to the full cover on the WCF forums.

Survivor Series 2008 custom cover

This was maybe my 3rd WWE custom cover for WCF, at the time I thought the concept was great, but it didn't turn out so great now. It has some cool old school traits to it.

WIP: The Bash 2009 custom

As I said I would show off my Bash custom cover here first.

SO anyway just started on this late last night, one day before the PPV, unless I work real hard on it tonight, and I don't think I will, it just wont get done until some time next week, I'd like to say well before the weekend, but who knows. Check back for many more previews for this cover.

WIP: Summerslam 1989 Custom

Not alot changed other then I got the sun part looking much better, and a friend recut the Summerslam logo CLICK HERE to get that full logo, many thanks to Omen for the cut.

Delaying one to start another...

Instead f starting my Bash 2009 cover like I had planned instead I'll be starting on a Summerslam 1989 custom cover.

WIP: Royal Rumble 1990

Not many changes made besides cleaning up the back

Early Progress of it:
Preview 1
Preview 2
Preview 3

Old WIP: Wrestlemania 13

This is what I almost went with for my Wrestlemania 13 custom cover, it was more like the official poster for the event, but this is how the cover ended up looking Click Here

And also the front wasn't finished, nor was the back even close to being done.

So which is better? Wrestlemania 15 VHS covers

Here are 2 covers, one is sort of rare, the other is not. One is the official WWF Wrestlemania 15 VHS cover of the PPV, the other is the WWF Wrestlemania 15 highlight video cover. IMO the highlight video has a way better front.

Highlight video:


PPV video:



Hmm...Maybe this someday could make for a nice custom cover??

Full Cover: Survivor Series 1989 VHS

Here's a tough one to find WWF Survivor Series 1989 the VHS cover, I happened to have it, found it off ebay long ago, though I own the cover and have a HQ scan of it, this is not HQ, but better then anything else.

WIP: Royal Rumble 1990

Got quite alot done tonight on the front, to a while to find good pics of all 28 other wrestlers on the front, I think the idea I started with is turning out to look pretty good. Still a ways to go with the back, and the front isn't even finished, mainly I need to get a better font, and get the right Coliseum Video font ect..

Full Cover: Royal Rumble 1990 VHS

A cover VERY hard to come by or find online. I happened to scan this when I owned the video, I have no idea where the HQ scan went, but I sold the video years ago so, this is all I got. Better then nothing
