all are really great. my vote goes for entry 7

compliments all for great job, i vote entry 7 the color and the idea for special feature is fantastic. :thumbup:

entry 7 for me... It was a real close call with 7 and 4... entry 4 is really good too.... But a pinkish purple color for the alamo is pretty weird.....

Number 7 for me

I know the color pink is in at the moment, but at the Alamo :eek2:

all are great, my vote Entry 2: Rio Bravo

all are great, my vote Entry 2: Rio Bravo

I see no votes for Entry 2?

Voted.

#1 is my favorite here. Nice work on all of them.

My vote went for entry 8, different and interesting use of colour!

that was the old paper texture that stopped me from voting for entry 7.
thus, mine goes to entry 4.

good luck everyone! nice job!

My vote goes to nº 7

my vote went for entry 7, i like the use of the black & white and colour goes together very nicely :thumbup:

on the alamo cover the racoon hat looks like it's trying to hump his head :biglaugh:

:omg:These are an excellent group of covers.My vote goes to entry #4 The front cover just seems to draw you in with Johns head above the peaks.:thumbup:

Some good covers on display here, but theres a particular one that stood out a mile for me :thumbup:

Ah, darn it all to heck! Tarnations! I liked 'em all pilgrims! but for me it had to be #4.
It just screams classic western.

Good job to all.

Definately number 4 for me, great work!

Well done all!

Ad.

I understand your point and I agree with you.

Where I think we differ is our definition of creativity. I stick by an old saying, "If it ain't broken, don't try fix it".

Well, I must say that the entries yet again show some real talent!

My vote went to #7 for the outstanding hand coloring of the images, which must have taken ages to perfect! Magnificent job!

i like number 6...old movie old cover...well done to all!

Definitely #7...the colors, and layout is great gives a nostalgic feeling.gj man

entry 4 for me

Entry 4 The Searchers that stood out most for me but all are real nice good job.

All covers are great but # 7 is awesome with all the detail and color.

Great entries :thumbup:
Good job every one :cool:

Cheers nonini:)

well im torn between number 1 and number 7. Number 7 has the wow factor with its eye catching colour scheme, but in the end i went for number 1. Thought the more subtle shades of blue and green looked fantastic and set off the black and white images perfectly. also it suited the film better and number 1 just screamed out gone with the wind. All were great entries, just those 2 stood out for me.

I was stuck on either 4 or 7. The only issue that swayed my vote was the spine pic on four. It seems to not fit the rest of the set. However, I really like the originality of the cover. Or maybe it is just the artwork that really brings the cover up from the rest. So, instead I went with seven. I think it is an excellent use of color. The reverse is a unique layout that fits quite nicely.

No 7, has to be..

whilst some of the others stand out, number 7 just has the edge.

I love Quiet Man No 1. Well thought out colours and this is why. Reading up on this the film is a 1950's black & white film which the artist has kept in the cover for posterity but then just slipped in colour to modernise it and bring interest to it without losing its originality...........love it!

voted here:thumbup:

Sorry guys the polls were closed when I finally got back on But my vote would have been for #6. Why? The others looked great but way to up to date and modern. #6 had a real feel of antiquity and form to it. If he was around in the 50's they would have definitely hired him to do their cover back then it was superb and made you feel like a real cowboy fan. Great job 6!

tough 1 but my vote goes to Entry 4
