Nice work antistatic. The first one has some great color work and nice image manipulation. The second one has that gritty feel and the colors go really well together and I like it. The third one is nice but seems to be missing something...not sure what. Again nice concept on the fourth one.

They look really good mate...keep it up:goodpost:

Your covers again are very good in design aspects. I like the control you use with the front to rear coverage.

Some feedback on these covers.

Arang:
1. Good textures
2. Are there any special features for this disc? If so you may want to include them.
3. Credits, The font that you are using is not typical for credits. In looking at a few of the other covers this seems to change between the narrow, steelfish font commonly seen in credits and a regular serif font. I am not saying it is wrong, just something I noticed.

Night Watch:
1. I like the balance of the front.
2. On the reverse you may want to lower the text "Night Watch is quite..." This will balance it out a bit more for you.
3. Synopsis, Try adjusting the kerning to further define the right column border. I can see a start of this but it has an unfinished feeling to it.

The Realm of the Senses:
1. May want to add a pic on the spine
2. The spine title could be more centered. The issue with this is that some of the text will get lost in the red on the spine. I would recommend just making the text that does get lost white and use a gradation to the red text. It will be an opposite of whatever is underneath the title.
3. The picture on the front could use some more blending with the white background. Because this is so different in color is the reason it just looks a little off. If you replace some of the really light reds/ yellows with the background white it will flow much nicer.
4. The reverse seems a little empty.
5. Utilize the same credit format on Night Watch. This will be step 1 in taking up some of that space on the back.
6. Step 2 is the special features. Lengthen the box. and place above the credits. It is okay that it will only be 1 or 2 lines in height. This should give you the bulk needed to fill up the back. You may even want to increase the font size for the special features.

Silmido:
1. The blue on the characters face for the front looks too bright you may want to adjust the saturation.
2. The angle on the synopsis looks about a a degree off from the picture border. This may just be an issue with the preview, but it is noticeable enough.
3. Are there any special features that you want to include?

Well that's all I have for you. Like I said before these are very picky things on all ready great covers.
