In the future (once you've done my beloved Alice, of course ;)), I'd love to see you do Cinderella. With your talents, I'm sure you could actually make her (gasp!) on-model unlike every other artist Disney's hired...
Alice should be soon on the list (I have to actually go buy it, just came out here in the Uk)

A Cinderella cover which actually looks like Cinderella! wow wouldnt that be something :lol:

It's BEAUTIFUL! This makes me wish I had a printer and paper that could print something like that out beautifully so I could use it instead of the crappy official cover. :o

Yes, the covers look very good.

One thing I would change before I print them, though:
"Edition"
has two i's in it.

Wow these really are amazing. Keep up the good work. Not to make your hobby even more demanding, but if you do venture into live-action covers and want to tackle Bedknobs and Broomsticks or Pete's Dragon, that would be cool. :P

EDIT: I just looked at the Aladdin thread, and realized that I made almost this exact same post then. :lol:

EDIT again: Here's a link that still has the Aladdin cover art: http://www.ultimatedisney.com/forum/vie ... sc&start=0

I just gotta reiterate what everyone else has been saying... your covers are amazing! When I first say them, I thought you were just putting up pictures of what Disney had made for Special Editions, etc. But when I found out you did them yourself, I was blown away! The Blue Pocahontas is probably my favorite. Keep doing them, you're really good!
To all that come to this happy place: welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past, and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams, and the hard facts that have created America. -Walt Disney.

All the covers look so great that I can't decide which I like best. The sketchy BatB and Sleeping Beauty ones are beautiful in a delicate and old fashioned way, but I also love the first Pocahontas one because it's so colourful and energetic. I actually had an idea of using that Colors of the Wind picture on a cover myself, but I'm not that good with Photoshop. So thanks for making my dream cover for me!
