Book Rebinding - The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Part 3
In this final part of this series, I design the cover art for the clothbound hard covers of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy (German Edition).
Like I said in the previous video, these were inspired by the Extended DVD Box Sets.
I drew the artwork for the back covers on Krita using my XP-Pen drawing tablet, then uploaded the designs into Cricut Design Space, where I assembled the covers.
I found a cool Lord of the Rings inspired font on Dafont.com which I used to create the titles. Then I weeded the vinyl for literal hours. The Black Speech of Mordor nearly killed me.
Also: Thanks, J.R.R. Tolkien, for creating an emblem of your initials, so I didn’t have to weed out your entire name!!
Let me know in the comments below if you have any questions or suggestions. Constructive feedback is very much appreciated! :)

Excellent idea and beautiful work! Love everything about it, from the lettering details to the custom artwork back covers and the map endpapers. And, if you want to minimize wrinkling when gluing the endpapers to the covers, a good idea is to start from the center of the paper towards the spine and smoothing it out from there towards the edges in a sort of radial pattern. Hope that makes sense :)
Absolutely beautiful.
So calming to watch (and listen). 😊 Great job!
So beautiful!
Amazing work! Thanks for sharing.
Nice to see the finished product! I hope to see you do more~
If i only could like it twice
Awesome they look great!
Can I ask why you didn't glue the spine into the cover?
They turned out so beautiful. You have a very lucky friend 🖤
This is truly some incredible work you've done with these books, such talent. I had hoped they would've been in english so I could really admire this work but I get that you're probably from Germany and, thus, have to do them in your language. Do you charge to do stuff like this or is this a passion thing, something you just like doing?
