Thank you and good call on the logo! I was just thinking of putting Konami as I noticed yours had the Capcom ( =

I like it!   :)

If I have to nitpick, I'd split "technology" in two in the first parapraph of text on the back. The spacing between the words in the line above it is a bit too wide for my liking.

Here is a Super Mario World WIP just for fun to see what I could do. Anyone out there like this so far?

Thanks for any comments/suggestions etc.

Don't know if you're about accuracy or not (Lord knows I'm not), but Koopa jr. ISN'T in SMW.

Oh I know he is not in it. I was honestly playing around with the template this afternoon.

I would love if some of the spelling mistakes were corrected in the original vertical files (mainly all on the back description part) so I may attempt remaking some of those...

For the most part though, I like this Fusion look with original art. I just could not find a nice non pixelated original SMW blue background (with the wind) for the cover, so I played around with the one above ^

I may try a Super Punch Out! Fusion cover (try to remain faithful to the original as much as possible) but I need to find a nice clean png etc of the logo.

By the way Wiggy awesome work on everything you have done!

Don't forget to plan ahead when you choose the background color.  So far you've made 2 shades of blue.  If you do that for the next 4 covers you make, you might end up with a shelf that is half blue.

Not that it has to be a rainbow or anything, but I personally would find that frustrating.  A cover template that specifically allows variety and then you end up with half of them blue anyway.

^ Agreed! I only posted a screenshot and not the file as I was not totally happy with the color and part of the cover etc...
I will try to work on a cover in this style that has not been done though, and will certainly try to plan a bit better. My only big issue is trying to find the covers in a cleaned up form that I can easily use the lasso tool etc to capture.

In my opinion it's hard to have too many options when it comes to custom covers. It's always great when the artist posts variants to their own work.

But it's looking good RainMK.

I think we're on the same page here as I've posted two versions of the one cover 100% of the covers I've posted. 

(I think I'm funny.)

Looking great guys! Glad to see some people still enjoy this template. McFlynn, I've added your Demon's Crest covers to the first post. I've also added a link to my Nintendo Fusion covers for BitBox cases, since that's where my focus is now.

I won't be making any more covers for UGCs at this time, but if anyone wants to resize/alter my BitBox covers for UGC, that's fine with me.

I decided to try a LTTP on my own and see what I could do. Anyone like this / have suggestions etc? I might be done...not sure. May offer it in 1 or 2 other colors.

What does everyone think?

I've wrapped up my Cybernator.  I couldn't find any good character art of the Valken Suits, but I did find decent quality pictures of the plastic models of the Valken Suits.  I could only find 2 completely unique pieces of the American artwork.  (The box artwork and a magazine ad.)  I used the magazine ad for the background on the front.  You can tell its slightly different artwork, but at first glance it kind of looks like I just used the box art for the front background.

I'm not happy with the quality of the spine/rear game logo. I couldn't do any better though.

^ It looks like you may have forgot to shut a layer or two off near the bar-code area. (white square)

I JUST noticed it.  This is why I normally let them sit in my done folder for a week before I print them.

No worries. At least it's a very minor easy to fix mistake. Anyone have any recommendations/suggestions on the Zelda cover? I was thinking of releasing a gold and silver version. Let me know, also great job on these covers to everyone in here!
