Lovely!  Might Play with the spine to match PAL ps2 stuff - but I can do that before I print it.  Cheers matey!

Good idea that. Had a mess about with it and have a tester to see how it looks.



Theres a PS2 one in there for comparison. Question is do we go with the all black spine to let PS stand out a bit, or copy the classic PS2 design? Thers also PS2 style text or the fancy stuff from the U.S versions. Suggestions ?

So I finally finished my Brave Fencer Musashi Case thanks to getting a printer that could print in margins. I was fortunate to find a 2-disc clear case so I could put the images from the inside of the case in. I uploaded the cover awhile ago but it hasn't been put up yet. Oh well:

Well - as i'm only recasing PS1 games that are part of an ongoing series with PS2 titles - i'm matching mine with the classic PS2 PAL look - white background, black text.  If i was planning to recase all of my PS1, I would probably go down a different route though................

Of course my other option is to redo the covers of the PS2 titles to match the nicer spines you have done, but i doubt that will ever happen  8)

I hear it can take a really long time for your covers to be uploaded depending. Just be patient, it'll get there.

Great job on it by the way. Any chance of you perhaps converting it to a horizontal version?

Probably would go with this one or an all black one myself. Anyhow, here it is. :)

Work has been killing me lately, so I haven't had as much time for fun. Here's some stuff I managed to squeeze out in my free time.

King of Fighters '99

I don't even own Darkstalkers 3, but I love the series so much I wanted to make one anyway. (Although I do own Vampire Savior for Saturn, and its basically the same game with less loading time). If fact, I wanted to make one so bad, I made two; use the second one if you don't think the first is 'classy' enough. If these ain't as good as usually, it's because I only get to work on them when I should be asleep... and on that note, it's about time to hit the hay.

Good God, Shenske.  This is amazing stuff.

I'll pay you any amount of money to come up with a DVD case for Legend of Mana.  The only one floating around the internet today is some low quality thing from CAG.

The scans are hosted, but no one has put together a DVD case yet.  It's a shame.

FYI: all the ps1 covers on this page are not made by me.  If you were refering to some of the other covers i have made previously then thank you.  I'll see what i can do about that Legend of Mana cover.

I was referring to some of the ones you had made that I use myself. 

I did a search for "Legend of Mana" and there are numerous threads just begging for  Legend of Mana cover.  Since it's apparent that the old Playstation 1 RPGs get a lot of attention around here (Xenogears, Vagrant Story, Final Fantasies, etc.) I think it's time we add Legend of Mana to the mix.  It's the only game so far I haven't transplanted over to my new DVD-covered Playstation 1 collection.

I will provide any amount of support for this endevour.  It looks like the scans are already available, just looking for some awesome dude/dudette to put it together.

I know that there are much better covers for MGS out there, but none of them were vertical. So, here are mine. Did the Shenske deal of making logo variants. The cover variant with only Snake on the front cover was done by Artgerm (Stanley Lau). Hopefully, he won't mind his image being used for covers; normally, I wouldn't worry about it, but I don't believe he is affiliated officially with MGS in anyway.

I may make a Legend of Mana cover at some point. It's on my to-do list, but my job has been sucking away time feverishly. I've also just started working on a Medal of Honor cover, but I can always put that one on hold.

7k, love the look of those MGS covers.

I'd like to put my vote in for putting off the Medal of Honor cover in favor of Legend of Mana - I think Legend of Mana would get a lot more use.
