G.Darius (UK/PAL)



Taking a great JP shooter from Taito that should have allowed them access to Taito's Arcade liveries, THQ thought hard and came up with this front for the PAL version..HHMMM

G.Darius (UK/PAL/Custom)



Being as i dont have access to Taito's art collection,this was the best thing "Darius Wise" i could find.

Marvel Super Heroes (U.S/NTSC/vertical)



Marvel Super Heroes (U.S/NTSC/horizontal)



As you can see, this particular art lends itself better to the vertical style of case, had to slice up Wolverine to keep aspect something like right for the horizontal one.

Awesome work, Grumble.  These covers make me wish I had more PS1 games.  I printed off the custom cover for Tekken 3, by the way.  You really did a good job with that custom back cover.

I'm not trying to complain, but I am curious though, why did you choose to do a white PlayStation logo on the spine for the Marvel Super Heroes horizontal instead of your regular black?  Using this page of this thread as a metric, all of your covers have a black logo except the one marvel horizontal above.  I typically modify black PS logos on covers since I've only ever seen them on the Greatest Hits version of PlayStation games, and I don't really like or see many greatest hits covers...

Firstly, glad you liked the Tekken cover.It was nice doing something with a lot of art floating about the net for a custom instead of trawling through tons of crap scans. And the reason i put the white PS logo in was because i had only done one horizontal cover for U.S PS1 and had used the white logo on it. However as the black one is far more popular, i will alter it before posting. (not going to alter the imandix though!!)
And thanks for the feedback..its allways appreciated. :)

Love the Marvel cover Grumble.. Can I get a RAW of the front to make a Saturn version of it?
If you have nothing to do... Don't do it here!

Hot damn -- that looks fantastic, thanks Grumble! :) If you feel ambitious and wouldn't mind tackling some of my other requests in that thread, it'd be absolutely appreciated!

X-Men COTA (U.S/NTSC/vertical)



...and horizontal.



Had a good mess around with the horizontal version so we did'nt have to lose so much to keep the aspect.

Looks great, thanks! I few minor nitpicks on the horizontal -- if they're easy to fix, great, if not, no big deal -- :

1) The front ESRB says "Mature", but the back lists "Everyone"

2) On the spine, the Playstation logo is black and missing the white rectangle that appears on your MSH cover -- any chance this can be adjusted to match that one?

Again -- definitely appreciate the covers!  :D

EDIT: Just saw the posts between you and Xander -- I personally prefer the white logo, so is there a chance you could post the covers that way, as well? Or perhaps just e-mail me a copy before it gets altered? :)

Believe it or not, i spotted the spine and rating earlier when i first posted the imandix. Changed the cover but did'nt do the imandix so i updated that too. I am uploading stuff at the moment so i will put up some white logo's as well.

@sheep2001
If you can get some raws up mate, i will give it a go.
