Sega Master System UGC Template - Custom (lets de-ugly that damn system)

[madrocsz]

I thought that the grinds lines on the front and back of the Sega Master cover made the cover really dated.

Yeah I am not a fan of them,between the grid lines and and overall plainness of the covers. Also with them being white they tend to age like crap

 I meant w/ the gray like a solid gray for the entire box kinda like a medium gray lol

Okay, Are you looking for the colour that Wiggy used for his Sega Mega Drive cover?

[Mel]

WIP Fantasy Zone cover with solid colour spines 
Blue Spine


Grey

That light blue looks pretty dern good, seeing it with the grey vs that blue, the blue wins.

Thinking casing it in those would look pretty piffy

Still have no idea how to add images to that with the color etc going through it, suppose I need to start doing some youtube tutorials

 I have made a few changes to the cover.

Custom Template you say .... hmmm .... wonder if i should throw my hat in 

By all means 

Just trying to get an option different than the ugly retail covers. Seeing as we have a vertical or custom for every other system

Correct topic this time!
I think for the stripe spine, the color should be green, its the only remaining color:
Red - Genesis
Orange - Dreamcast
Yellow - 32X
Green -
Blue - Sega CD
Purple - Game Gear
White - Saturn

So far, I'm liking the black and grey stripes with the burgundy Master System text the best.

Yeah, I liked what mel did with the light blue but can also see a light green. Kinda up in the air on the black and grey BUT I would love to see a solid light grey w/ the master system red text etc

GAH, town gown the green a bit, that hurts my eyes.
Try a lime green, like the green GBC.

[Mel]

I thought it was a bit too bright shade of green for the template. lol

[Mel]

I think this colour for a template is bit better then the last one.

better
Some more suggestions,
I suggest using a Genesis logo font for the MS logo on your custom. Also outline, bevel or drop shadow the font to make it stand out more, and maybe go with a non shiny Sega logo on the top, and no need to have MS 2 times on the spine. Also HERE Is a B&W seal, may look better on the front with some tweaks. Maybe a texture to the green as well.
