So since I couldn't find any high quality scans of The Lost World for Genesis I went ahead and started creating my own from almost nothing.

That's what I've gotten so far, was wondering what you guys think, it's not done obviously but I'm getting close.  The front is completely done and all I've got to do is the back cover.  Which I'm about 75% done with.

So feel free to critique and let me know what you guys think.  :D

I used these pics as references by the way:

Well obviously you are missing screenshots... ;D

Anyway what I can with see whit my crappy computer I like, although the main backtext is bit too rounded (soft) for my taste.

Good work.

Yeah that's just the font they used on the original.  Took me a while to find the font too, had to upload the text to find out what it was.

I'm not sure if it has a drop shadow or not though because there are no scans of the game better than the one I linked.

And I left the screenshots for last :P (Gonna have to remake them with in game sprites).

This looks really good but I have a little suggestion: The yellow and black stripe at the top should stop at the red template. I know the retail pic you are basing this on goes onto the spine but it would stick out next to the other Genesis games that have the red all the way to the top on the front and spine.

I'm personally going for the full retail look, but I can totally make a second version where the caution tape stops before the red.
