New SNES covers
thecpoc:
Oh, wow, I inspired someone! ;D Those are some pretty neat looking covers, Grumbleduke. The use of Udon art for that SFIIT cover is rather awesome, as well!
Anywho, I've been really busy lately, which is why my cover making has slowed to a crawl, but I've still found time to make a cover here and there. I've taken people's suggestions into account and I've decided I will no longer be using the ESRB ratings unless the game originally had one. :)
And, coincidentally coinciding with Grumbleduke's work, my recent submissions are Street Fighter related!
Street Fighter II Turbo

Grumbleduke:
They look great! I definitely prefer vertical cases for UGC's. The only problem i have is finding PAL/Euro scans to take relevant info from for the backs. And a lack of time of course... ;)
Jigsaw:
I'm not a fan of Capcom USA's SF art, but I share your dislike for horizontally oriented UGC boxart. I've been throwing around some ideas for a Super Famicom template (which would of course use vertically oriented art), and I hope to be able to present something soon... If there's interest I might try making US and PAL versions of the same template as well. They'd require some more custom work of course, but honestly I think a lot of western SNES boxes have pretty awful art, and with a little work (and decent enough source material of course) I think the end results could be pretty nice.

Grumbleduke:
Goin' Vertical
Super Ghouls n Ghosts
Street Fighter 2 Turbo
Cut a lot of the rear box text. It was mostly stocking filler info anyway and i prefered the piccie.
Alien 3
Super Marioworld
Mostly inspired by the Japanese version.
Super Star Wars
Well..if your goin' custom...go custom. ;) And i took on your point about 'biggest cart ever' Satoshi and ditched it from the SF Turbo cover.
