Nice!

Also, woot!

Okay, I do apologise for making another small (one cover) update, but I owed JDavis this one.  Sorry it took so long, mate, and sorry if it's not my best work, but here is Danny Sullivan's Indy Heat.

This box had a LOT of scuffing, plus the tape at the bottom on the front.  I cleaned pretty much everything I could but there are still some rough spots on the front...just don't look TOO close.    Normally I don't redo screenshots for the covers I make but these ones were in such sad shape I couldn't even patch them up so I ended up retaking them.  At any rate, sorry again for taking an eternity getting this one to you but hopefully you can use it.  Thanks again for the scans!

Edit:  Ack...just realised when I retyped the back that I forgot the copyright symbol next to the date on the bottom-right.  The ones here are now fixed.

Alright, unfortunately only four covers to share this time.

Isolated Warrior
I've noticed that certain pseudo-transparencies do not interpolate well, as evidenced by the bit of moiré on the gunfire portion.  A solid orange interpolates fine, but when it's mixed with that white and blue to create the opaque effect it does that no matter what program or interpolation method I use.  Not sure of any way around that.

Home Alone
This is one of the only covers I made where I didn't change the contrast on the front.  Every time I tried even a bit of contrast tweak it made the people's faces look like they had psoriasis.

Those are the only boxes I was able to pick up this month, so keep the change ya filthy animals.

Thank you.

Needed all 4, as well many of those lately posted to the site.

Sweet, Isolated Warrior!

Awesome! Daydreaming Davey! God bless you kind sir.

[WolfAlmighty]

Glad you like 'em guys!

Bonus cover!  Managed to get my hands on a box for a game that I'm sure just about everyone who owns an NES has in their possession:

The Incredible Crash Dummies

How did you guess!!!

And thank you for the cover.

Cant say I have that one!

I just realised my cheesy grin smiley didn't show up on my last post!  Now people are gonna think I was being serious! 

Ah well, you guys know me better than that already so it's all good.   This game also uses the same low-quality label on the cart that the glue bleeds through on (along with the Acclaim cart shell) like Alien 3 and WWF King of the Ring.  Gotta love Acclaim for making sure quality was their top priority.

Kudos to our main NES guy at the moment!

Very nice covers!

Joining you on that notion  

Also (I know this is not a request forum), but Shenske, I am loving your Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt retouches.  How are you doing on Super Mario Bros 2?  And can you also retouch up Super Mario Bros 1 and Zelda 2?  Not trying to be a pain, but am wanting to print out better looking covers and you are a God  

*Just a suggestion:
Can we remove some of these Super Mario Bros 3 covers from the database?

Zelda II
I ran into a snag on the Zelda II cover. I don't have a high enough quality image of the sword on the front with no writing over top of it. I'm sure i could recreate that part of the sword but i'm really going 'purist" on that cover.

Super Mario Bros. 2
I got the front all done but the back is still a bit rough. I'm hoping not to retype the back but it seems i may have to. The clouds on the back are annoying.

Super Mario Bros. 1
Someone else on our forums made a retouched version of this one. I'll have to figure out who it was again and upload it to the site.

Removing covers is WAY more trouble than its worth.  We can just wait until something else comes along thats better and we can replace it.
