Happy New Year guys!

Check the NES Raw Scans forum.. Just upped scans of Bomberman II & Pro Sport Hockey!!!! :)

Hopefully somebody can make some nice covers from those!
(Shout-out to "SuperBobby" from NA who was kind enough to scan and provide these!)

- I wasn't happy with the Mega Man cover variations so I did a hybrid of both the retail and tcp.

Do you have an Empire Strikes Back nes raw scan I can work from? The TCP cover available for download isn't very good.

Okay, I'm not sure who realfrank is, but thank you for the Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout cover that was uploaded yesterday!  I just got the game in the mail today and was going to be making a cover for it, but now I don't have to!  Cheers, and great work! :)

Alright, I finished up Pro Sport Hockey, but as I feared the scans had a bit too much moiré so it won't really be site-worthy.  It should serve as a decent placeholder, however.  I'll start working on Bomberman later today so with any kind of luck that one won't suffer the same fate.  Cover art that is taken from a photograph like this one always seem to be at the biggest risk for moiré.  I remember having a similar problem with my Casino Kid II cover a while back.  Bomberman is drawn art so maybe I can make it work.

Edit:

Bomberman II - Still some moiré, although not quite as bad.

You are most welcome!  I'm glad you like 'em!  Thank you (and SuperBobby) again for getting these scans! :)

Now, as I mentioned before, I ordered a CI of Arkanoid the other day.  It just arrived yesterday so I was anxious to see what I could do with it as far as making a cover.  For those who don't know, Arkanoid never came in a regular-sized box since it was only sold with the Vaus controller, so this is essentially my first attempt at a custom, although I (obviously) used the original box art, label art, and manual as a guide.  This was almost completely redone from scratch, so hopefully you guys like it!

Cheers!  I just noticed a spelling error, though, so if you downloaded it before you might want to just delete it.  The correct version is now up.

Oh indeed.  It's #2 on my list behind F2 for ones I want a cover for.  It's simply too awesome of a game to have to sit without a cover.  Hopefully we'll get scans sometime soon!

We have a general NES cover art thread. Please do not clutter the board with extra threads for normal style nes covers.

They all go in the appropriate thread!

Moved!

OMG! I'm so sorry!

You know, I was going to put more that just regular covers there. That way I could have all my work in one place. but since you put it that way. I'll just take my post down completely.

There is a nicer way to say and do things.
What are you looking at? You think baby's don't like video games? THEN YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT BABIES!!
