FAMILY FEUD

All elements of this cover (with the exception of the stage image on the front) have been redrawn from scratch. Pretty simple stuff, really. Screens don't match but are very close.

Never noticed that this looks like a Master System cover.

Here you go.

This one wasn't terribly difficult on the front. Cleaning up the crease and imperfections was pretty easy. The only real difficulty I had was replicating the font for the subtitle - I resorted to hi-res traces from Illustrator. It was tough resetting all of the text on the back and actually getting screenshots since the ROM dumps for this title are bad and it's tough to actually play. But I think this one turned out pretty good, all considered.

Also, treasure trolls are NOT amazing. The box lies.

Great job. This is the coolest that 90's trolls have ever looked.

M.U.S.C.L.E.

Did this one fairly quickly since it's not complicated and I had a little time to spare. Drawing the wrestler was fun. I used segamer's Ninja Kid cover as a base for this one since it was an older Bandai title.

And thanks for all the positive comments!

MIG 29: Soviet Fighter

I'm pretty sure this is the first Camerica title to have a cover made for it. And from what I can tell, it's the first one to have a good cover scan of the regular cart, not the Aladdin version.

All logos have been redone from scratch, as well as the Camerica banner that's on the front and back.

I hate the graphic designers that put these boxes together. They're messy and there's a lot to replicate on the back. I wanted to replace the screens with emulator grabs, but I wasn't able to get two of them...and the titles on the box kinda rely on those specific levels. So I left the scanned images in there and redrew the borders and shadows on them. They're decent enough, I think. I'll try to build my skill up at playing the title and get those screens for a later update or something.

Also, I'm glad I no longer have to have that man's ass on my screen. That got old quick.
