I have a big favor that I have to ask, our game club recently just bought a bunch of repro / hack games, we need some covers to cases these games. I am able to locate most of it in this website, but I still have a lot that I cannot find on this website. Below is the list for NES:

At this moment, any cover art will work for now. Thank you very much.


This should go to the "Requests" Forum..  If you look around hard enough, I know I've seen workable covers for a fair share of those games..

Really? I have looked really hard for those games already. Can you please link some of the covers to me and I will look one more time. Also, I will put this in the request forum. Thanks.

You need to pay for those, I am looking the cases under this website. Thanks.

We need source material to create them from.  I whipped up this cover, but I don't have anything to fill in the back.

This is awesome, I'll try to get more source material for you. Let me grab some text to fill the back. Thank you very much, if we can get this done by today, my club will be very happy. If you create all of them, I can definitely pay you too, not a lot, but it is a way to show appreciation. Thanks.

The back can be something like below:

Thanks for moving this to the Requests Forum.  I don't have time to create custom covers today.  Anyone interested here is the Request forum link.

Yeah, anyone who can help would be greatly appreciated. I can also pay you in a small amount of cash for creating the case for me, like StoneAgeGamer did for bitbox. Thanks.

GOLF GRAND SLAM

It's been a while - a change in my assignments at work (where I normally have the time to do these) has left me without a lot of time to work on covers, but I'm still doing what I can.

I bought this game on eBay for scanning purposes. The bottom was crushed more than I thought, so I had to piece the grass in from another source, therefore it's not perfect. It's workable, though.

The logo and back were rebuilt from scratch. Screens are close but not retail accurate.

Retail Custom:



TCP-Style:

Here are a few previews of what I'm working on currently:

Rollerblade Racer: Just got this one in the mail yesterday. I've got the logo done but I need my tablet to re-do the patterns/designs in the background, so I'll work on that later tonight. The image of the skaters is low-res, so it kinda looks like butt, unfortunately.



The Simpsons: Bart vs. the World: Another one I bought to do. The cover is going to be totally re-drawn. I've made some progress, and I'm really enjoying working on it.



Videomation: I haven't done much with this one lately, but the intention is to re-draw the whole cover. Shouldn't be too tough, just time consuming. The little pixelated swath below the logo is taking longer than I thought.



Blaster Master: We have a TCP-style one on here, but I'm redoing this one for a more retail look. I have a hi-res logo in place, and I redid the main sprite on the front with what my skills permit. Only catch is that I can't make the pixelated stuff look like what's already there, so it'll be a bit different. I'll share once it's done, in case anyone wants it. I might be able to take the existing cover and fudge a retail spine out of it, at least. We'll see.

@oobgarm: Please always try to clean the artwork as much as possible also on the artwork you are not able to rebuild. A few of the covers I looked through today won't make it to the site due to the front art not being cleaned or other small things. Normally I fixed those up myself prior to upping but I haven't got the time anymore.
Some of your covers especially those were you were able to redraw almost everything look next to perfect.

If you can shoot me a PM with what you found, I'd be grateful.

I am, just swamped with work..   I have NAMCO Pac-Man, and possibly Deathbots and the MAXI 15.  OOBGARM was working on several projects, but is also busy at this time. :-/
