Hey, I got some new NES covers that I'll be making...
Karate Champ
Spot
RBI Baseball 2 (I uploaded the raw scan, but since no one's interested, I'll do it myself then)

Here's RBI Baseball 2...

It took me one full day to get all the text sharp and the logo cleaned-up.

the quality seal is a little large. it was about that size on the original cover, but with the newer front it does look out of place. i can make the spine title smaller as well.
Also, on the spine, there should be the Acclaim company logo instead of the "Nintendo" logo at the bottom.

I uploaded a second version to go along with the first version of RBI baseball 2.

The background color was lightened a bit and the spine uses the retro font of the game title.

Ok, I may be a bit paranoid, but this is my fifth post in a row... o.o
Anyways, I've uploaded "Spot!"

This took me around a week to finished.
Also, since it would be a waste to leave the two Spot characters from the original box unused, I've included them on the spine. :)

Karate Champ, for NES, is awesome?!!? Sorry, but I tried it and I don't like it because of the weird control schemes. (Might do a review of that)

johnsprogram,

I just wanted to let you know that your covers look awesome! Your sense of design really shows, especially on the last two NES covers here, and I'd personally use them if I had the games. :)

I haven't played it since I was 10 so maybe it is not as awesome as I remember.

Here we go... Karate Champ is FINALLY FINISHED!

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/johnsprogram.retail.nes_karatechamp.jpg
This one is a bit of a screwball to polish because the color for the background is too saturated with dots, regardless for using the descreen option during scanning. So, I had to do the most life-wasting moment that I had ever done: smoothing out every letters on the back of the box.
This cover took me about a month to finish!

BTW, thanks Vicman for your compliment :D

The SPOT cover looks very good. I need to get some cases so I can start using these covers. And the case for Totally Rad makes me want to play it. lol
