Wanted to get this one done first. I have a couple days off of work so this is just the first.  ;D




Nice preview. Can't wait to check the real cover.
2 + 3 = 23

  • Think off-center.
Its in the same linki sent you before in the box folder tik.

Meanwhile...I was looking and was surprised that I didnt see this one here...So here it is


Thanks to frizzlefryd for recently hosting it. I also plan to make a custom one without the controller offer on the front.



I would like to finish this one. KaiserWave if you still have this one can you rescan it (with no adjustments plz  ;D)? The original had some of the back cut off.

Yay!, I'm helping  :)
Cover looks great, I should be adding some more scans sometime today/tonight if nothing come up.

I found another site that allowed me to upload/download the large, untouched, scans of the covers I need.  This ones seems to lack the multiple, uber annoying, ads that the filefactory download links had...

Primal Rage Front Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/Q418F3N5YSHKQV8
Primal Rage Back Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/QTTDLPSXFQ9QIVN
Monopoly Front Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/TZBPXJKLMIWXZAE
Monopoly Back Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/85GQ7UVL9KFYTJN

I don't mean to come off as pushy or anything... Just figured that if someone is able and willing to make these two covers, they might appreciate download links without all the ads (and they appear to go much faster as well).

Sonic & Knuckles


Available in both UGC format, and Standard Genesis Case Format.
They are up on my Box account (See my Signature for the Link).

Feel free to add em, and any others I've made, to this site, if ya like them.  ;)

These variations look similar the custom cases for Sonic 1, 2 and 3, especially the Spines.
Now Sonic & Knuckles doesn't stand out / look weird on my shelf, nestled with my other Sonic Games. XD

Awesomely done.  Me thinks I'll print this one out and replace the other S&K cover I have.  Thanks.  :)

Sonic & Knuckles

I literally JUST made a case exactly like this, except at a slightly different size. I adjusted the insert to fit one of the extra-thick EA Genesis cases, that way there's no bulge when you close the case, and the EA cases requires just a very slight modification and the S&K cart won't move around like it can in a regular Gen case.  ;D

I also made Sonic & Knuckles covers a few pages back, they just haven't been uploaded because the uploads are broken.  Mine are technically customs though because that whole front cover has be redone, I also used the Japanese style logo.

If you don't mind my asking, what did you re-size it to to fit the thicker EA case?

Think you could put the sonic & knuckles head on the spine like your Djshok version?

Well, to be honest, it took a good bit of hack-job re-working of the original Genesis template. Basically, I made the cover the same height, but 11 inches wide. Then, using the exact copied backs and fronts of the original covers, I pasted them each to opposite sides of the image, that way I would know the size that the spine needed to be. Once I saw the gaps between the fronts and backs, I basically re-made the red striped spine from scratch, starting on the cover side, and moving back. When I printed it out, I had to cut a total of maybe 1/16th of an inch off of the sides to make it fit. If you would like, I could send you the PSD file that I used to make the EA-sized cover. The work is pretty rough, I warn you, though. That file is ugly and was made for my eyes only. :D

EDIT: Also, how the eff did I miss this re-working!?

The back on this thing is beautifully re-done, although I think I like the original art for the front cover a bit more. Still, really awesome. Now I need to re-print my custom cover to use this beautifully re-worked back. ;D

Thanks for the offer. Unfortuantely, I don't have Photoshop or any sort of editing software beyond the paint program that came with my computer.  Don't do much editing and whatnot.  Is there some type of program I can download for free that would open the file so I could print it?

Also...

Is anyone able to make the Primal Rage and Monopoly covers?  I have no idea how to do them myself and would very much appreciate the help to complete my Genesis game covers.

If there's anything I can do as far as re-scanning or re-uploading the raw scans, please let me know.  The latest links I posted are rather large files sizes (scanned at a high dpi to capture the details of the covers), so I don't know how much of a pain those might be to work with and would be happy to re-scan if needed.

No problem if it takes a while, I can be patient; just let me know if you are able and willing to work on them and if there's anything I can do on my end to help.

IrfanView works well with psd files (though the psd must be saved in max compatibility mode).

You want the thick-EA case version of Sonic & Knuckles? I could just upload it and send it to you if all you want to do is print it. I finished editing the back so it has the newly re-done back, but still has the classic front on the cover. Let me know if you want me to upload it, and I'll do it next time I'm at my computer. ;)
