Glad you like it.  :) Im almost done with Gargoyles so i will put them up if that pans out ok. The only scan of the front i could find was a Moby special so as you can imagine, it was pretty low res. I have run it through filters and stuff and cleaned it up a lot. Preview soon. ;)

OK. Front is a Moby scan cleaned and filtered and all text retyped. Back is pretty similar to the original one but i could'nt get the original pic or anything similar to it, so i used a little 'artisitic license'. ;) It will probably do until a good original scan turns up. If you like, i will post em up tomorrow when i upload some of the other stuff from the queue (gotta go through it yet).

Thanks buddy, I love them.  It's very much appreciated! When you get around to add them, would you mind doing a Turrican cover with the black/grid template. That way it will stand out more from the Mega Turrican box and it suits the art better. If not. no worries, the fact you put your time into making these covers is more than enough.

On a side note, the following games are the only ones I still need to finish my personal perfect Mega Drive set. Does any of these come in cardboard boxes? If so keep that in mind for future requests :D

1)       Mega Probotector (aka Contra Hard Corps)
2)   Skeleton Krew
3)   Sparkster
4)   Splatterhouse 3
5)   Streets Of Rage III
6)   The Punisher
7)   Thunderforce III

I hope the moby front is good enough because usually mobygames scans are utter crap and extremly low res.....
2 + 3 = 23

thanks.  Quick question.  Do you guys ever want the original .PSD files in case you want to change or tweak anything? (I'm looking at you Kaiser, if you want it just let me know)


Edit:  sorry that I did not post this in the New Genesis/Megadrive thread.  That was a brain fart.

Turrican



In the black grid style. I originally thought it would not suit this template but my opinion has changed. I think it looks ok.

@Sheep

If you can put up the scans of the original box, that would be great as its non region and the ones i have done are very Mega Drive. ;)

No, I don't need the .PSD. Thanks for the offer though.

Found this scan in the raws section (scanned by EagleEye). Vector Magic cleaned it up nice, only had to touch up a few things. This is the european cover.

T.Y  :). You mean you dont like the original with 'Megaman' on it?  ;). I used to have the MD version but traded it in when times where hard. I remember it being pretty good but it sorely missed the astonishing soundtrack from the Amiga version. Used to load that up just to listen to the intro music...the good old days eh!!
