New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....

I can't see the pixelation on that background image... but I'm not in charge of approval so what do I care? :/

150dpi looks like shit when printed by the way. All blurry and a lack of definition.

yup I know this from experience lol

You are not in charge that is right indeed.

The fact is that this project here is for me all about not just being printed nicely but about being the best it can be.

I agree with you there that everyhting should be at its best, but I think I would have to say it seems a little much to reject this cover. The pixelation seems so minor on the back and overall the cover looks great.

Hmmm. Maybe you're right.

I was blowing hot and cold on this one. Especially because the rest look pretty nice.

Will consider....

Cool thanks for all the comments.  I fixed some of the pixelation on the back image so it should be up to standard now.  I also made a few other small changes. Hope you guys dig it.  Cheers.

I'm not exactly the best at photoshop, but thanks to BadChad for the NES cover of this.  I have NO idea what the front top of this label looks like, but the bottom information is legit (from my very very very very very crappy $1 game's label)

BattleToads / Double Dragon Cart Label (Retail)



And thanks to  Shenske for "The Amazing Spiderman" Cover

Spider-Man (Retail)


Spider-Man (Alt.) (Custom)


Can someone create a better wording on the top? I think the Alt's top wording looks funky...

A modified version of my custom PSIV cover, now with the terrible original artwork back in its place... I wasn't gonna make this, but I saw someone on eBay selling a "boxed" PSIV with a crudely modified version of my custom cover from here.  I figure if people are gonna do that, I might as well make a nicer version, the one on eBay looked like it was made in paint.

Though for the record, I still think that artwork, while in itself not terrible is completely inappropriate for this game.

If something is "off" let me know as always

Oh sweet! The Ooze! I've been wanting a cover for this terrible game for a while now.  From that preview, it looks great.  The only thing that seems a bit off is the font of the "Genesis" logo, the letters seem a little too thick compared to actual Genesis games.  Which font are you using?  Copperplate SSi bold seems to be the most accurate one. If you need it, I can send it to you.

I think the dimensions of his case are wrong, because you can notibly tell from the cover above it

Hmmm... If you mean the white Genesis writing on the front this is in our template and is used on all the newer Genesis covers. Th template was made by shenske one of our best artists.

I've got genesis games from here printed (resized to fit actual genesis cases) next to retail genesis boxes and there's no real noticeable difference (if anything at all) between the font styles.

I Did use shenske template on it. The only thing I modified was the sega logo on the very top.
