Recently I have obtained these raw images from a good friend (scanned them).
Can someone make a good artwork cover and label cover from these?
Here are the raw images:

Dimensions are workable but if you can ask your friend to rescan at either 600dpi or 300dpi (minimum) and use a magazine to flatten out the art. I'll knock this one out the ball park for you if you can get that done :)

Sadly my friend doesn't have the game :(

So, do you think you can create something "good" from that covers?

Your friend got you scans of the game, but doesn't have the game, or access to it long enough to rescan? What an interesting circumstance. Oh well. can't be helped. I'm sure someone could churn out a halfway decent cover with what you provided, but it won't be "Cover Project" quality.

I was thinking the same. If I'm gonna put the effort in to make the cover then it might as well be the best quality to share with everyone (tcp/web).

I think that the cover scans are great. perhaps you're not a good enough artists to repair it?

"Cover Project" quality? do you need glasses? 90% of the covers on this site are so awful. The raw scans are the only thing ya got going. The wanna-be artists here are just photoshop touch-up goons. Photoshop does the work. Most of the covers here do not even contain the proper fonts or screen captures yet they are labeled as "retail." and the colors are WAAAAAY off. calibrate, please.  ::)

I thank you for posting the scans, mate. I've been searching high-and-low for those scans. I think that they are awesome. I hate the fact that I had to join this cover reject website to post a thanks. Tip for admins: get a thanks button. jeez.

I'm going back to cover galaxy ...

Lol that guy made my day. You know you're doing something right when people recognize what you do, download our work and then attempt to hurt feelings.  :'('s of joy lol

But the part that he did not point out is that those are 96dpi scans and even covergalaxy IIRC holds a 300dpi standard too.

Wonder what made him go ballistic in the first place, as that is his first post. ;D

Probably just a spammer without a cause.

They do too. The cover scan would have been rejected on that site too  ::)

I love it when newbies who have never even made a cover assume they automatically know more than our regulars on the site. It amuses me  ;D

EDIT: This wasn't directed at you SimonBelmont2 .... i was referring tojackster0xh

As everyone else stated the images are not good enough quality. Someone may be able to make a custom out of higher rez images. Would that be acceptable? Also, your request stated that you want this label for the megadrive, what region in specific? (Euro, japan, etc)
