yes, excellent! That's exactly what I was looking for. btw, I've added more to the initial post that should be pretty easy for the most part. Contra Force might be a bit of a challenge, but I don't think the others will be.

I LOOSE TRACK ON YOUR REQUESTS ;D

Post also when added to your requests so I can keep track.
Anyway I'm just starting scanning.
I'll scan Banana Prince label for you, we do also have cover for the game whichg can be used to make the label.

Once again I am amazed by your skills. When these are printed I'll be sure to give you some major shoutouts on my yt channel.

 Let's go over these:

Bonk's Adventure - This is perfect! The one I have is severely water damaged, and this new one is bright and vibrant and will totally replace it! Thank you!

Contra Force - There's a lot of empty, black space near the top of the label. If the image isn't tall enough, perhaps you could reverse it, but the artwork towards the top and the code and made in Japan info near the bottom. I think that would look better. Thanks.

Jackie Chan's Action Kungfu - Great! This is absolutely perfect. Thank you!

Adventure Island 4 - I like everything about this except for the font you used for the word "Adventure". Perhaps you could redo the label with "Adventure" in a normal average font such as Arial? Don't forget to also change the end label. The other, official Adventure Island 1-3 use very normal fonts, and I don't want 4 to stand out like a sore thumb.

MegaMari - This is great! One small thing though - would it be possible to remove the asian text from the very bottom of the image where it says "Twilight Frontier" and that text too? It refers to the original Touhou Project PC game of MegaMari - 魔理沙の野望. Twilight Frontier has nothing to do with the Famicom hack, so if you can remove where it says that, that would be great. Don't remove the subtitle 魔理沙の野望 though.

Akumjaou Dracula - I love this! Simple, effective, perfect! One small small change I'd like is for the title to read Akumajō Dracula rather than Akumajou Dracula. Nothing else though, just that!

Metroid - Hmm I guess maybe you missed or didn't understand what I wrote before. Not a biggie. I like what you did for the most part, just needs some small tweaks to it.
The Metroid title should be higher up, appearing just below Samus' legs. Add a few stars around the black area where the two images meet there so the star field appears to 'fade' into the blackness that is the landscape around the red sky. Doing this will free up a bit more empty space between the logo and the ground.
Around the very top of the label, the red background should also fade to black, so the red isn't visible from the end label. I want the end label's background to be black and not the bright red.



As for the SMS stuff, I've not heard anything back from the post office in a while. I'll ask again when I'm there next week.



Thanks again!

Ok - those 5 updated - haven't bothered doing previews, as that's as much effort as the changes, lol.

the Contra one i originally did like that as it was close to the retail one i found on the net - but i've changed it now, and i think it looks way better.  Larger artwork, no dead space.

The others all as per your spec (I hope) - let me know.

booby kids - just the one for today - this was a tough one.  not entirely happy with the logo, but unless someone can rebuild it, it's as good as its gonna get:

top-notch!

the others - everything's fixed now. excellent work!

Metroid - WOW. This looks even better than I had imagined. You should really post a preview so others can see this label - it gives me GOOSEBUMPS looking at it.

Booby Boys - Considering I didn't even provide a raw, this is damn amazing work. I have the Famicom version, and the Famicom version art isn't even this good.

That's pretty fantastic. I really like the seamless transition between Samus and the silhouette of the titular creature. I'm very impressed.

I think there is Japanese style label floating around somewhere... I'll check my computer at home.

awesome. Now, both labels are about 100x better than their originals.

Just look at how ugly these are!

Well, I think the originals look just fine,  but if yours are damaged, then I can understand putting something fun/custom on there.  I wouldn't conceive of removing a complete/tidy label to go custom though.

I'm enjoying some of the challenges making them though.

Armadillo - best i can do without a decent scan.   Should look pretty good label size.
