Ok I liked, Twinkle Tale is taking a little longer than expected because cleaning up the logo is a major pain in the ass. In the meantime though here's some homebrew lovin'

That cover's just awesome
Did you vectorize the art or something? It looks really neat.



Btw do you mind if I post a couple of my custom covers here too?

[djshok]

Thanks! I found the artwork on Google, I think it's the official art made the developers for their Spectrum ZX version of the game (or whatever system they made it for originally). I just adapted it for the Genesis/MD cover. Also, hell yeah you should post your custom covers here, your stuff kicks ass, plus the more the merrier!

[synapse]

Well, it looks really clean, hi-res and or whatever. The whole cover has a very "REAL", official look, specially the US version.

So, my covers (not as many or as good as yours)...







All my MD games are japanese so... I took the PCB from X-men 2 (US) and put it inside a japanese shell. Vectorman's a repro, inside another spare japanese shell (I think this one was from a very bad pirate game I had).




This is my SHFYZ cover djshok likes so much :P

And this one I made by request:



Quite simple stuff, I know

[X-death]

Thanks you very much !

Hi to all ! Everyone here make great work !

I am searching for a cover and manual artwork for the fabulous SHUI HU FENG YUN ZHUAN.

synapse artworks are beautiful but everyone would like to customize their own creation.
Where we can get generic artworks to make our own cover/manual of a game ?

Thank for answering

[djshok]

Hey there, welcome to Sega-16! Unfortunately finding generic or any artwork for Shui Hu Feng Yun Zhuan is really difficult. That game is not very well known and there are hardly any pictures of it online, and almost nothing hi-res enough to use for a cover. You could check around various retro gaming forums to see if you find anything, but you probably won't find too much. You'd be better off finding someone with drawing skills to make something for you.

Well I found this, and it rocks ! Look : http://www.sega-16.com/forum/album.p...achmentid=2734

If I could get this one, I would be very happy

[djshok]

Yeah that's chokai's repro cover. You should message him about it.

Done With chockai's work, we could make a manual cover.
Concerning the content, it needs a minimal background storyline
and the gameplay (buttons, moves, spells), the number of stages, etc.
A Chinese gamer would be the better way to translate well the game's data.
As for screenshots, I google and find a lot of interesting ones, with a correct resolution.
This sort of pictures of the heroes could be used in a manual :

ice, thunder and fire. I am curious because I haven't the game yet
