i just finish my label for FFV but with the art style of US FF series and two more mixing jap and us... these ones are reduced... i can upload the 300dpi if anyone is interested.. also a PSD for photoshop template with nintendo brands vectorized..

also i want to start gathering all info about repros starting on snes.. to make a good general tutorial... and a webpage.. already have my hosting account as im working as a graphic designer... so my goal is a web up to date about repros building.. more general than game specific... like rules to find the perfect donor for "X" game.. and the tutorial to build it... using eproms and tsop... also hardware needed.. whats good whats not.. how to preserve your original game and label (safe removal)... how to make profesional offset printings of boxes and labels... for the purist you can easily detect a repro or counterfit of lets say dracula X.. just by looking at the seal of quality logo... there is no easy or cost effective way to print in gold ink..

right now im looking for a good programer.. not over 200$ that can burn eproms 27cxx and tsop... does it has to be tsop40 or does 32 and 48 do the job too?.. also im a bit confused with 8 bit and 16bit?... can someone post a list of best eproms and tsop to use.. in wich case each... im starting gathering all the info till i buy my programmer.. also a little explanation on 8 bit and 16bit wouldnt hurt LoL...

im really looking forward to contribute with the repro community, and focus on tsop way since seems much more cleaner and profesional.

any thoughts would be appreciated

btw im from venezuela.. so sorry for any miss spelling... im too lazy to open word right now.. LoL

They're awesome, definitely, tho I gotta say I love the SuFami style one the best (tho it was likely the easiest to put together). They're all great tho.

The first one is good except that the V at the end looks pretty stupid with being curved. Looks very good other than that though. Looks like you copied FF6, reduced the size of the words, and then used a sunburst effect that looks far better than either of the shines on the FF4 and FF6 sword.

The third one looks the best though.

thanks for your observation.. im going to fix the V.. what i did: scanned the FFII box... cleaned the logo (thank god i got an intuos table) and use the new transform (like bones on 3dmax) on CS5.. on one of the "I", mirrored and retouched.. but yes it was curved.. let me fix to see how it goes.. also fix the left part of the V to match lighting and shadows that are inverted.. just wait 10 min:D

#2 / the dragon label is easily the nicest. Job well done and good luck in finding the programmer

I'd pick the first or last one, they fit best with the designs of Final Fantasy II and III. Very nice work overall, it looks authentic, good job!

Last one is more authentic looking, but it would look even better with red-cape Butz from the 3rd pic, without the chocobo.

I prefer first one, because this chocobo reminds me of Mog from FFIIIUS cover.

I like the first one too. It reminds me of the logo for FF3 (FF6).

that was my inspiration... replicate the art style of FFII and FFIII.. for the backgruond ill try to put a dragon made out of the clouds.. lets see how it goes.. im working on secret of mana 2, dragon quest series..rockman and forte.. and some others that i scanned the sfc box.

I like the American style label. It's simple, and reveals almost nothing with great mystery.
