Well I had a go at making a front cover for Hatchet Ninjaz. I tried going with a tradition japanese feel and this is how it turned out:

Image

Anyway I have to give credit where credit's due. While I made the Dreamcast logo in the upper left, the actual artwork is from a different author. The original artist is Furan Michiru and the image was found on http://www.samuraispirits.net I dont think I broke any rule by not asking permission to use his image because it was on a public domain site and I gave him credit. If this is wrong please correct me.

What does everyone think? I tried going with a very simple look while staying true to a commercial feel. BTW the kanji on the right reads 'Hatchet Ninja'. I used babelfish so I have no clue if thats right.

Thank you and yes, I'm working on a back right now. It will take longer though; there's a ton of work that has to be done to make the back cover look like a real game.

I don't like the front, especially the part at the left (maybe get rid of it in general), the font used for "Hatchet Ninjaz" doesn't seem to fit with the artwork used and the black outline of the JP DC logo in the upper right. Maybe don't use 'B.O.R.'
For the back, check the style of the back covers at DCEvolution.net - DCDayDreamer made some nice cover templates for the covers section.

The general trend within the DC community towards Japanese cover style is a great thing! I really like that :D

Oh. That really sucks. Well - I've posted Midgey's front cover and Mat's back cover over at Gamikaze. I wish I'd grabbed Mat's front cover when he posted it, so that I could have mirrored it over at Gamikaze.

I never meant it sucked. I just mentioned some honest critics and I thought your HFF covers looked far better :P

Well I feel back about only releasing a front cover so I'm gonna release the back. Keep in mind that I don't know ANY japanese. All the translations were done through babelfish. If anyone finds an error, feel free to let me know :) Another thing, I don't like the text on the side but it's the best font I have. If anyone could recommend a better font that would be appreciated. :D Anyway, on with the art.

PS curt, I have no problem if you host these on Gamikaze. Anyone else who wishes to post these elsewhere remember to give me credit. Thank you.
