Rook's Collection O' Splash Screens
-
Next up was an arcade classic, Defender. Created this splash completely in Adobe Illstrator.
-
Next up was a request for Punch-Out! for NES.
-
Shortly following Punch-Out! I did Super Punch Out. Adding the side art to make it widescreen was very fun.
-
Next up I tried a HD Chrono Trigger splashscreen. Converting the "C" clock to an "R" took hours of sketch attempts.
-
After much nagging, I made a Super Mario RPG splashscreen for a certain someone.
-
Next up: Phantasy Star for Sega Genesis. I had to paint additional nebula and the rest of the planet. It wasn't too hard.
-
Then I started learning how to use Blender, and made the Nintendo logo into RetroPie.
-
I had been wanting to make a Video Splash of MegaMan X for SNES, but I kept having trouble with the fonts. So I ended up taking a mixture between the Japanese, Rockman, and the US Megaman. The music is by 'Metal Man' from the 'Mega Man X: Maverick Rising' album over on Overclocked Remix. http://ocremix.org/album/37/mega-man-x-maverick-rising
The katakana at the top reads "レ ト ロ パ イ エ ク ス " and translates to "Re To Ro Pa I E Ku Su" or "RetroPie X"

And next was NES "The Legend of Zelda"
-
Next in line is a splash that almost no one saw. I took the Mushberry and created it in Blender and rendered this.
-
Next was a request from a user on Youtube for a custom Pokemon Yellow splashscreen with Pixel background.
-
Then I finally did a widescreen Super Mario World.
-
After SMW, I did the Arcade version of Ghouls and Goblins. This one came out great. I had to re-draw all of the areas that the original text hid. :D
-
Back to Genesis for Revenge of Shinobi.
-
Then I painted this splashscreen from Earthworm Jim. Used Paint Tool Sai and a Wacom Bamboo.
-
Then one of my favorites... Super Castlevania 4 for SNES. I suck at the game, but the title screen is so amazing. I had so much fun making this widescreen and re-creating the C into an R.
-
Next up, the Gameboy Tetris. Spruced it up a little since the resolution of the GB is so low.
-
Then the Genesis Game Genie.
-
Then the arcade Out Run. This was one of the hardest splash screens to create. The font was hard to reproduce, and I had to create the widescreen area graphics. >_<
-
Mario Paint, haha, this one was so easy.
