bLAZER Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I didn't find any box art for Intellivision so I thought I could fix that myself. I've gathered scans for about 95% of the games (there are only about 120 of them) and I'vel started to remove watermarks and "digitally remaster" (remove scratches, stickers, jpeg artifacts etc.) them. So WATCH THIS SPACE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJoneK Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Awesome. Can't wait to see what you can cook up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WallyWonka Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I added some box art images of Intellivision games to the FTP like a week ago if you need some for your project. There are many overlay images included in that too. I hate Moby Games watermarks!!!!! Is there any way to get rid of those?Anyway, the ultimate challenge is finding HQ boxart for ColecoVision games, but I am more of a Intellivision fan anyway. ColecoVision sucks. Good luck with your current project, I'll look out for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've removed most of them already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bLAZER Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Here's a comparison between an original scan and a digitally remastered one. We'll see how much time I'll have for the other ones. Watermarks and heavy scratches will at least be removed. Some boxes are obviously harder to clean than others. I've removed most watermarks and refurbished a lot of things so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bLAZER Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 Well...of course everything is freehand...but I've made a bunch of texts, logos etc. in vector that I reuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJoneK Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 VERY NICE job. Can't wait to see the finished project. Also, it would be nice if boxart is kept at it's highest quality on the FTP and not resized for smaller filesizes. Some of the earlier box sets are really small and useful only for thumnail viewing.

Bigby Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Blazer, incredible cleanup on that boxart!I would like to go through some of the Amiga Boxart and do the same. Any tips on how to proceed? I have a fair knowledge of Photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bLAZER Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Glad you like Bigby,Some tips:Use http://new.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ to find out what a font is calledWork in layers in Photoshop and work only with PSD-files.Try to remake as much as you can in vectors (never rasterize fonts and create boxes etc. in vectors) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
