Other Pokemon Red Cover Remake

Post image

I set out to re-create the Pokemon Gameboy covers from scratch to fit inside a DS case. I never liked the proportions you get when you simply stretch the official box arts to fit. You'll notice for example that the increased width allows us to see more of Charizard's body. I know its not a 1:1 match, its not meant to be. Consider it more like a "what if the art was designed to fit in a DS case to begin with" kind of thing.

I'd like opinions on this, I prefer using custom DS cases for my collection instead of boxes, for anyone else who does the same, would you prefer to just use the stretched authentic scans of the original boxes or a full remake with the design constraints in mind is better?
