The Atari 5200 Label Thread!

Recommended Posts

Hey Atariboy2600, you make the best labels IMHO. Where do you find all of that artwork? Most of the time the stuff I find out there is pretty low-rez, and turns out blurry.

 

Anyone know a good place for the artwork?

What?! No Jaws in 3-D?!

 

"Just when you thought it was safe to go back playing Atari 5200"  I remember seeing a old Atari arcade game flyer 'Shark Jaws' and wanted to do a Jaws labelart way back on this Thread Post and gone back a redo the first Jaws label plus three more Jaws films.

Sorry.. I can't draw the swoop of the ship coming out from the Crab Nebula in the back like I wanted, so I borrowed one from somewhere else:

Last night I made a Blaster label for the 5200 game that some ask me to do but I found out that they was not much of any images to use from the real arcade flyers so I had to draw it from scratch using only GIMP and any arcade screen shots I seen of the game so I drew both the backdrop, the ships and spaceman and I only used the real logo title from the Blaster flyer and well here's the label hope you like it. :D

 

PS if anyone wanted it in high BMP format you cna use any paint program to turn in or email me and Ill try to send it or somthing.

Fantastic, Atariboy2600! I was playing around with a label for Blaster a while ago but never was happy with it. There just isn't any good art work for it on the cabs or in any of the flyers.

I figured is Atari changed their color scheme for the 5200 (liek they did with the 2600 switching to red) it might look like these:

Very nice. ET would be a nice conversion for the 5200.

 

Can you do Black Widow? We might need one soon.

Can you make up labels for Frisky Tom, Jum Pong and\or Jr. Pacman? Also maybe a different Castle Crisis? I like the labels with the fat 5200 text in the middle if you want any direction but your the label man and I'm just a monke asking questions..lol.. :)

Well I made a novice atempt at a Frisky Tom label. It's censored for this board as I don't think nudity even of the cartoon type would go over well but I do have an un-censored one if anyone wants it just PM me and I'll PM the label back to you, but ya here it is.

 

 

 

@Atariboy: Please make a better label than mine as you always seem to find great images to work with and I'm making a Frisky Tom cart soon so I need a decent label :)

Another label request, if you feel so inclined Atariboy2600, is for Xagon. It's going to be tough because there was never any artwork for it since it was a public domain game. You would have to either draw something up from the games graphics or just use your imagination.

 

Basicly it's a ball with a baseball cap on. Maybe you could even do something cute like put 'Realsports Baseball' on his cap.
