Pick a cover for my custom SOR2

A while ago I picked up a really beat up cart only SOR2 for $1 at a flea market. The thing was totally trashed, you could hardly even tell what game it was until you plugged it in. I figured it'd be a fun project to refurbish this great game. So I took out the PCB and put it into a much nicer cart case and made some custom covers cand cart labels for it.

The problem is, I ended up making 2 and now I can't decide which one I want to use. Ideally I'd use both, but that won't exactly work.

So...

I'll post before and after pics after I decide on a cover.

I voted Version B. They're both great, but version B has slightly better style, in my opinion.

Voted B cause the animation looks more 90's with its shading and more detail on the characters, A is really good to, but just to modern of animation to make it fit the genesis covers.

B, because on that pic Blaze and Axel seem to have seen the sunlight and Max doesn't have a big tumor on his shoulder. It does get a minus for Skate's race change though.

i can't decide. max looks wayy cooler on version A and he's the most important thing about SOR2. version A is sort of drawn better but it's a little too anime in style, the style of B fits the game more. Also on version A i would move the "16 meg" logo to the other side of max's head, where there is more room... that is if you use A

This. I would have voted A anyways, I don't like the art style on B as much.

version b. A is too anime-ish for me. Which doesnt fit SOR at all.

B is MUCH nicer!

Version B. The art in A is cool, but I'm not too fond of how Blaze looks in it. That and the overall layout is just much nicer in B.

B. If only I had Blaze seducing me on my cover. The first one looks more like Street Fighter Alpha or something.

ugh, I don't like both of them. I'll had to go with B.

... now I'm really starting to hate those covers! They look all wrong to me.

B, holy shit Blaze is SMOKING in that one. How do you print these to make them look good, or is that a trade secret?

is there a wallpaper of version b pic? wouldnt mind that as my desktop

Honestly, the original case art is better than either of these. That's not an indictment on your work shok, because you are awesome and very talented. But I just feel that neither of these covers really fit the game very well. The second one is definitely more appropriate style-wise, but I think everyone looks cooler in the first one. What the hell happened to Skate in the second version?

THIS!

Original artwork may not be that good but it really fit game very well, because it has american 80's and 90's likeness to it and it's not anime or manga, which is reason why.

Those two version really didn't made much sense to me due to some reasons.
