I think the work looks great and exposing the original intent by the artist is cool.  

Just as a side note, my grail of grails is Daredevil 33.  I was contacted by the person that owns it.  They aren't ready to part with it at this point (and I likely could afford it with prices going like they are). but he told me Daredevil is all stats but the original is under that stats.  For it they took the original made an enlarged copy and used that for the published cover.  I would be hard pressed not to do what you did.

I think I would have to know as well. 

 

Additionally, why not make a high grade copy (ala an artist edition) print of the original art and put the paste up on that so you have an example of both.

I faced this same situation, except with a cover that had a central figure statted up, rather than down. I asked Robert Dennis to affix the statted figure to a hinged mylar overlay. So now I can enjoy the art both ways.
