- credit to sens for awesome template
- google for all pics
- that asian dude on the front is Jerry Hsu, one of the best
skateboarders ever, and my favorite, so i'm not gonna take him
off
- the dude on the back is a pro skater, but i forget his name
- the huge outlines are there for
a sticker effect, for a much better
example, check out VGMaster's
Banner
skate 2 is gonna be awesome, so i put all of my skills into this box and it took me forever!!
Flaws:
PAL template.
Wrong placing of Dev Logo (that area is reserved for legal info, use the Helvetica font family to match the already inputted info).
Nice concept, just doesn't have the wow factor. How about slanting the Screenshot banner, and adding the dev logos and BBFC/PEGI rating underneath?
it's great, but the effect for the skate. characters isn't a sticker one, it's a paper-outline one. If you wanted to go all the way, I'd make a white layer behind the character, then trace their outline with the pen tool, and cut.
Anyways, the box itself isn't half bad. To me though, it just doesn't deliver that skate. feeling, but it's still a well made box. There are a couple flaws like the ESRB ratings, and the EA logo by the copyright info, so I hope you fix that up ;)
I really like the style of this box. Good job, man!
I only would suggest that you get a better font for the sypnosis and for you to slightly cut down the outline for the EA logo.
A solid 4/5 and faved!
HoF Worthy, DEFINITELY! If I saw this in the shops, I'd buy it! I love how you've got those thick white lines around the characters, very nice, +fav and author +fav
#5, thanks! i noticed the flaws also and tried to correct them, but it all looks wrong after...:( but thanks for the comment!
#7, you obviously didn't read post #1...
#9, yea, the first skate's box had a paper-cut effect, but on the official skate 2 box, the logo is a slightly-peeled off sticker. so i'm guessing the new concept is stickers....or something
thanks for all the favs and congrats' guys! again i say, w00t! HoF!!

I love the back, but I'm not liking the front so much =/

Feels kinda weird to have a dude as the centre of the front when the game is about skateboarding, looks just like a spacefiller to me.

Looks very nice man. Good job!

This is great. My only nitpick is that the film strip goes completely straight on the back... Not THAT stylish.

So that's what LK looks like. ;) Anyway, not digging the tagline, but whatever, the rest is flawless. Great paint splatter effects.
