So, I made this box. Pretty cool eh? Inspired by 7sk's minimalistic boxes, and I'd like to thank 7sk for lending his new anthology template. Warning, the box is huge!!
I'd also like to thank all that critiqued in here: link
Nice to see a fresh and original SMG design, something different from the same old Mario and pals flying through space with an assload of planets everywhere.
#5 thanks, that was my problem with mario boxes in general. Too many freaking renders. In fact, before this, I was thinking of making a satire with the NSMB logo, leave a crapload of character renders with a red background, and subtitle it NSMBW: 400 Renders Behind a logo. :P
#6 Thanks man! I seriously don't see what makes you think that though. :p
Funny story. I was talking with TMRD like a week ago about how I wanted to do a box where the only thing on the front was a very simplified artistic version of Mario, sitting on a planet, Yoshi by his side, staring up into the empty space around him, where the stars form the image of Peach. A few days later, I see this WIP thread. This is truly a Masterwork, beautiful, simple, exquisite. It grabs the essence of Galaxy by the horns and throttles it into submission. And the sheer fact that you were able to do all of that with so few lines is truly the mark of a masterful design. Incredible work. Though I still stand by what I said before, that it would look better without any type of template at all, and a differently-colored presentation.
#18 Dang, wow. What a coincidence. Actually, I've been meaning to make this box since you heavily criticized my previous SMG box, the hardcore one. You said you wanted to see something that truly captured the essence of Mario Galaxy, the sense of adventure and friendship. I think I did it. :p
#19 Haha, I'm not surprised! Koopa is many things, a lier is not one of them.
#20 Thank you!
#21 I love making Mario boxes dude, so this just encourages me to make more. Thanks!
#22 Nope believe it or not, I hadn't even thought that this design is similar to Kirby's Epic Yarn until you brought it up. I was actually inspired by neon signs at night. I'm sure you can see that inspiration in the box.
Thanks of the Hall guys! Next stop...masterworks? :p

The "Galaxy"-part of the logo could be a little brighter otherwise this is brilliant.

Was the outline-only design at all inspired by Kirby's Epic Yarn?
Anyway, it looks cool. Good job.

I think it is a bit too plain. But who am I to give advice to you. And I don't see what you could have added. *Scrolls up the page* *Favs*

Looks like I missed a great box.
Mariolee you have earned a author fave :)

Cool boxart, needs to have a bigger title though. Anyways nice work.
[ Reply ]
Lol, looks like Mario's Epic Yarn.
[ Reply ]
its really good but just one thing that i dont like about it...the back needs some more work
[ Reply ]
I don't like how on the back the "Wii" is not the official logo. Other than that it is great.
[ Reply ]
It's cool and everything but the wii box never changes... except for when it was red for new super mario bros
