The two sides come together surprisingly well, the styles look almost identical. Something that doesn't often happen with collabs.

The front's impressive. Composition is nice for the most part, I like the heavy use of red/white. I do however have an issue with the black lining around the characters. It's not so much the stroke itself as much as the blur/shadow, it just seems like too much. I noticed it on the back as well.

Pretty damn good job, you two.

Very nice box, but I agree with sd, the shadows are very heavy.

This looks a lot better without the huge black strokes. I'm glad to see you took my advice and updated it.

Good work guys. Front and back fits together well and I like the way you did the tagline, Spiderpig24.

Looks good except the back description text looks too pronounced, a more simple text would work better.

The ceoncept and the front and back fit very well together. But i found some minor flaws. The text space between the lines is too small, some letters are overlapping. The frame of the third picture seems too close to the text (seems to overlap). The white pistol is a copie of the black one, but the blood splatter behind that pistol is also coloured white, not really looking good. The front cover logos of of the rating and 2k should be in the inner side of the front picture, with the overlapping of that border it seems a little out of place, also the shadow of that "pictureframe" seems a bit odd in the 3d version.

Don't misunderstand me i'll like the whole thing but these are the things i would change.

PS: I love the headline of the back with that skyline.

I would have thought this was all made by one person. Simply put, this design is really cool.

Thanks for the comments guys!

#18, The majority of that was all intentional, at least with the back. The guns were added to fill space around the screenshots and the car, and I don't really see anything wrong with the white being a copy of the black gun. For the text, I wanted to make everything as close as possible. But everything is still completely legible, at least in full view. None of the text is covered up by the screenshots, since it's layer was above the screenshot layer in the PSD file. Thanks for the critique though, I really appreciate you looking into it at this detail!

I really like the style of this box, but there are a few small things that bothers me and keeps it away from perfection. But it deserves a +Fav.
