Here is my submission for the Finale! The box was only allowed to contain the official logo and a simple tagline. I decided to go with Okami. Although there have been many Okami boxes, I didn't see any that were completely custom or hand-drawn.
I have worked on this for a week straight, basically. Everything on this box is 100% made by me (logo, text, presentation, etc), and I would say over 95% was hand-drawn (logo, text, and even coloring in the picture was all hand-drawn). Naturally, I traced a lot of it from official wallpapers, but I still made sure that everything had the same art style so it all fit together.
Because the whole file (.psd) is roughly 6GB (16,000px x 12,000px), I had to decrease it by quite a bitÂ…As a result, the box I uploaded here is at full resolution, but the size had to be decreased to about 4,500px x 4,000px.
If you want to take a look at the full version (all pixels), but severely reduced quality (so it could be uploaded to the internet) you can see it here: link
I won't even bother putting a link for the full version with full resolution, as that was about 41mbÂ…
I also want to thank everyone that helped me as I created this. That would include Squall234, tleeart, RAiDeN-209, tmrd, and Daemon.
This is lovely. It does well to captures the essence of Okami's unique, beautiful artistic style. And the effort you've put into this is obviously apparent.
The background behind the tagline could make it seem hard to read at times, but the artistic approach you went with in this box and the perfect execution makes it for one of the best boxes on the whole site. Splendid work, this is an underrated boxart.
