The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past box art cover

Here's my latest cover; A Link to the Past.

Now, I was born in 1994 and I'm turning 20 in around 2 months, so for a game that's older than me I really struggled with doing this as it's something that's well out of my comfort zone. I usually enjoy designing a cover more if it's something I've played a lot or if it's something I grew up with and nostalgia plays a part.

With that being said, I took inspiration from various ALTTP covers on here, as well as the official cover, so I just wanted to say thanks for the great inspiration to Rokudaime, tleeart, alldreamsfalldown, and finally, Didac.FL.

Special thanks to Leegion for the awesome SNES template, too: link

Happy New Year, guys & gals!

While I do think that the back is a bit boring, the front is absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks guys, and Happy New Year :)

Any recommendations on what I could do to improve the back?

@BenBrownDesign Link and Zelda look like they are floating. A ground, or at least a small circle for them to be standing on, could possibly fix this. Besides that, all that really bugs me is the text. Maybe you could try adding something behind it to make it seem like it isn't just pasted on there.
