7sk WIP Thread

[7sk]

Feel a bit silly making my own thread with only one published box to my name, but I've got a few I could use some critique on.

Critique with. For. In. Whatever.

I'll be showing them in printable format, so that hopefully I'll only have to set up the presentation once when it's done, I hope that's okay with everyone. Also, most of these boxes (okay, all of them) are Criterion/GAF/Essence Collection, so bear with me if that bothers you.

Anyways, here we go.

Spirited Away:


Casino Royale:


Hero:


A Clockwork Orange:


Princess Mononoke:


Skyward Sword:


Charlie and the Chocolate Factory:


Metroid: Other M:


Star Wars Episode IV:


Heavy Rain:


And my first published box, for good measure.

Metroid Prime Trilogy:


Sorry for the deluge, but think of it this way: if you've made it through this far, now's your chance to rip me a new one with critiques, so everything works out

Damn man I can see you becoming A famous artist on this site in no time, My name is jesse777, pleased to meet you 7sk.

[7sk]

Nice to meet you too, jesse. Thanks for the kind words

[Spiderpig24]

These are all really incredible boxes man, I especially love the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Metroid Other M boxes. The Casino Royale and Clockwork boxes are really great too. I don't see anything I would change on any of them.

[7sk]

Wow, thank you. I guess I should get started on the presentations for at least those four.

The Clockwork and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory boxes are my favorites, reallly nice work.

[7sk]

There really isn't anything anyone would change about these? I want them to be absolutely perfect before I publish them.

[woopwoop11]

On the Princess Monoke one, use a gradient to blend the two images on the front together instead of just two plain images. you're really good at making simplistic boxes by the way.

[master_general]

Seriously amazing.

[mchapra]

Nice work, though I do not find Clockwork Orange to be fitting.

I can't think of anything. But the site will only let you post one box per day.

Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away
Metroid Other M

Fucking masterpieces right there.

Heavy Rain looks pretty badass too.

[del337er]

Wow...post them all...i cant wait to fav

[7sk]

I can't wait to post them

Question: how does the whole Hall of Fame thing work? I'm not being egotistical or whatever, I just don't know if it's a minimum faves or nomination/review thing or what.

Its the amount of points you get. Each person who faves a box has a rank. My rank is 7. So every time I fave a box I give that box 7 points. Once a box reaches a certain amount of points it will get into the hall. The exact number of points needed is unknown. the average guess is 150 points or higher. I think that you will have no problem reaching that amount of points.

[7sk]

Ah, thank you, for clearing that up and for the words of encouragement.

Posted my Heavy Rain box here, comment and fave please

A fellow GAFfer? I noticed u posted on the GAF template, not essence.

Anyway, I'm really digging Metroid Other M and CATCF. I think you could polish up the typography a bit (perhaps a neat block of text).

Not quite, been waiting for months to get accepted, so I just signed up here.

I'll try that.

Anyways, I need some help. I've got this Wind Waker box, but I can't find a good enough logo render for it. I'm not sure if I should just use a regular font logo or jerry-rig something more official looking or what. Also, I'm kinda "wut do" on the back, so please, halp needed.
