Bayonetta X Devil May Cry (by DjRunza)

[djrunza]

Hey what's up guys! How are you doing? Here I am, I would like to show you my cover box art of "Bayonetta X Devil may Cry" that most of the DMC & Bayonetta fans been waiting for it ever since long time ago. So, I decided to actually create up the cover box art for it so that the fans could feel like "Oh, how I wish this game would actually exist in the future."

Moving on, as you can see there's one and only screenshot that I can do so far, the reason why I made up only one screenshot on the back of the cover box art is simply because I wanna do something different like no other games could've done for. For an example, you see like most of the games they include some 3-4 screenshots on the back cover game so that obviously people could actually see some of the gameplays on the screenshots in the game whereas for mine, I would make up just a single screenshot with a medium size of it and place it on the right bottom part on the back cover box art. Anyway, this is the cover box art of "Bayonetta X Devil May Cry" that I've made. The "Devil may Cry" logo I made it by myself.



Please do drop by some comments, suggestions and opinions about my cover box art above there. Is there any area or part that I should change? What says you.

P/S: Sorry about my bad English. :P

Here's my 2nd version of the cover box art of "Bayonetta X Devil May Cry". Which box art is the better one? The 1st or the 2nd box art?

Wow, This is really something else.

Not sure where to start with this but I would firstly recommend you use either buying Adobe Photoshop or downloading gimp/paint.net. Using paint is not exactly the best program to create boxart as you are limited to the editing and features others bring.

I do like the idea and some layout aspects but sadly the execution lets it down dramatically.

Thank you so much for the advices GrahamZ. I really appreciate it. In fact, I'm actually using Adobe Photoshop to create these box arts and I never use paint before not even once in my lifetime. Lol. I already get use to Adobe Photoshop nowadays.

Thanks GrahamZ. Awh really? I ran out of ideas when it comes on the back cover part. Do you have any suggestions or ideas to look more better cover box art?

Here's the 3rd updated version of the cover box art. This time I change Dante's and Cereza's positions at the front cover box art and literally change the entire layout at the back cover box art as well.

I really like the concept of your box, but I think that it's lacking in a few places.
(btw if you could post a larger resolution image of this that would help a lot, if your worried about image size then just use imgur. I know Photobucket has resized and converted a lot of my images to low quality jpeg.)

In my opinion I think these should be changed:
Cover:
-The title seems a bit off to me, maybe bring back the "X" you made with the Rebellion and Katana, but layer it behind Dante and Cereza. Or make it smaller.
- Remove the "Let's Rock Baby"(maybe it could be on the back)
- I really don't like the image used as the background, I don't understand what kind of relevance it has, and the fact that it's squished to fit the temp makes it look really cramped.
- Why is there a Pegi rating and an ESRB rating? Just one should suffice, also remember to change the back to match whichever one you choose.

Back:
- Tag Line imo should be "When A Witch & Devil Collide!" or "A Witch & A Devil Collide!" Or you could use "Let's Rock Baby" or "It's Show Time!"
-Synopsis imo should be: "When the paths of a Sexy Witch & a Devil Hunter converge within the corrupted city of "Furio90" (orFurioso? I can't tell sorry), it's time to start kicking some Demon Ass! After receiving the same Intel from both ENZO's, it's up to Dante and Cereza to join forces and destroy all of the Demons that lurk within bowels of the city."
- In your "Features" section I think if you changed it around it would sound better:
+ Boasting a unique and gripping cinematic storyline.
+ Switch between Dante and Cereza at any time.
+ Unlockable Modes, Costumes, and More!
- Screen shot(s) I can understand the lack of them since this doesn't really exist, but try to make some more anyway, I know how much of a pain it is but it will look a lot more official if there are at least 3.

I hope that this helps, like I said before I really like the concept and I would like to see this become the best it can.

Dude, so sorry for the late reply again. As usual, my internet line still the same. By the way D_Nikolaos, now I've just done upgrading the cover box art.



What says you my friend? I really hope that you'll like it.

The background used on the front looks weird... try to use a internet wallpaper with a "hell" theme like a crimson moon or something like that... and make a closer zoom on Dante and Bayonetta, only to show their upper body parts, I think showing the full body of them is good, but showing only the upper part makes it more suitable for the box.

The Features part should use the same font as you used in the descripion (the font used in the "When the paths of a (...)" part)

For now that's the only things that annoys me about this box. All the rest is ok

Thank you so much for the feedback Higashi89, I really appreciate it. Now I've already change all the parts that you've mention it above, and this is how it looks like. I really like idea of yours too! And I really do hope that you'll like it as much as I do.

(Hey sorry I haven't kept up on the progress of this, I've been busy IRL)

I like the changes thus far, but I think that reducing the size of the font used in your "features" section, rearranging the positioning of the screenshots and removing the rose stem that extends off of your cover would work nicely.
Also in the features section it should be "Unlockable Modes, Costumes, and More!" you forgot the commas.

Example: http://i.imgur.com/F7Asb.png
(Although I know I f*cked up resizing the "features" part in MSpaint, but you get the gist of what I'm saying overall right?)

Lol neah it's alright man. Don't worry about it.

Thank you D_Nikolaos, I really appreciate it. Now I've just modified the entire parts that I need to change according to your suggestions and I really do hope that it turns out to be a great looking cover box art of 'Bayonetta X Devil May Cry' eventually. Here's the updated version of cover box art.



What do you think about it?

P/S: I've just added up the red fire flame as an additional background design at the front cover box there as you can see.
