Abandon-O-Rama

[Deividas]

I think it's odd that this thread has turned into, I'm going to post a never before seen cover in this thread to get cries of, "Oh, please don't abandon it". Especially when you suit up the cover in a fancy presentation like you were planning to submit the box anyway. If you need help, please make a WIP thread.

I know you didn't plan on posting this to the main site, but posting it here is teasing us unless you actually posted it on the main site first, deleted it, and then abandoned it.

"Showcase your unfinished/experimental and abandonned boxes."
This was an experimental box with lighting for a game that probably should not have this much light in it. I didn't think it turned out all that well so I didn't upload it. I put a presentation on because I still upload all my work to DeviantArt, so a presentation still looks much cleaner than just a flat piece of paper. I know when I need help and I make a WIP when I need to, but since this is MY work, I will decide if I want to make a WIP or just abandon it and not upload it to the site. And since I am breaking no rule when I post a piece of work here, I dont see the problem.

@Higashi89
Yea why do you delete all of them? Like Throav said, you could come up with something later

I understand, thanks.

I understand, thanks.

Yea sure, I know your not a huge fan of this thread, but maybe thats because you cant really use it lol your work is usually too good to abandon.

[Higashi89]

Really? I try to keep them in case I come up with an idea later.

I have this thing like... why to have something on your hard drive if you never use it? Just to fill unnecessary espace? That's what I think, even because my hard drive only has 10gb left of 250gb

Was going to be my entry for the Judge a Book comp but I ran out of ideas on the front and subsequently ran out of time.

I still plan on doing a XIII-2 box, just not with this design.

The back looks pretty good, but I don't know about the front. Looks a bit too similar to this: http://vgboxart.com/view/16370/shado...edgehog-cover/

I was planning on putting some characters there and stuff.

I made this. Thought to myself, knowing people here, It's best if I just leave it since they'll go full retard on me.

If you actually made that it would be a pretty sweet design.

Uh... I did actually make that. I used the official concept art as a reference to make my own...

Scrapped it since it didn't make any sense. Solaire never fought a dragon in Anor Londo.

Does consistency to source material matter if it looks good?

Does it look good? I thought the lighting was kind of shit.

The orange is heavy, I'd suggest toning it down a bit so it's more easy on the eyes. The rest is fine...

[mchapra]

Made this, realized someone already made something like this a while back. Stopped.

Well maybe some of you think why hasn't SS done an Avengers boxart yet? Well i haven't made anything that does justice to the film yet in my opinion. Here's my cancelled cover that i was originally working on:

As you can see it's still a rough cut, and Captain America and Hawkeye haven't even been added yet, but i wanted to do something more epic and really do the movie justice. It might be finished and re-used in my eventual Avengers set, which i plan to make much better.
