As I have matured as a boxart-designer, Ive slowly learned that a box isnt made solely to be pretty.. its supposed to communicate what the game is about.
So here is my (belated) one-year anniversary box, which was made to do just that: communicate.
Instead of using that overused image of Ryu walking forward, I chose a more dynamic image of Ryu punching to add movement and tell the audience that, yes, this is a fighting game. Brush strokes/splatters were added to complement the sumi-e art style of the game and give off an agressive vibe.
The back, originally created to complement the front, ended up as a whole new message on its own. The layout is traditional and basic, but ink/paint splatters are placed regularly around the composition to give it a fresh feeling.The game claims to be just that: a traditional fighter game with new additions to modernize it. Sure, that concept is a little deep for most people to even figure out, but its the thought that counts, right? X)
Anyway, the fantastic template is made by Sens, a humungormous 300 dpi printable is on its way, and enjoy!
#7, inorite? I just bought a new laptop a few weeks ago though, so I'll be able to make boxarts more often. In fact, I'm working on a new one right now. ;)
#5, #11, haha! I think E_G and Greg had personality changes.
Looks really good. The only small problem I see is on the front, the blue ink splatter right below the log just doesn't look right to me. It kind of just cuts off.
