I wanted to challenge myself as a boxartist. I wanted to do something original, something that hasn't been done before, or has very rarely been tried.

So I thought to myself, "Hey, why not make an original 'Zelda' box?". Of course, this box was difficult to make. Since most Zelda boxes look alike, it was hard to sort of stay away from the normal color scheme, but I tried my best, and I think that it came out very well.

Hopefully this will be a breath of fresh air for Twilight Princess boxes.

Enjoy! and be sure to comment and rate!

Looks pretty good, I'd change the template though

I appreciate your innovation, but I'm not feeling it.

I don`t think it is original to invert the colors of the real temp and it is not original to place something half outside the box too (the wolf on the front)

Inverting the temp wasn't a very good idea eh? Yeah, I may change that.

thanks for the support guys :

#5, anything you think I can improve upon?

#6, I'm afraid I don't understand what you talking about with the wolf on the front.

This inverted template doesn't appeal to me, also, the Beige colored front and back takes away from Zelda, because of how colorful the game usually is. Also the back seems slightly plain, the idea sounds good on paper, but it doesn't seem to work for me. Nice move being innovative though.

#8, Thanks for noticing my innovation, but have you played this game? It's not all "Sunshine happiness colors!", like The Wind Waker, it's a REALLY dark game, and making it seems more colorful would probably make the game look a bit kiddish, which it isn't. But I'll probably invert the temp again.

Essentially what you have here is a great box, with a poor temp idea. If everything on the temp was in orange, then it wouldn't be so bad, but the mismatched colors from the inverting process throws everything off.
The front is really awesome however the 3D Zelda kind of throws my eyes off, and the outer glow on the logo is far too orange to fit with the brown paper-ish color you've set as the theme to go with.
The back is well organized, but the snapshots seem like they're arranged in that way in order to fill up space. Outside of that, I think that the Royal Crest sign should be in grey, to match with the written on paper idea.

Overall good, but with a few aesthetic errors that make it average instead of OVER the TOP.

this is really good man but i thought you already had your own unique style imo. i mean i could notice your boxes when i seen them. but this box is really good man and although others haven't liked the temp i do! it goes well with the background that you have. not sure about the teal info though. and the box looks better than most of the zelda boxes ive seen imo. so +fav :)
