For my second box, I decided to try something different. First I sketched out a full boxart for Yoshi's Island Wii. Then I colored it, and scanned it to my computer. Last, I added a template and some screen shots. This project took quite a while, but I am very please with the end result. The only thing is, I miscalculated the size of the back, so some of Yoshi's legs got cut off.

Credits go to Del337er for the template, which I edited to my preference.

Enjoy! and please look past the coloring issues, I haven't colored by hand in years :)

Great drawings here, the colouring is a bet sketchy though :P lol joking... I couldnt have done any better tbh lol.

Anyway great box overall, and a shame you miss-sized it but it looks like it fits well :)

Fav. :)

Fantastic stuff. Lovely and original, while other hand-drawn boxes can come off messy, its good to see a neat, well presented one.

Very nice job here, I think you've inspired me to do another hand-drawn box. Another box as good as this one, and you'll have an author fav from me :)

Well obviously this was not as good as i thought it was. Next box, i will do an official game, and make it much better than this. Sorry for the letdown guys.

#12, This was NOT a letdown at all. The most original drawn box I've seen. I can tell a lot of effort was put into this as well, great job!

I would love to see more boxes like this from you.

Really nice work. The part I like best is how you managed to capture the Yoshi's Island vibe with the colored pencil work here.

Very creative and fun my friend. :)

Wow, thank you both very much for the compliments. The only thing i don't like about this box, is the fact that things look so much darker on paper. I tried to lower the Brightness, raise the Contrast, but that didn't seem to help much. Other than that im very pleased with this.

Also i just want to thank you all for your support so far. You have really inspired me, and i plan on doing many more boxes for this site.

Drawing a box is nothing easy, that's for sure. I gotta give you credit for managing to pull this together. You did well.

Dude, this is amazing! I like how you captured the true feeling of Yoshi's Island- Bright and cheerful, also incredibly awesome.

The way the logo blends from light to dark from top to bottom is pretty awesome. Doing that just right is quite difficult with color pencils and you did it just awesomely.

The backgrounds are just awesome as well. Well done front and back.

I'm not sure about the blue ray logo, it was on the template.
