MaxPower Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 (edited) Here it is flattened and big: Edited April 30, 2004 by MaxPower Quote
Dangard Ace Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Okay as cool as these box designs are, I'm imposing a 700px wide, 72dpi restriction. There is absolutely no need for 200-600mb jpg files. You're doing small mockups, not full scale life-size ones. Quote
Dangard Ace Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Doh! Fixed the images. Sorry about that! Not a problem. Thanks for complying. Now for the rest of you numbnuts.... Quote
MaxPower Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Oh yeah... page 6 is thick with some insane scans I made for the benefit of the people doing mockups. You think we can move them to somewhere on the main MW artwork site so they can be accessible more people, and not clog the bandwidth of this thread? Quote

Knight26 Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 Maxpower i think yours is absolutley awesome, I really like that design. *hopes yamato likes and copies it for theirs, lol* Quote
trueblueeyes Posted May 1, 2004 Author Posted May 1, 2004 Maxpower i think yours is absolutley awesome, I really like that design. *hopes yamato likes and copies it for theirs, lol* I agree that it is a very nice design!(so many great designs in this thread...I feel sorry for poor Ken having to judge ) But I am wondering why is says "VR-6" instead of "VB-6"? Did I miss something?..... Thanks, Melissa Quote
MaxPower Posted May 2, 2004 Posted May 2, 2004 Hey glad you all like them! ...about the misspelling - I had lunch with one of the doctors and he mentioned VR goggles he had used as a rehabilitational therapy treatment. Being a geek, I promptly began to grill him to death about all the details. I most likely still had VR HMDs on the brain when I put the text on the boxes. Quote
Basara Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 Some of these box covers could be expanded and turned into some pretty decent wall paper... Anyone up for it? Quote
MaxPower Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 Some of these box covers could be expanded and turned into some pretty decent wall paper... Anyone up for it? I'd be happy to convert mine. Do we want to start a new wallpaper thread? Or is there an existing wallpaper thread we can add to? Quote

Basara Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 The main box cover of yours, with the Monster and silver backing would be great... I think it's safe to post the wallpaers here in this thread... the old wallpaper thread seems to be dead. Quote
VF22Red Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 I'ld be willing to make some wallpapers of my box designs. Quote
trueblueeyes Posted May 6, 2004 Author Posted May 6, 2004 I'ld be willing to make some wallpapers of my box designs. Please do! I'd love to have some new wallpapers and these would be great especially with all the work that went into the designs. Thanks, Melissa Quote

EXO Posted July 20, 2004 Posted July 20, 2004 nice akt_m!!! You guys realize that every box design here are a lot better than the one that came with the original? Quote
trueblueeyes Posted July 20, 2004 Author Posted July 20, 2004 Nice work akt_m. the constest didnt finished yet, did it?because it would be bad to know that i worked for "nothing" Not until we hear from Ken that he has picked a winner. You guys realize that every box design here are a lot better than the one that came with the original? Very true Exo! Thanks to everyone for the work that went into these designs. Good luck to everyone. I'm glad I am not the one who will have to pick a winner...lots of great designs. Quote
akt_m Posted July 20, 2004 Posted July 20, 2004 (edited) finished, if your screen gamma is to high you wont be able to see what i am seeing so i made a small test, i will post after this post. Edited July 20, 2004 by akt_m Quote
ulyssesdraco Posted August 19, 2004 Posted August 19, 2004 I'd of never thought that box art would make me so hot right now... Quote
mooseydoom Posted August 19, 2004 Posted August 19, 2004 Is this contest still going on? I might take a stab at it. Quote

ChristopherB Posted August 19, 2004 Posted August 19, 2004 akt_m, Great job! It's no big deal, but proper grammar is important: "Modeling Skills Helpful If Under (10) Years of Age" So, just change the current "O" to an "I". In addition, I sucked in art class, so by no means do I claim to be an expert, but I do believe your shadowing perspective is off. I'm refering to the shadow under the VB-6. I tried visualizing the light source in a perspective that could create that particular shadow, and was not able to due to discrepancies. For example, the arm shadow shows up on one side but not the other, and one foot has a shadow going to one side and back, while the large cannon have a shadow directly below, but the other arm has nothing below it. I hope that makes sense without me being too in-depth, and please remember it's just meant to be constructive criticism. Sincerely, Christopher Quote
akt_m Posted August 19, 2004 Posted August 19, 2004 (edited) thx for the compliments. i already knew it was wrong (error due to keyboard malfunction, and i took it from a tamiya box) i didnt chage it because the file is very big and my duron 1.3 was having problems to process everything. (now i have a duron 1.8, is a little faster) you are right the lights are completely wrong, but when i drew it i didnt think about doing correctly the light sources because i was too lazy to do everything well (i also forgot to paint some parts ).

akt_m Posted August 19, 2004 Posted August 19, 2004 (edited) does it look better without the lines? Edited August 19, 2004 by akt_m Quote
Valkyrie Posted September 14, 2004 Posted September 14, 2004 Well, the Monster project is winding down, and I'm hoping to have it finished in about a month. So it's about time I picked a winner so i can get going on the packaging end of the project So, without further ado, the winner is... VF-22Red! I've decided to go with this design of his: Original Design And here's VF-22's revised version, with the layout changed a bit to match my box size. It won't be the final version though, as I'll probably be asking for some minor changes to be made. I wanted to host the images on my own webspace to spare Shawn's bandwidth, but I had some problems with the revised version, which was sent to me in PDF format. It seems Comcast won't accept PDF uploads, so I had to compress it and upload it as a ZIP file But here it is: Revised Design (Zipped PDF) Congrats to VF-22Red, and thanks to everyone who entered!
