You guys have no idea how excited I am for this game. The wait is killing me.
About the front, I know that render of Samus is INCORRECT! But I had already begun making this case before the huge load of Other M artwork was released, and I really didn't want to rework the entire front based on a different Samus pose.
Thanks for the quick and kind comments guys. #5, I understand, it's just that none of the new artwork had Samus in a pose that would work with the layout I wanted, and I didn't feel like redoing the entire front. Thanks though, I appreciate it!
Thank you guys! #15, I thought it'd turn out nice with this color choice, and it looked awesome on Grand's case. Thanks, and dude you have the best avatar on the site.
#17, I actually didn't add a grain filter to the case, just how it looks. I can see what you mean though, do you think I should remove the hexagons from the back?
#18, Not a problem, friend. =)
Edit: Oh I almost forgot! The logo is Koopadasher's, so credit to him.
I like how you you composed your own front cover, even though there is a metric fuckton artwork that was just released for this game on neogaf.
Anyway, Cool front cover, but the back cover - in disagreement with #17 - is stale. You've used the same style over and over in your earlier boxes. Like I said on your last box, you should try to experiment because you are more capable than others to take risks now.
#20, Appreciate the words dms, as I've said before I really have trouble with backs. I find myself falling into old habits and just making what I think I've heard you call "safe". I agree and want to try something different and take risks with my designs, I just have trouble figuring out how. =/
#26, Yeah press kits are a wonder, so many hi-res images to use. And I had to mention your case, it was a bit of inspiration for me to finally finish this (I had this in the works for so long).
#27, Very much appreciate that you think that man, though I don't think so. I personally am not sure if any of my cases deserve MW yet.
Excellent job. I must admit that I have next to no interest in this particular Metroid game, but this box does let me see in in a potentially more awesome light. :)
Thanks everyone, for favs/comments and getting this into the Hall!
#32, Thanks Drak, while it's too bad you're not interested yourself, there are few other games this year that have had me this excited. Cannot wait for August 31st. :D
This is very nice SD. But I really want to see a new kind of color tone from you. I mean all ive really seen is mostly blue and purple. It works great but I just want to see what else you can do.
#35, Really? I mean I understand about the blue (it's my favorite color after all, haha), but I'm pretty sure this is the first case I've done with purple as the central color theme. Thank you though.
#36, Ohh well I guess it is. There was another metroid prime box I saw in purple. But yea I would like to see more warmer boxes I guess from you. Like red.
#37, Ah yes, you're probably referring to Grand's Other M case? It was one of the main sources of inspiration for me completing this.
I did try a warmer theme with my Red Steel 2 case, but that turned out more orange than red, hehe. Maybe I'll try that with my next design, thanks Jevan! =)
#38, LOL. Yea. But I cant really be talking cause I started my Metroid other m box a couple of days ago and it has a strong purple color tone as well. LOL.

Sexy, but I think there are a few too textures on the back. Between the hexagons, grain, stars and scan lines, it gets a bit distracting.
BTW, the back is drop-dead gorgeous...I think it's easily your best yet!

Sorry that I forgot to fav it dude... =P
