Hi,
Here is my first stab at a Shock Box Insert.

I'm going to do Thrash Rally next...

Any feedback would be appreciated :D

New Kid on the Block!

Welcome to the creative forum!

Boy is it nice to see another contribution to the shockbox community! Your off to a great start too! I would only recommend that you do something about your title/logo to enhance the visibility of each letter of the titles (perhaps a stroke?)

Im not going to say much else about it since there are plenty of other members willing to give feedback.

All I will say is welcome and I look forward to your future contributions!

Very nice but you definitely need to replace the logo . It does'nt stand out.
Everything else is perfect to me.

The color bars look a bit green in that picture. You may want to reference the yellow color on other shock box inserts. Looks good!

Here's a newer version

I like it overall, but as you can see from my close up I may have had to "over photoshop" the logo :eek_2:

Any ideas, or better yet does anyone have a better scan of the logo?

Cheers,
Ben

I was lookin through some flyers and noticed the game screen has the UZZLED in yellow or something.......maybe that will help distinguish the text if you filled in your UZZLED in yellow.

something like this

Untitled-3.jpg


This is just as an idea, its rough as i dont have your artsource, etc. but you get the idea what im saying.

Here's the release candidate

"tracing" the Puzzled logo properly in Photoshop was a bitch :make_fac:

Next insert... Thrash Rally

Cheers,
