Anubis Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 (edited) What do you guys think about a small battroid in the corner? Edit, fixed version couple posts down Edited June 16, 2004 by Anubis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley424 Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I like the last design with the little battroids in the corners. That and the blue Sharon pic is pretty hot. Nicely done Anubis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vibayo Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I think that the Batroid YF-21 should go in the right side of the big YF-21 image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechamaniac Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 What about increasing the size of the Battroid pics, and making them the spine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I think that the Batroid YF-21 should go in the right side of the big YF-21 image I thought about that too actually after I posted it. Just needed to scoot the -21 over so the battroid wouldn't overlap the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoBe-Patt Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Ok, here's the sharon apple in blue! Can you pull that off on the source .tif? I can send it you you if you like. Is this the kind of sharon computer pic you were looking for? hmmm, almost like it, but I need a more clear shot of that and up close. Oh well, looks like everybody likes the blue sharon. And what was that you asked? Can I pull the picture off the source? All I did was save the picture you posted up and changed the colors. If you want a hi-rez one, send me the file and I'll tweak the colors. Send it here: labelstation2@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdr Fokker Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 ok, here's what I've done to Anubis's picture that he sent me of Sharon Apple. let me know what you guys think. I like it! On a side note, I got my SDFM cases the other day... very nice, though I'm such a latecomer I got #'s 018 (Mech) and 024 (Mikimoto). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangard Ace Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Wow! The Mikimoto got up to #24?! and the Mecha got #18? Good going guys! Both hit the minimum required and that's gotta pump people up! Hopefully we'll see bigger sales once the M+ box gets finished. Gotta make up that 100+ votes saying they'll buy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nilrem Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 I think I forgot to post i received my mech box (#14) on Monday and it's lovely thanks to everyone for their hard work i quite like the blue colour scheme macross plus boxes (the fighter diagrams with the macross plus logo on the top etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooncivicR Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 I have #09 of both the Mikimoto and Mecha boxes and they are great. As for the Mac + box, I love the b&w sides with the color spine and top... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwinges Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 I like this one best. gotta have the flying hand as the spine. If someone mentions macross plus this is always the first image that comes to mind. Like the new sides and top. forget sharon unless we can add an additional slip piece to hold the DVD's in the box (think Full metal box set that only includes first disk. Just a folded up piece of cardboard that has some pics on the spine. If this were made out of the same material as the rest of the box I think it would look pretty awsome to have Sharon on the false spine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDisco Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 I like this one best. gotta have the flying hand as the spine. you and i are of the same mind jwinges. i absolutely love the dessert image. i think the effort put in has been outstanding but with no disrespect i have to stick by this selection.

Anubis Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 (edited) Going to post an updated sharon box with bobepatt's blue sharon example tonight. Might be a tough call between that one and the desert spine box. We'll see how the other one looks. I think many will be pleased with that one. One plug for the desert box = the pics are pretty much ready to go. the sharon box, almost there. Edited June 21, 2004 by Anubis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may need to start a new thread/poll, to help decide which box - I'm torn between them - and to tell the truth, I'd be happy with either of them...

Anubis Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 (edited) Here's one with Bobe Patt's blue sharon. I think she could use being a shade darker possibly, to go better with the sides (maybe try the same shade as the sides?) but a blue sharon in general on the spine really does look pretty good. My heart's still on the desert spine, but this one is shaping to be a good alternative. Any more feedback from Paul on the sides? Did he check how they would look? Or do I need to send him the better ones for him to check? Edited June 22, 2004 by Anubis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDisco Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 i agree with you, the shade of blue needs to be altered. in the end i'm still with the dessert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoBe-Patt Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 can somebody send me a clean copy of the desert scene of the spine? I wanna try something. Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechamaniac Posted June 22, 2004 Author Share Posted June 22, 2004 can somebody send me a clean copy of the desert scene of the spine? I wanna try something. Thanx I'll send it to you when I get home, I think I still have the originals. BTW - I like the most recent lineart box with the sharon pic, but the little battroid pics look out of place. Suggestion - perhaps we can use the Battroid pics closer to full size if we make some custom DVD covers. Two pics, two DVD's if we use the OVA, that way, we can use the Battroid pics, as they are very cool, but IMHO, they crowd up the fighter lineart sides, and draw attention away from them.

Gaijin Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I like the planes but, I really wonder if the tiny text will show on the boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Perhaps it would look better if you try to match the blue tones of the planes and Sharon, to the blue of the Macross Plus Pyramid Gotta be careful with the side panels though. They can't be too dark otherwise the text will not show. That's why DA put this color up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vibayo Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Well,and what abot removing the Sharon Apple's circuit background? I think it should look smoother it would get on better with the rest of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
