Custom Retro TMNT 2012 Packaging - make sense?
 

I dont know why the idea came to me one night a few months ago but this is a project I have had going on and off since March that I was able to complete today. I took the vintage look and feel and merged it with the Nick Turtle packaging. Have a look and let me know what you think. All the art work was drawn by hand or digitally and all coloring happened digitally.

Here is a shot of MOC Mikey next to my printed redesign so you can all see what I did before the bubble was attached.


Here is the bubble attached


Here is a shot so you can compare the posing I drew versus what was on the original packaging..


A close up of the logo designed to meet the retro look but keep the sleek font we have all see from Nick. Going retro I also felt it was necessary to bust out one of the old Nick logos from the early 90s


Another shot of the front


And some close up of the side artwork - I wanted to really mesh the designs here and think I did an alright job with it.


and just for fun here is a test shot as I was redoing the insert..


Enjoy!

I like it...step up.

:D

Jeez that's pretty cool. Looks fairly authentic too. Kinda makes me wish I had saved my packaging.

Coolest thing I've seen all week! You should post templates so others could do the same. :)

Cool! Nice work! I'd love to make my own.

that is awesome

Way cool dude!

This is really sick..

Wicked awesome!!! :tgrin: I especially like the logo on the retro box!

You did a wonderful work with that side artwork, you perfectly emulated the old packages design of the Turtles. Congratulations.

I'd probably get banned for using the words I want to describe your work....so I'll just say this is freakin' sweet. You nailed it....

^^^this!!!!!

Nicely done man, it looks realy kick ass.

really well done nice work. :)

AWEsoME someone should do this with the 2k3 packaging i liked those

Nice job. Everything looks fantastic, and I think you nailed the perfect balance between the two themes.

That's insane dude! Love it :D

haha! this is freakin' awesome! you really captured the look and style of the old packaging. really nice work!

i actually prefer this retro look for the 2012 line. it makes it somehow stand out more

Looks great. If anything, I'd make the name a bit larger. Having the turtle shell right behind it and so large steals the focus from the text, when it should probably be the other way around.
