Custom Retro TMNT 2012 Packaging - make sense?

TheMasterTurtle · 07-01-2013, 07:10 PM

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..

Spoiler:

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

Spoiler:

Another shot of the front

Spoiler:

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.

Spoiler:

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

Enjoy!

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.

*snake* · 07-01-2013, 07:28 PM

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

So Mikey's 3 brothers have joined him. I wanna grab some extra money for some stuff so in a week or two these guys will be on eBay. I wanted to sell in pairs so I had to at least finish the set of 4 before doing that.
