Essentially, the only reason I made this box is because I felt that the original boxart didn't capture the epicness of it, and there's always been an idea floating around my head of getting a logo, and making it so big it didn't fit on the front cover.
It lingered on and faded, until I saw a Mirror's Edge Essence box which I loved, and it inspired me once again to return to the idea. But even then, I couldn't think up a game thats art would fit this thing. I found Super Mario Galaxy.
Thus began my quest to make a boxart so epic it blew your freaking minds. I made it for the sole purpose of just making a badass boxart that my friends will go "Dang, I wish my boxart was like that!"
So yeah. Enjoy the printable. :)
Edit: GAH, beaten. Thanks Trev, and your comment reminds me, I didn't want to do the usual Mario flying through space either. :)
#8, Heh, sorry about that. The design is awesome on so many levels, and I love that you didn't cram a bunch of text/screenshots on the back. You're becoming a really great artist.
Now that is a Super Mario Galaxy box!!!!

This design is fun, simple, modern, yet timeless.
And all of that describes SMG perfectly.
Fantastic job at capturing the essence of Galaxy, Mariolee. ;) Definitely one of my favorite Essence boxes so far.

#3, I love you too Yoshistar. :)
#4 Thanks qwerty. The funny thing is, I wasn't even trying to make an essence box. :P

#5, And that's precisely what makes this box so good. It doesn't TRY to be all "Essence-y", it just works.

Wii seems unnecessary and way too small.

#13, I think it's supposed to be sitting in the background, further away from the box.

#33, Kinda, I got the stars from Google Images, and then added some filters to make it look good.

Or maybe not, it's whatever. Deserving none the less.

Its about time.

very good, but I think the logo should not be cut off on the sides when you are viewing the front. Talking about the "G" and "Y" from "galaxy".

Huzzah!
