I love making Essence boxes. I love Okami. So this was inevitable. Started with the background, included a bit of Hokusai in that like I did with my Muramasa Essence box. I think this is one of my best.
It looks nice, but I think you shouldn't have blended in the screen shots, but instead make more of those "brush strokes" so each screen shot's has it's own, you get what i'm saying?
#1, Thanks
#2, Thanks
#3, Yeah the only part I wasn't 100% on were the screenshots. But it didn't look right having another Amaterasu render there.
#4, This is the PS2 version. Wii version had the IGN watermark.
This is close to perfect! My only complaint is that on the brush mark for the screenshots, the lower right corner is too sharp making it look rather odd.
I don't normally like your attitude, but I gotta say, you have talent.
Loads of it.
So I hope you enjoy this fave, and what the heck, heres an author fave too.
On the one hand, the front is epic; from an aesthetic standpoint, it is beautiful. However, since this is a boxart for the English language version of the game, I think it would've made more sense to write "Okami" in English on the top. Other than that, it's stunning. :)
Beautiful.

Reminds me so much of your Muramasa box, which is a great thing. I feel you really know what Essence is about. Bravo!

#11, Yeah it's not as noticeable when I'm using a smaller version of that brush stroke. I'm gonna fix it tomorrow.

#22, Well it's such a recognizable game, and it being an Essence box, I didn't think an English title was necessary.
