maybe if the cars was a little bigger it would look more like a real box

Ummmm, looks like you used MS-Paint :lol: if you did then that's why it doesn't look all that great.

Also, most japanese manufacturers use illustrations for the box art, so it's hard to start with a photo and make it look convincing...

I was avoiding copyright infringement.... really...! Honestly. Ok, so don't ever let me proof my own work....

And yeah, I tried to use various filters in fotochop, but they all made it look worse than better. So I just sharpened and softened until it looked a little better... If I had a scanner I'd've drawn it myself, then there'd be trouble.

Anyone else got any mediocre fotochop skillz and kit wishes? Anyone else willing to put them together? This'd be a neat thread if ya'll got into it.

i think the whole idea is kidna dumb, i would rather build a model, then draw a boxtop of a model that i WANT to build

just my opinion
