Design the BioShock Limited Edition Box

[Vraptor7]

The Cult of Rapture site has gotten a redesign, and now there's a new contest:

Now I ask you, what would you like ON the box?

To give you some backstory, this idea began because of a fan in the 2K forums, Rapture_Tourist gave us an awesome idea with his very detailed fan art of a possible BioShock Limited Edition. We loved the feeling of his etched metal casing, and want to run with it. (See his design here.)

So now, for the next two weeks, I’ll be collecting submissions for designs that could go on the front of the BioShock Limited Edition box.

I like the steel case, but I think the slipcase could do with a nice distant shot of Rapture, to emphasize how isolated it is (and because it looks pretty).

So the fans get to design the limited edition box?

This is absolutely beyond awesome. If Irrational Games was a hot babe, I'd throw a sack over her Borat style and marry her.

Now, if only I could draw something other than a retarded stick figure in Paint...

[Mr.WaeseL]

Holy Shit that mockup is awesome.

Submit it anyway. Go on, do it.

Illustrator, black and white, no soft edges / gradients etc. This is for embossing.

This would be sooo awesome.

That is the most innovative box art I have seen to date. Great job.

Thank you!

Are multiple entries allowed?

[Bjossi]

I say why not? The more the better.

[Scabeater]

Nice goat.se

Are multiple entries allowed?

Limit one entry per person.

[NHJ BV]

Nice goat.se

Haha, my thoughts exactly

[Navyhacker006]

... and now I can't un-see Vigil's entry as goat.se. Thanks so very much.

Granted, I've been most fortunate thus far, and don't think I've ever seen it for more than a millisecond or so, so quite a bit is left to my imagination, but still.

[Mr.WaeseL]

The ring gave it away immediately

[Gingerbread Man]

The disturbing thing is that Vigil either visualised the position and inferred the correct location for the ring, or he used the original as a reference.

And I'm laughing over here imagining him in the stance trying to determine which finger is the left ring.

as a professional artist I prefer to work from life whenever possible

Westnet, an Australian ISP, have been sporting a goat.se-esque logo for at least a year or two. Even the slogan seems to hint at it.

'It's service that sets us apart'? You'd have to push that quite a long way to get a double-entendre out of it.
