    Another project is done!! The Voice box art at least. But this one I'll try and assemble myself. I got tired of searching a good place to print or a full sized cardboard and decided to assemble by trial and error. So I'll post my results later on as well a mini replica box of it.
    Someone from another forum suggested I put a text as a disclamer to mention it is not a (the) real box, so I did it.

    Thanks again

    We had stopped in at a OfficeMax that was going out of business last week, and I picked up a large sheet of posterboard for like $0.71. Now I just need to get the files ready to print and get it done.

    The The Voice boxes are ready!! Both big and mini. As I said before I decided to go full guerilla style on the box so, instead of looking for a place to print it all in one piece, I printed each face separately. First I assembled the box itself with the cardboard. Just plain, with no art. Then I glued each side and glue black tape on the edges. I never thought it would work, so I didn't take any pictures of the process, but it turned out really great and I'm very happy with my box. I consider this project done. Now on to the styrofoam part.

    Here are the pics.

    I got tired of the overcharging the printing places were asking to print a full one sheet print for me (sometimes the price matched buying a conole with a box!!!) so I decided to go guerrila style. I printed the biggets size they would for a dollar and glue it together. the perfect soluction? No, but I'm pretty satisfied with the results so far. I'll post the pics on the progress and if someone would give me any ideas on how to make the merging point a little more discrete, I wuld appreciate a lot!

    Now I'm finally starting the Genesis project. I couldn't get anyone to send me hd pictures, but someone sent me nice pictures from ebay. I got the dimensions from my own box.
    Here'e the link for you to follow the progress. The front face is already done.

    Now the back part of your box. I had to improvise a lot, because I didn't have help with the pictures but the help I got from another member from a different forum who provided detailed but not HQ pictures, but I think it turned out ok. Now to the next step...

    And both sides are the same, so I only made one, all there is left to do is the assemble, since the top and bottom are both black with the white grid.

    My Jaguar box has a few dings, but the Mega Drive/PC-FX stuff is pretty clean and straight. I don't remember what else is in the unfinished part of my basement, but there's probably at least some Saturn, Wii, and PS1 boxes if not more.
    Hi celerystalker, how are you???
    I finally got a request for the japanese Mega Drive Model 1, are you still willing to take those nice pictures for me? I would really appreciate it and even would send you a mini box of it if you would like...

    You, my friend, are the greatest. I don't know what to say but thank you. Send me an email at lebiagi@me.com with your home address (if you wish so) and choose which box you would like me to send you (I can only send miniboxes) and I'll do it, as a thank you. Choose it here leonardobiagi.imgur.com . And by the way, you commented a while ago that you bought some cardboard and was going to print a box, did you do it? Do you need my big files to do so? I can send you the editable photoshop files if you want to. just ask.

    Never got around to printing anything yet. I will eventually. My projects to-do list is extremely long, but my projects finished is a lot shorter. Don't worry about sending me a minibox. I don't mind helping out.

    Forgot to post them with the pics. The box is 15" square, and 5.5" deep.

    I don't know if DP re-sizes the files, so let me know if they need to be e-mailed instead. Hope they help!

    Those are perfect!!! Thanks again!!! I'll be always grateful to you guys for that.
    Did you remember to measure it?

    PS - Culd you take a picture of the japanese characters from the bottom part of the box (a closer one). I think I'll use it from the pic instead of trying to reproduce it.
