Packaging for the DataHunters

pepe — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 23:18:31 +0000

update: a few word about this paper-box: it was fun to make this colorfull version
of a packaging and also the folding works perfect…
but finally i don’t think it’s the right kind of packaging for the Datahunter ’cause
the style is too much like every mass-produced toy from china. It dosn’t hit the look
for an unique handcrafted toy like the Datahunter…what you think?
(yes, and i really fixed my nikon coolpix! :)

my lovely cam (coolpix990) is broken :( …so no pictues at this time, but at least
i have to post this template for a package of the DataHunters in processes. I was trying
to work with sketches and had a vage layout concept in my mind. Then i vectorized
my line drawings and do the inking afterwards with Illustrator.
Had the biggest problem to place all the necessary informations somewhere, set
points of interests, get everything together and ajust the colorrange.
I’ve printed different variations on 350g/m2 Brisrol Paper, cuted out, folded the packaging and attached the transparent window before glueing all together. Picures will folowing when i can finally grab another cam (..or maybe i should try to repair the old one:)

What u think? Anyone experience in print- and punching processes? Could use some advices…thx

GOLD DATAHUNTER (special edition)

pepe — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 18:56:34 +0000

Finally an update on projects! Well, just one but I’ll post more in the next few days.
Been super busy since the last update. First check out the new sweet “bling!bling!” DataHunter:

DATAHUNTER GOLD (special edition/wooden box)

This new gemmy guys are vanished with a warm gold tone and have
two jewels as eyes. For now only 5 pieces are made and every
of them has his own wooden box out of dark oak tree and lined
with red velvet. A branding for the box is in progress and soon
ready for the CNC millcut in brass…wondering if this works well :o

…it was tricky and took me a while to fix the jewels in position.
but i think it was worth the effort to get this shiny eyes, hope you like it?
