Can anyone give me some art advice? The perspective here does not seem right… I want the C4 to be in the center of the case, but to me, it looks like it is pushed up against the front edge. Though it looks like the right spot when I display it as a wireframe. Any thoughts?

wireframe placement

    Maybe it’s just too tall? We intuitivelly see it can’t fit, and that makes the perspeceive feel wrong

      Yeah, case opening is at the halfway point of the case. But halfway point of box looks way higher than case opening.

        Yes, but now we can see that something is not aligned, some wire is tilted. Look ae the bottom of the label and top of the backside. Their distance to the box oppening seam shouldn’t be changing

          This actually makes it better to see the perspective imo.

    I think the label “EXPLOSIVE” isn’t vertically centered. If you scoot it down maybe even so the letters are partly obscured that will help the box feel grounded in the case.

    What breaks the perspective is that you expect less padding on the bottom of the box. If you do that with a real box, it will look wrong too.
