Nothing too exciting, but Ocean Quigley – former EA worker, posted some information about the boxart design he created for SimCity 3000.  The image he provides makes for an excellent wallpaper!

This was the interior box-art for SimCity 3000. We way overbuilt that geometry for how large it would ever appear in game, so it held up to print resolution just fine.

I’m particularly proud of the launch arco on the left; it’s a little white suburban house complete with a picket fence and a tricycle in the yard, all enclosed in Buck Rogers style rocket ship.

Oh, and the Battersea power plant from Animals came out nicely too.
