Good wood effect, I thought they were plastic but hey. It looks rather flimsy and fragile.

Good, but I can spot a few points of weirdness.

Your actual box part, where the letters go in, is a bit too short, and the height of it doesn't seem in proportion to the width.

The base also looks a bit weird, as the wood effect goes a bit wonkey x]

Oh and in America, the box part would generally be metallic.

7/10 Well done :)

First off, It's A Mail Box in the US, Dont know what u guys have in Uk :p and second, the mail area is a bit too small, the pole is not centered on the base, most mailboxes are planted into the ground, not a premade base, and not too many are made of wood, Most are metal :p and some are plastic

6/10 for alt
9/10 for wood effect GJ :)

Aren't them postboxes made from iron/steel..not wood?
Anyways, since you made them out of wood, here are a few tips.
•The bottom doesn't have this 3D effect, add some highlights so the top/side/front are seperated, not to dark, not to light, just so it gives you the feeling it has more then side (As it does now)
•The toppest part should be a big higher and the door like, 1 pixel smaller.
•Bigger flag-looking thing.


Kthxbye :)

It's quite an ok. You need to work on it though. I'm not too sure about the wood effect at the bottom. Looks more like plastic. And it is a bit too high.


Plus, not many letters could fit in that. That is 4 marks taken away from 10...

6/10, try editting it a sec! ;)

I think the middle bit looks a bit thin and the base looks a bit too big. It's pretty good though, the wood effect is cool, although I thought Mail Boxes were made of metal lol.

I hope you don't mind but I have made a version, of what I think one looks like, I've posted it on here as the credit goes to you as it's your idea and I only made this to help, the top is from yours but I made it a bit bigger. I just made the pole bit wider.
