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?

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.

Looks alright to me

I'd say the case is too shallow.

You need a second one. It's a "blast door"

the duct tape and WD-40 of the SGC. need something in motion to stop? blast door. need something stationary to start moving? C4 baby

When in doubt, C4!

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.

Add some shadow between the container and the box.
