Cacky Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Nice start, the Arkham Asylum one is by far the best. Text could do with some work though, be sure to download lots of fonts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz DJM Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Man, i love that second to last one, the spartan running, its a work of art, im willing to buy this fair peace, i mean.. it is an auction.. right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B T E R Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 my favorite is the bioshock one, keep up with the good work. as hnc said, get a whole load of fonts, since these are a bit dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I love the second to last one and the third to last one, they're really creative. And you could use some bolder fonts since you have a simpler signature style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyGuyGary Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Thanks for the compliments guys. When I'm choosing the fonts I go through my selection, and whenever I go on a bold one, to me the contrast is too big. As my signature style is simple, having a bold font pulls the eyes to that more instead of the image. For me I like the font to compliment the image and not take away from it. Also, I've added another one of Sam Fisher. I think I've captured the new grungyness that the game shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyGuyGary Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 I've added a new Darkness one, and I must say, I'm actually pleased with it. All my life with everything I've done I've never thought: that's really good. In my mind I always find faults and thus not like it. But with this one I'm actually happy. I also changed two of the signatures because I really didn't like them. I still don't like them very much, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cacky Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 You're getting much better, mate. I really like the smudging on the Darkness one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamilyGuyGary Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Do you mean the scanlines? Yeah, and the box and rectangle likes shap effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cacky Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Yeah, and the box and rectangle likes shap effects. For the scanlines, I made a 6x6 canvas and zoomed in lots. I then took the pencil tool and made a line going from the bottom right to the top left. Save this as a pattern. I then made a box and filled it with the scanlines pattern. For the shape effects, I made a box on an interesting point. I then went copy visible -> paste as new layer. I then moved it to a decent spot and displaced it. To displace, go to Filters -> Map -> Displace. I hope that made sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cacky Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 OK. For the straight lines, get your pencil tool and draw a straight line. Then, go to Filters - Blur - Motion Blur and set the angle to 0 and the length to around 80. Then chage the layer mode so it blends in. For the scan lines, this video explains it quite well.

FamilyGuyGary Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Does it work the same way on photoshop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cacky Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Does it work the same way on photoshop? I would imagine so. The long line definately will, a Ps user told me about it, I then did it on GIMP. Good luck! BTW, I really like the Timeshift tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamilyGuyGary Posted August 28, 2009 Author Share Posted August 28, 2009 I thought I'd add some drawings of mine. I got some new pencils the other day for technology when I'm in Sixth Form and thought I'd test them. It is much better when you have a wider selection of pencils rather than just having the standard HB. Also, does anyone know how to resize them to a more appropriate size?

Cacky Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Also, does anyone know how to resize them to a more appropriate size? Do you mean in Ps? Well, in GIMP, you go to Image --> Scale Image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamilyGuyGary Posted August 28, 2009 Author Share Posted August 28, 2009 Oh, I thought you could resize them on the forums, so they're not as big as they are. And then to see the whole of it you click on it and it opens up in a new window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
