Re: NEW CONTEST FOR ALL YOU ARTISTS!

I can see all of them now. And they're very very good!
PS I love the 'They create it, we debate it' one, very true. I think SS will like that one too.
HE I prefer your favourite one too, but if as you say it's too cartoonish then I would opt for the first one I mentioned as my favourite.
The postcards are a great idea! Love the holiday snaps theme.

Re: NEW CONTEST FOR ALL YOU ARTISTS!

Thanks for the comments. The more the better! I cna't improve it without people letting me know what to do.

I'll start to tidy up my version and post a final clean version. I don't have much time to work on these during the week and next weekend is my birthday! So I don't think I'll be in any state to use my computer! :yay :bonk

Re: NEW CONTEST FOR ALL YOU ARTISTS!

I just made another attempt. Got this idea for a postcard and went straight ahead and made it. And then made it again because my comp crashed due to insufficient memory (try having 5 high res images open in photoshop, running illustrator and browsing firefox on several pages with high res sideshow images on all at the same time.....damn computers cant do anything nowadays!! :mad).

Anyhow, here's the image:

Just in case, I could always change the word Babes into Class (or something in that range). You know, in case the women find it degrating. I just liked the word because we do have great women on our forums and we also collect female figures. That and most of the people on SDCC will be guys

And just a little fun fact :
The background for Anna is the inner yard of the Bran Castle who, as you all know, is also known as Vlad the Impaler or Dracula.

Here's the tidy version:

Here's a close up as I think the detail of the background is lost in the above image (it sort of looks like newspaper print):

I hope you can see them!

Here's my final version with corrected URL:

I can easily add a 5mm bleed all the way around so you get a nice cut edge (no white bits where the print plate might move ).

Re: NEW CONTEST FOR ALL YOU ARTISTS!

I haven't got a hi-res version of Legolas & Gimli on Arod but here's a new version to give you an idea (because it's low-res, it's blured and I didn't clean the edges):

One last version before I get ready for my birthday BBQ and drink! :hat

Remember, I have no hi-res images of Legolas & Gimli on Arod, so they might look a bit rubbish. But as soon as I get the hi-res versions, they're look sweet!

Re: NEW CONTEST FOR ALL YOU ARTISTS!

These last few designs have been good but don't quite stack up to mine on the first page. When should I expect to see the winner's email?

CONGRATULATIONS to Psycho Cenobite for the winning postcard! It's on the way to the printer as I type.

A lot of these designs were great - I'd especially like to single out HighElven who did 3 designs, all of which got high marks in the popular vote.

Psycho also won the slogan contest with his "they create it, we debate it" line.

Congrats Psycho and your special prize of....well, something special, is winging it's way to you as soon as I figure out what the hell it is!
