Hello everyone!

Today I was supposed to do something, but I forgot what it was, so instead I made a huge promotional poster for an, as of yet fictional, movie or game. It turned out like this:

People with low resolutions on their monitors, beware!


Is it any good?

I like it.

But I think that the ninja star used in the title shouldnt be exactly the same as the one used to tac the poster up, maybe it should be gold? Also, something about the bottom looks funny.

I just has a 2D Design project where I designed a full sized 27" x 40" One Sheet for the class. I'll have to take a picture of it and post it.

Yeah, I should probably make it so that it matches the text a bit better. I was actually going to use it as a shadow layer for the other star but it accidentally found its way to the "I" and I thought it looked fun so I left it there (and rotated it a little bit).
Also, something about the bottom looks funny.
There is a small black half-square in the lower right that I didn't notice until I had uploaded. I think it happened because I used a gradient on the wrong layer... Is that the funny-looking thing?

I think the best part of it is just the "kthxbye" at the end of the wanted poster.

:D I was wondering if anyone would notice that!


I made another one. Or... well I made a different background. Soon I can start an ad campaign!

Fixed the holes on the shurikens, too...

I just have to say, the text on the sign is hilarious. :lol:

Oroku Saki? Isn't that the Shredder?

The text is quite amusing.

It is, but the samurai on the poster is called "Oraku Sake".
*reads again*
Or that was the idea anyway, I see now that I actually spelled it "Saki"...

But yes, the name of the samurai is a reference to Turtles. But one that only someone who has some knowledge of TMNT would get. Google "Oraku Sake" and you get only rubbish :mrgreen:

Heh, glad to know I noticed the signs first. Oh, and the Zombie one is a little unreadable on the far side, especially on that bottom line. I recommend making "mystical" a whole word, or atleast giving the words of the sign a little more contrast.

It's definately a lowly sign I would listen to, however.

Yes, the huge version much more readable :twisted: (the one I posted is scaled down 40% or something)


And behold poster #3:
(now with ice and parts of Lord Hand mk II)

With snowfall and darkness:

I tried putting a long piece of ice under the text instead of the sword but it didn't look so good. Maybe I should put something in the tree instead... Smoke bombs or something...
