this is gona be my pic for when i feel like changing the artwork of my stick in the future when i feel like changin it since vega is my main on sf4. i still feel like its undone and can be better.but hey its my 1st photoshop art lol. theres one thing i wana do but dont no how. i wanted to put vega on the bottom mid of the pic in griffiti. and blazeu25 on the top right of the pic. but idk how i didt find the graffiti font. anyways thnks to the ppl that did my guy art work bc it encouraged me to do some myself. if u guys wana give me ideas to finish this one go right ahead ill give u the photoshop file. cody will prolly be my next artwork. now i just need to buy some yellow and blue buttons and stick balls lol.
Looks good. None of the images are stretched out or anything. That SF2HDR image of Claw I would probably try to fill in, since his right arm is cut off [HIS right arm, not our view as right, if that makes sense].
You’ll prolly learn about that stuff later though. Filling in gaps. Keep up the keep up though. Photoshop’s a fun program to tinker with, especially when you want something right at the moment and it isn’t available [i.e. wallpapers of Zangief punching a hole through Mr.Krabbs.]
o and sas by any chance u have a hrap 1 button layout page? i wana put it on the artwork to see what buttons r gona block what . and i might need it for the future. and i appricate the advice. ur one of the reason i started messing with photoshop lol
Ah, you filled in the claw. Good stuff. And now that I look at it, the old one was kinda stretched. This one looks dope though.
As for having the HRAP1 layout, I don’t have it but I’ll go rummage around Tech Talk to see if it’s in there.
rummages
And I found this. Dunno if that’s the one you’re after though, and if it still works since that post was made in beginning 06. LoL.
And wha!? My ego’s growing. Ooo, nevermind. I put it back into check. Haha. Good shit. Just don’t give up on Photoshop. It’s one of the best time killers I’ve ever had [before GGPO entered the mix].
thnks alot sas.really appricate the advice. and nah the zip doesnt work so i still need to find a hrap1 layout lol.but now that my vega artwork is completed and ready to get printed out i started on my cody.so far i came up with this.
still very eary right now. but i think those r the only 3 pics ill need unless me or someone find a way better looking pic to add up. i just have one problem right now, is that i have no idea of what back ground should i do lol. i dont no how to do them. my cuzin helped me out on the vega back ground. but i have no talent on background making lol. after cody is done sephiroth is next and ill have my 4 artworks for my stick^^.any subjections on the background sas?
Since you have Cody busting through the wall as your centerpiece, you could go the route of having a concrete wall as the background. I was going to say ‘brick,’ but that wouldn’t flow too well since he isn’t busting through bricks. LoL.
In case you didn’t know, you can go to IMAGE->ADJUSTMENTS->LEVELS to change the brightness of whichever image that you’re currently on in your LAYERS window.
*IMAGE is located at the top menu bar, next to FILE, EDIT, etc in case you can’t find it.
I mention that because it’s a good way to blend two pics together. For example, I notice that the Cody in the middle seems to be light on color. If you found a dark concrete wall, it might not blend too well. By going to LEVELS, you can change either to try to get them to match one anothers color balance and get that better ‘flow.’
If you decide to go another route though, it’s all good. Main thing, ESPECIALLY when the artwork is for yourself is to have the finished product being something that you like.
hmm didt no that. but the middle cody is not really light. i did it myself with fill and opacity. but hmm where can i find a concrte wall that will match with the pick lol. time to google.
Ha, yeah I used that first one to test it out right after I made my post. It looked good to me with the pic at full opacity. Dunno if it’s big enough though for a stick, or if would still look aight if/when stretched out more.
If you got questions or need feedback, just holla at me. I ain’t doing shit today [that I know of]. I’ll be on AIM too if needed.
