How is this so far? It’s from an amazing skyrim wallpaper i found a bit ago.

Finally finished up that Asuka art. I’m satisfied with it.

that guitar looks sweet :stuck_out_tongue:

sounds like your art isn’t cut around the buttons well

i want that asuka art, lol it looks sick, there is a lot goin on with it though, looking at it again it is hard to tell what exactly is going on, maybe spread some things out a bit?

Too much overlapping. Can’t really make out anything except the one holding the guitar.

I can see you have an eva unit in the background, but since it’s face is mostly cut off by the buttons it’s hard to make out what im actually looking at.
it’s appealing at first glance, but when you really take time to see what’s in the picture it starts to look a little cluttered and confusing.

i dont think you need that background pic of asuka in there. you can barely see her as it as, and the eva could be positioned better.

as far as dimensions, i can make it as big as i want, but for the sake of the printer im using (and the people being nice enough to let me print) i wouldn’t want to do anything too crazy. the printer is 35 inches wide though. now as far as the cost, it would largely depend on where you live, because shipping is kind of expensive. the last time i sent 2 sheets of cardstock to someone it cost me like 25 dollars.

good as is but my concern is the character on the left is too close to the dustwasher and when the stick starts to move the face will be covered.

Hello! First post here! Mine is based on Gurren Lagann (Kamina). Hope you’ll appreciate it ! =)

That’s a very clean looking stick. Nice work!

Thank you ! =)

I actually had to go back after reading this, cos I didn’t initially see any other Asuka’s at all.
I’d remove the BG Asuka dude. the rest looks awesome.

This template looks amazing.
The only thing that strikes me is that the Left-hand figure seems to be a much lower res than the right-hand one.
But if that’s a stylistic choice (and I can see why it might be) then I apologise.

My first attempt making some stick art, its gone through a few iterations so far so I think it’ll be printed soon, but any comments will still be good:

It was all part of the same picture, but I’ll see what I can do. The idea was a flood of ideas and colors, but I’ll try to give it some more cohesion.

maybe put a Gaussian blur on the background to blend it? Or clip her out and throw a new one underneath

Add a picture of Shiro’s Nine Lives Blade Works: http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Nine_Lives
Also, I’d make the magic circuits look more intense: http://typemoon.wikia.com/wiki/Magic_circuit

I was considering exactly that. The only thing that was a separate object is the Asuka guitar picture. I’m thining I’ll go with another eva picture entirely. Just looking for something with artistical softness.

Trying something new. Created a hybrid of all TE templates in one so if needed be I can always just copy and paste to fit any style (reg, extended, full). I think what took the longest was the vector hilt and the render of the logo. C&C are welcome.
