The STICK ART REQUEST Thread: READ THE OP!

Kid Kaos,

That template is awesome. I like the second one with the white text. If you could convert that to the SE template, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks a lot.

Hey everyone. This may sound a bit selfish seeing as I solely registered on these forums for this… But would you mind helping me out? I’ve been up all night and before trying to catch some z’s I wanted to make a nice stick design. I haven’t used PS in years and I’m getting angry and I’d appreciate some help with this… I’m about to get a TE very soon and I’d like to mod it with a design similar to my tragedy. I just can’t get the lighting and blending down and it’s driving me mad at this point. Not to mention the excessive use of brushes that I couldn’t fix. I’m also scared that when I actually get the mod done, it’d look pixelated… The only thing I’d want extra is an ā€œAnthonyCFā€ thrown in there. Unless you guys think this will be good and not turn out bad when I go to Kinkos, then I wouldn’t want you all to go through the motions. I thank you in advance.

Idk if it’s too much of a crappy render, but I’m looking for anything with a Megan Fox or a sexy Asian like Elly Tran Ha… I need their love to fuel my flaming will during matches…

hows this let me know so i can upload u the psd

Kid Kaos: Lol, damn you, I was gonna jack my own background for sticks XD. Good work though. When you cut characters out, sometimes they look good with a little Outer Glow or Drop Shadow, that way they look more apart of the background than placed ontop.

AnthonyCF: Your girl looks out of proportion, like you stretched her vertical without stretching her equally horizontal, so she looks really long and skinny. Maybe that’s just her or the pic, but it just doesn’t look normal, hehe.

Also, real people are difficult to work into to rendered backgrounds. The contrast between her whiteness and the blackness of the background is probably the blending problem you’re running in to. I’d save a ā€œwork fileā€ with all the layers in tact, then merge everything together, do some curve/brightness/saturation adjustments (or just auto-levels), dupilcate the layer, ontop do a gaussian blur at about 3-4px, then set its blend mode to multiply/lighten/overlay, maybe mess with the hue/saturation/lightness levels of the top layer until everything looks well colored. I just kind of stop anywhere during those steps where I think it looks blended. If it still doesn’t blend, you may have to consider something more drastic like dropping a gradient layer ontop of everything and seeing what it looks like in different blend modes/changing its colors. There’s a preset brown and white one that looks awesome if you go diagonal from the top left to bottom right corner, I whore that one quite a bit.

Vegit814: I may be able to recreate it, but it looks like a lot of work .. I’ll stick around and see if somebody posts one.

Aoi84: I actually used the background for my own TEs piece just changed the color to orange grey and pink ill upload a pic tomorrow maybe, but when he said silver background ur ink splotches were the first thing to hit me to look good in silver, and I’m still getting a hang of photoshop, not to savvy at all of it so I still come here for requests sometimes, tho most ppl don’t take them up haha

That looks awesome, man. Please upload the psd. Thank you so much for making that.

Thanks a lot for the tips. This is what I’ve got so far using your tips. Still trying to figure out what I’m going to do to blend the render in a little better.

On my screen it looks really pixel-y… It’s probably just because I can’t fit the resolution on my screen.

I’d do a ctrl+U and turn the middle ā€œSaturationā€ bar on the whole pic down a couple notches.

Not too much more you can do about the pixelatoin. If you started with a low res pic, you gotta ride with it and hope for the best = . If the full PSD is in high res, the actual print may look a little a better.

hey man i got the psd

cammySEwholes.psd

i made a few small tweaks like a drop shadow on cammy nothing major it actually looks better, lmk if everything works out

This looks totally badass. Thank you so much, Kid Koas.

I am needing help. I am wanting to mod my stick with art and i am having problems finding good pics of Claw. I would really like something with one of these pics

  1. varges’s deviantART gallery,
  2. http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=vega#/drrk2m
    3.http://wallbase.net/wallpaper/667701
    or something like it. I really like the color scheme and claws flag in the background. I would also like my handle, Trippfan, to be on the bottom left hand corner of the art work in the SF Font or something that goes with the design. This would be for a TE Stick and i would appreciate any help that i could get thanks.

Again, a big thanks to Kid Kaos for the sick Cammy SE template. I should have that printed soon and on the arcade stick.

I have another request. I’m doing a complete Seimitsu makeover on my Tekken 6 stick and want to do a Steve Fox theme. Could anyone do anything with these images? I’m thinking Steve on the left, with the British flag on the right under the buttons, with his name below that. If possible, a dark background to contrast the off white of the case.

Hello guys I have a request for a Art Template for my Madcatz TE

This is it

thanks a bunch!

Just wondering if anyone can help me with a stick art for my Madcatz TE Stick Round 2

I just want these two pictures on it

http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1378.snc4/165075_187686147910842_100000083758252_674533_5875917_n.jpg

and this one on the left side of the stick

http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs760.ash1/165184_187686247910832_100000083758252_674534_2022924_n.jpg

with the whole background white and you can put some effects on it if you want (sorry I don’t have a creative mind so just put whatever you want) just as long as it is in the Red Yellow Green theme of the stick

and also if you can put the quote ā€œlove the life you live.
live the life you love.ā€ somewhere on the stick

Thanks

Ugh I don’t like it everytime I come back here for yet another request =\

I recently got a TE-S stick, and so the templates I had that were made for me which were for Rd.2 TEs aren’t … well, fitting.

Aoi84, if you’re still here and you somehow still have my music template that you made around a month ago, is it possible to get it done fitting for a TE-S stick? Or if you can just cook up something similar to it.

If anyone else wants to take the request, just PM me. I’ll paypal someone a dollar or something LOL =\

I might be able to work on that steve fox stick for u during the week, I have the blank template, already cuz I modded the T6 wireless already, If I do get to work on it obviously ill post it up… have a good one and happy new year

If anyone can help a brotha out I would like to make a request for my TE-S stick.

Here’s the template: http://www.tek-innovations.com/arthobbies/downloads/Art%20Hobbies%20TE%20Full%20Panel%20Template_Kinkos%20Ver.psd

I would like to use this scan: http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs50/f/2009/312/7/c/Soi_Afro_Samurai_by_kitolo.jpg
and the character scan of this: http://img1.gelbooru.com//images/105/ede172a69cea00ff54e0fff5692009500604d733.jpg

I couldn’t find a better scan with just the character for the first pic. For a background I would like a yin-yang theme that looks sexy and cool so it can match the character. Having my handle (Momotaro) and the kanji for it on there would be nice.

Ding: I just scaled it up a little bit for the full panel.
