FrEaK Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I say sin city, but I'm not to hot on the no images used thing, might make it a bit difficult for the noobs (points to self) that would make it more of a contest of the gods of PDN Quote Site: RIP =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkbark00 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I'm fine with the Sin City theme. I do, however, think that the amount of source imagery should be limited. Maybe the exception can be that you can use pictures that you took yourself.

jake2k Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 how bout this: Outside images can be used but you must provide all of the source images with your submission, that way everyone can see just how much work you actually did.

barkbark00 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 That is acceptable. Failing to provide source images = disqualification. Quote  Take responsibility for your own intelligence. -Rick Brewster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 It's a comic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sin_City Which was adapted as a movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0401792/ Quote No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainshadow Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Ah. Well, there might be noobs like me who don't know what Sin city is, so they won't be able to enter. I don't think thats the best choice then. Quote Do not click! Time flies when you're eating a donut. My dA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkbark00 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 The style in Sin City is highly stylized, high contrast B&W which usually makes use of a single primary color to emphasize an object of interest. EDIT: This Tutorial actually covers some of the basic idea. Quote  Take responsibility for your own intelligence. -Rick Brewster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake2k Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 the point of the sotw is for everyone to improve there skills by making a sig, (poorly worded, srry) it doesnt matter how skilled you are now.

Myrddin Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 So is this agreed then, a Sin City style theme? Outside images can be used but you must provide all of the source images with your submission, that way everyone can see just how much work you actually did. Totally agree.

cjmcguinness Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 You're supposed to wait till I get the sotw thread started. Sorry, couldn't wait... Love Sin City and just had to have a go. Consider this inspiration for others and I'll have a go at a different one when the thread officially starts. -CJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barkbark00 Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Might as well get the ball rolling (in true Blue Peter style, here's one I prepared earlier). The face is mine - I don't usually look this sinister (honestly). I used this picture of Dublin and this image of a Gun That is really nice! EDIT: I just noticed that it seems like it is always raining in Frank Miller's Comic version.
