YO! Critique this poster eh?

Thanks Ethan. Yea the font is plain. This sucker is officially done now though 'cause I sent it off before I checked in here.

Btw Ethan you can never be too cool for igloos and eskimos.:pleased:

lol PR Iā€™ve been waiting for someone to point that out. It was a real pain just to move the text up half an inch and I was tired. Itā€™s funny how design balance works because originally when I didnā€™t have 99 cents at the top it looked fine.

Looks good CG, Iā€™m feelin it GJ. I like the difuse glow, works real well w/ that image. Only problem I have is all those lines in the text, I see what you were tryin to do but I think it would be stronger if they werenā€™t there, IMO. Very nice though.

I should start putting my critique stuff in here in D&D LoL, itā€™s like pulling teeth to get a critique in S&C.

lol. Simplistik I always thought that S&C was for websites. Your work is awesome from what Iā€™ve seen. If youā€™re hard up for a critique go ahead and pm me when you start a thread.

As for the lines. lol. Definitely not my best scratch effect.

yeah i think we scare the people in showcase - things are at like 105 views with 11 commentsā€¦

maybe itā€™s because our work leaves them

speechless?

muahahahaha

99cents? 5 dollars?

already mentioned :P, read above :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Hey bombing I replaced the old picture ^^^^ seeing as they liked it so much they wanted me to make it a flyer as well. You can see the noise effect way better on this one.

ooh, thatā€™s cool, I like how you have it throughout the flyer/poster rather than just the text, it certainly makes it coolerā€¦

this certainly is top notch :slight_smile:

LoL, thxā€¦ Iā€™m never ā€œhard upā€ for a critique, I just like creative feedback, maybe something I didnā€™t do that could be doneā€¦ w/e. You should lounge around S&C now and again, yea i got 74 or so view on my thread and only 4 replys or soemthing like that. I think from now on though Iā€™ll post here in D&D.

I was looking at the flyer, and the noise seems real extreme now, when you look at it as a whole. I almost thought it looked better a little more subtle, and knocked back. Eh, I dunno thatā€™s my .02

cries out in agony MY EYES! O GOD MY EYES! I CANā€™T BELIEVE WHAT Iā€™M READING!

Donā€™t like the noise eh? < yosemite sam voice > OOOO themā€™s fightinā€™ words < / yosemite sam voice > lol

I really really dig the noise. I mean Iā€™d marry the noise on this piece if I could. lol

Seriously though, Iā€™m going to check out S&C right now and Iā€™d better not find any noise in any of your work. hehe

I like it more this way :P, donā€™t you worrry about that noise

i think the noise looks good, just weird when its shrunk down lilke that, (i mean when its printed, it will probably look a lot different, and better). What is up with the www.playtimebowling.com, that just looks wierd, i like just plain white text personallyā€¦

o and simplistik, do have links to any of your workā€¦ i mean all ur sites just have splash pages, do you have anywork i could see (battles, sites, print, etc.)? Sorry for being off topic.

looks like a movie poster or somthin

I have a logo sheet (about 1/10 or less of all my work) and what not that I put together for 2 ppl that wanted to battle me:

anywho, Iā€™ve got lots of stuff I just donā€™t advertise. I put my stuff up in S&C if you just want to look at some of my posts. most of my portfolio is for Reebok which Iā€™m under a NDA. But DDD can vouch for me too :slight_smile:

As for the noise, yeaā€¦ sorry :(. I may start a thread in S&C and dedicate it to a image I do w/ all noise :). I did notice something else, is there a slight dropshadow under the words? If so I like that, makes it pop off the design, and makes it look better, if not must be my eyes, and maybe you should think about a dropshadow, LoL.

I think the movie poster looks is what he was goin for

lol mlkdave for the record I didnā€™t create that website.

Yea there is a slight drop shadow on the lettering. The $0.99 was created after finishing the freaky friday lettering and if you look closely you can see I had some trouble matching them up.

I remember seeing some of your reebok work and it was really cool.

S&C really is dead. Itā€™s a shame when such nice work doesnā€™t get commented on http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?p=579543#post579543

Nice Work CG,
just the text located on the bottom, is to impacted. But otherwise awsome work :slight_smile:

i say that CG, Simplistik, MLK, Ethan, and I form some sort of Coalition for somethingā€¦something having to do with artā€¦

whoā€™s with me

:stuck_out_tongue:

Do we have a secret handshake? If so Iā€™m in.

I think the more important question isā€¦ do we get donations?
