Question:

Should our Match Pics have "vs" in them? If there's going to be a big Vs. between the two pictures I'm not sure if we should.

Paint quality is fine if you save it as a .png and not a .jpg.



Don't really like this one, but making a good pic for these two seems to be impossible. The Guy doesn't even have official art.

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

f*** it, done with that, on to the next one

Big congrats to Black Turtle. Also, turtles are pretty cool

Instead of having the big versions both pink I think the red/blue colors should hold true.

It's got transparency so do a file > open to preserve it, don't just drag it in

don't feel discouraged! all match pics turn out good if you put the effort in, no matter how talented you are!

remember, you can IM me about pretty much any problem you're having. The only thing I CANNOT do is painting, although I'm taking a course in photoshop painting now to fill that hole

I hate using fonts. Any recs for nice looking stuff that can't be stolen from the game?

Not enough Catherine art to work with. =/

Had to make my own KATHERINE logo using the puppet warp tool

--
~Zen

Wait, we're allowed to do VS logos? Would help to eat up the empty space.

I have been waiting 5 years to make a Gilgamesh match pic. The time has finally come.

I wish I could wear skirts and dresses :( -GMUN

I dunno I just made one

I posted mine a few posts up, feel free to steal it. use a selective color adjustment layer on it and alter the cyan levels to change the color of the star if you need to. I hold no copyright on a crappy shape tool

something is off about this but it's first draft worthy, anyway!

What do you guys think? I may make another with Gamecube-era Jill. Also, the names look a little off to me. I tried to use the Nemmy's name from the box art cuz I thought it looked badass, but it didn't really work well for the match pic.

I like it! I hope these two go far enough that we see lots of SFII and IV pics, since I think IV has an awesome art style and really works well for match pics. The only thing I don't like is the big VS in the middle. Lots of people seem to be sticking the vs sign in there, but I think it makes the pics look worse.

I like the background. Is that from the game?

Took out the VS in the Ryu vs. Ken pic --

And then made this but I don't think it has enough Link to be picked! -

Yep. I just google'd "Raccoon City" and it was the second image.



I definitely prefer Nintendo-era (REMake and Umbrella Chronicles) Jill. It's one of my favorite character designs in gaming.

Spent forever searching for a Donkey Kong font. Failed, which is why KKR's name looks weak.
