[QUOTE=Supacasey;18934629]Question still stands.[/QUOTE] Let's put it this way: There are a huge amount of Soldiers compared to Demomen: Soldier almost outnumbers Demo 2:1 in the war. This being said, it is much more likely that an artist will be on the Soldier's side than the Demo's side. Therefore: More Soldiers = More Soldier love. Less Demomen = Less Demo Love. Does that make sense? [editline]03:54AM[/editline] [QUOTE=bigbadbarron;18934703]Oh i get it, cause he is a minority [sp]Being scottish and all[/sp][/QUOTE] Yes this is it.

Finally found out what to make. I'm a soldier supporter but I just made this for shits n giggles. [URL=http://img35.imageshack.us/i/jugglerwaremark.jpg/][IMG]http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/2362/jugglerwaremark.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Took AGES to do the soldier.

Thanks. First time using Illustator/pen tool too.

[editline]12:51PM[/editline] [QUOTE=BuDSpOoNce;18935056]Thanks. First time using Illustator/pen tool too.[/QUOTE] I take it Illustrator is better for vectoring and shit, then? I haven't used it ever. Is it pretty easy to learn if you already know your way around photoshop? Or is it a completely different ballgame?
The first thing you see is the Soldier. This makes me think it's a poster supporting the Soldier.. Perhaps if you made him look idiotic it would make it more obvious. Other than that, nice job!

Obviously the soldier grabs our attention, but the red TODAY brings our eyes down to the main point of the piece.
I think it's wonderfull. Nazi propaganda showing the "greedy jew" didn't promote jews either.
waiting for 1984 big brother is watching you poster parody
[QUOTE=Vault-tech;18936728]waiting for 1984 big brother is watching you poster parody[/QUOTE] Was already done. Was meh.

Even though I know my way so well around Photoshops interface I get really lost trying to find out where everything is and what does what. It does have many tools that makes certain things easier though. Still getting the hang of it. The pen tool has a really usefull feature though that makes any anchor point smooth withouth having to manually drag the handles out.

I quite like the Pen tool. That's damn handy.
How can I make gmod save images in a format with a better quality than jpg? It's so long since I played it, I forgot.
[QUOTE=Killuah;18937482]How can I make gmod save images in a format with a better quality than jpg? It's so long since I played it, I forgot.[/QUOTE] I don't know about making them save in something other than JPG, but you can just change the quality to 100% in the settings tab I think.
I raise my non-existant hat to all you contest contributers.
How do you guys create the scratches and all that stuff?
All my contributions are pure shit compared to all of yours. I spent ages on it too, but it's nothing compared to these. [editline]03:51PM[/editline] I need a paper crease effect but I can't seem to make it. Can anyone save a photoshop file with it on a layer?

I don't usually do anything in Photoshop and had to read up pretty much everything. So here is mine(low res) I know I can't win anything, but damn that was fun! [img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/propaganda_low_res2.png[/img]
[QUOTE=Killuah;18940274] [img]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/propaganda_low_res2.png[/img][/QUOTE] No I can't BEAR it
I'd feel bad if my entry won over these amazing ones.
I didn't want the emphasis on YOU, I thought it's more important to think about the pain that the families of those millions have to suffer.
I'm so entering a poster.
thats nice
