[QUOTE=ZuXer;18940945]Can't wait to see who is winning this![/QUOTE]
Hopefully BAT MAN!'s will. And I hope Valve makes these into actual posters you can purchase on their store. I really want the Miss Soldier poster.
But that probably won't happen because Valve isn't greedy and won't steal money from artists.
[QUOTE=he-did-it-->;18940527]I'd feel bad if my entry won over these amazing ones.[/QUOTE]
Don't worry, it won't.
My tablet broke down and I can't get to work on one

I made a quick one. I don't really have time for a one well done. :(

My 2nd entry (1st is here [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showpost.php?p=18898101&postcount=281[/url])
This one is a parody of a WW1 poster below.

this is amazing. you win
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;18934717]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?
[/QUOTE]
When I said "Question still stands", I more or less meant "Ok then, how come so many people choose soldier over Demo?" I wasn't questioning the logistics of your answer >_<

Eh nothing special. Just went for the rigid geometric look. Fun contest though! And sorry about the watermark, just for safety though I don't think anyone plans on stealing this anyway lol
Also, Bat Man! I'm repeating mostly everyone here but yours = WINRAR
I wish I was good at photoshop. I want a free shirt.
Here's my submission for the contest.

Hayate's is really good, quite reminiscent of actual WWII posters.

It's good, but I'd like it better if the cannons were actually rocket launchers and the planes either weren't there, or they were rockets or something.

No use in watermarking it, it's already been submitted.
My progress so far. I still need to add in the demoman, crop some edges, and probably tone down the grunge.

Amazing.
That looks really nice.
I like to think that mine realisticly shows the struggle between the two classes, artistically and historically.

I put a very small watermark just so no one would steal it, it's in NO way noticeable.

Hey there's a watermark on your picture.
Bat Man and Hayate probably have the best ones I've seen so far.

What poster is this based off of? It looks cool.

I'm no good at PS. I still entered. It's the spirit of Valve!

Thanks for the positive feedback guys. When I started making my poster I realized I can not draw to save my life, but I still wanted the cartoony look. To achieve this I started by exporting the shovel model to 3ds max and setup ground to cast shadows on:
[IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/i3fer9.jpg[/IMG]
I then edited the shovel texture in GIMP to reduce it to mostly solid colors:
[IMG]http://i46.tinypic.com/2cnb8go.png[/IMG]
I used Ink and Paint materials to make any shading caused by lighting to be very simplistic.

Then some editing in GIMP to get the result. It seems like plenty of people don't believe they are capable of creating posters because they believe they don't have a talent for drawing. I wanted to explain my process to show that there are ways to get around your limitations, you just have to attempt new methods to see what works.
That's pretty clever popper.
It was definitely worth the extra work. Cheers, lad.
edit: I just realized that the point that you chose to cast light on fucked up the shadows of all the shadows in the back/left.. :C
:sigh:
I'll never get mine done, too much bloody school work. Never can do what I want because I'm swamped with it. :mad:

Whoa, you've officially blown my mind to pieces.
Dunno if it will win, but I gave it a shot.
