Hi! I made some "pixel art" versions of the Fringe glyphs. I made a banner out of one, and that's all I've uploaded so far...so I'll show you that first then add on.

They took a heck of a lot of time...click by click :amazed: But that's okay! I think they turned out alright. I'd like to hear what you think. :)

(if you look really, reeeely close, you can see the Phi symbol on the frog's back when it's not yellow.)

More to come, I promise!

The yellow's a bit hard to see on F-F's greyish background...but it looks good on a white or black background.

Have a good day!

That's really pretty! So, about this pixel art, do you have to make the images pixel by pixel?

Sorry for the double post... :what:

But I took a detour from the glyphs and decided to make Gene the cow, slurping on some Lo Mein. It was inspired by the scene with Astrid, Gene and Walter eating Chinese in front of the TV. :ohyeah:

Enjoy!

More goodies!

Here's the butterfly glyph:

http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/ebiltom4t0/findthepatternbutterfly.gif
And the leaf glyph, which I don't think is as good as the butterfly or frog:

http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/ebiltom4t0/animatedleaf1.gif
(I was far too lazy to add and animate "find the pattern" on this one)

And Mr. Papaya, which I absolutely couldn't resist:

http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/ebiltom4t0/MrPapaya1.png

Enjoy! :D Next I'm planning on doing Walter's "Halo" machine, which should occupy me for a loooong long time :amazed: Oh well, I'll do whatever I can to survive this darn hiatus!

I love the cut with scissors style, i've tried this once myself, and it turned so bad i've never didi it again :haha:

I see you found the fonts ;)

May I say something ? A -constructive- criticism :
I would have (i said would!) put the "your own mind" line more on the right, just next to Walter. (aligned with(?) the "terrible thing" line)
Do I make any sense ? :confused0006:

Even though the lyrics are not meant to be read, just for a graphic effect, i'd have used a cursive font for the rest. So it would "follow" the word love.
Great colors on this one too !

To Elliot: What she said. :haha: But thank you all very much! I appreciate it. And lez: The cursive fonts I have didn't even look like text that small. And while it's supposed to be too small to read, it should remotely look like text (which the cursive fonts do not.)

Now I'm repeating myself. :what:

And to Sam: But of course! It makes me happy when people snag my banners :D

No, you're a sweetheart, purpledew. Just remember how much pain I went through to make that banner...[insert innocent smile here]

Anyway, thanks to everyone for the comments! I'm afraid I don't have more things for you than this, but I'll be arting my butt off today!

So, without further ado, I present to you my measly bits of art:

^ Those two are the same because neither one's colors turned out quite right--I desperately need another monitor calibration, for one, and Photoshop makes yellows all orangey and wonky. In the second one, the blue is too green. I'm sure I could fix it and take some more time, but I honestly can't be bothered :haha:

Enjoy!

Hey, TOC (or knock knock ? :D) very brilliant !!! I love your stuff !!
Why do you hate the last one ? It's really awesome. And it's a great idea to make some banners with monsters or ugly things. It's funny I had this idea some days ago, but I had not time to make it and I think sincerely you're so talented to create it. It's a very creative work, I love that !! :bravo:

07-09-2009, 02:37 AM
Thank you, Stephy :) I've warmed up to the last banner some, but I think I don't like it because the monster's rather hard to see; he blends in rather than being the focal point. But other than that, I don't really know. Some of my work, I have an attachment to, but some I just don't appreciate as much. :what:

Making ugly things pretty, that's my specialty! :haha: I've always had a fascination with monsters of all sorts, and I really liked this one. Well...not its larvae. Definitely not its larvae. :sSic_yuk:

mostly because to the colors/tons ! and the text of course.

Banners with screencaps of Unleashed are not easy to do, since the sewers are dark, and so are the caps. And trying to make them clearer, makes them -sometimes- don't look good. I've tried, myself, but gave up. :)

anyway, great job !

Retour à la place qui a pris mon esprit loin (?? difficult to read this) : not really correct in French, but could be "Back to the place which took my spirit far" (?? I guess it's not really correct in english too :haha:)
Parmi la folie, ces tortueux murs, could be "among the madness, these tortuous walls"
Etes-moi à nouveau la ton... (can't read) indeed it's not correct in French (if you want to say "Am I", in French it is: "Suis-je". It could be "Am I again the... ??"
(oh my god my explanation is really unclear :haha:). Anyway, your banner is awesome !! :happy15:

ces tortueux murs ? :haha:
I'd say "mind" instead of spirit. Though it means spirit too, but in that context I think it's mind.
"Suis-je" : who uses that anyway ? It's much easier to "Je suis". :P

I've been focusing on logos so much, I haven't really been making any Fringe art. I got the quote on the second one from Elliot and Lez. I actually don't like these banners :what: They seem plain and unoriginal to me.

I love the color scheme---like those great Italian Westerns; Once Upon a Time in the West comes to mind--sunwashed, open, raw. Here's a link to the cover art (http://imgkk.com/i/0u5Cr2g9.jpg) for that movie; the top two especially suit that.

Edited to add, I may be wanting to steal those top two sometime for my rotating signature gallery, if you wouldn't mind.

It's beautiful; I love the concept of snapshots together to make a whole, and your color choices are very nice.

-----but; while I am a fan of 'implied meaning', the smaller and smaller the texts get on these banners and wallpapers, the less I get why one would make the text so small as to be unreadable.

Why use text at all, and not some graphic ornament that is not text? Or a calligraphic font in another language, if hidden/secret meaning is what you are after? As text is meant to carry meaning, it gets quite frustrating to me to have lots of text but totally unreadable. Are you intending it to be unreadable (for layout purposes maybe)--or is it readable for you in the original, and just not as reproduced here---??

trippingonclouds
07-17-2009, 06:29 PM
The text wasn't intended to be read. It's just there because I thought the script added a nice touch to the wallpaper, despite being unreadable. It's something I like to do in my art sometimes; you could call it part of my style. So I'm sorry it's frustrating, but it doesn't say anything interesting. No implied meanings, just what's there. :)

I was used to do that kind of banners on a House forum, but people didn't like them, so I stopped.

i think we should do a self-esteem therapy all of us....... don't you think ?

I think the colors in mine are a bit darker and more neutral...but I wouldn't be surprised if we used the same technique. Great minds do think alike.

That banner was more of an experiment than anything else.

Nope. They're all different files, but they're grouped into folders.

The colors do say fresh, don't they? It also reminds me of the intro graphics to the tv program "Dallas" which is I think from before your time, but it had similar slices and if memory serves, sort of moving/vertical blinds kind of effect. Still eye-catching today.

I wasn't in a great mood today, and I figured, "Why not make some art to make myself feel better?" So I did. Well, it's not a great idea to make art when you're in a bad mood, because this banner is probably one of the worst I've done in my time at F-F.

http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk269/ebiltom4t0/othersidebanner1.png

I don't think I did a great job with the hair color change; you can still see bits of blonde. And the colors, to me, are very clowny, too bright and colorful for the seriousness I tried to achieve.

Elliot

Perfect!
This is exactly the feeling those two gave to that scene, even though he was saying one more investigation and he was gone. It looked like he was reassuring her.
..and I enjoyed how they both played it as though they were already very much involved, the way she moved with his movement. . .
