Well, I toiled all week long, but at last I made something finished for my Aion legion. The shield was taken out from earlier versions, because at the lower image sizes seen actually in-game the details (that looked bitchin' at high resolution) were a blur. Blur is bad. Blurring is very bad. Simplicity is the winner. So I simplified. Swords over shields. Took out some of the little frills that were originally in the image. Fixed all the little blotches of error. Simplified the colors and made a prominent focal point (the silver sword).
Just imagine this on a dark/black background. It sticks out even more then. Want a little help?
This is great work.
ReplyDeletethis is beautiful im gona recomend it for my guild if you dont mind
ReplyDeleteI agree, it's simple enough without a sheild but complex enough to be eye chatching and unique. I love the contrast that black and orange/yellow/gold create, gives it a fire-in-the-dark feel and adds demention to the symbol.
ReplyDeleteWhats the sheild look like? Is this for a game? I ended here directly from a link on GKC.
Well, as the title suggests, this artwork is for my legion's use in the MMORPG "Aion: The Tower of Eternity", which is brought to us by NCSoft, the same people bringing us Guild Wars 2.
ReplyDeletealso, to the anonymous poster before, now that i CAN make my own comments to my own blog (blogger was being a bastard before), no please do not use my image for your guild, it was made for my own. I will gladly give out the "precursor" art work, and the inspiration pieces that I light-boxed from then altered, but this image as it is right now, is currently in use by the legion run by me and some gaming friends.
