Default Request: Photoshop Sig

So I've been rocking the quote "Face it Ryo, Your not fit to sweep for me!" from King of Fighters 98 for a good 3 or more years now on FFR/BMS/wherever sigs are used [and the quote really does use "your" since I think the game itself got it wrong in it's original release]. I was wondering if someone was willing to make a proper banner for it featuring the character Yuri Sakazaki from the aforementioned game. I will state up front that as far as credits go, I only have 15+k but am willing to negotiate (Like, I could step a file or something).


Am wanting it to be about as long as the SpinItUP banner that you see in my signature already but possibly triple the height. Must have the quote and hopefully a good picture of Yuri. KoF98 used a Red and Blue motif in the game itself, but was White or Red/Yellow in alot of the promotional stuff. I would want to stick with Red/White in the sig (Yellow is such an ugly color half the time when not done right). As far as anything else, you guys are free to experiment.

Much thanks for anyone who gives it a shot!



EDIT: I've google image'd the phrase. My avatar popped up. rofl

Here's something simple for a start.



Came up with some questions while working on this. Can do any edits you like or come up with another design. And other people could try this. Soo.

> I like using fan art, but I can use official art if you would prefer that.
> I made sure her headband was in there, but I don't know if you wanted more of the character in it.
> I used all capitals because the winning messages in the game do. Also did a simple gradient background for that. If you'd like anything else there or some texture or something.
> Maybe there could be little text of the character or game names for anyone who doesn't recognize the quote and character.
> Did a little fading on the text and some light drop shadows. If you like that level of effects or not.

Arf.

Long time no see, Silvuh. Knew you'd have my back again!

It is simple, but you got the idea down pat. Your points are pretty valid though and I think we should tweak them a little like you are suggesting.

1] Fan art is fine so long as it isn't pure fan service.
2]I would like more of the character but am glad you took the time to make sure the head band was present. Since AoF2 it's kind of apart of her character. You must play the games yourself, eh?
3]I'm horrible at trying to pick textures lol. Anything you decide to add will probably be good so long as you don't spray paint Happy Rainbow Bright Glitter Number 53 or something lol. The missing Exclamation point is the first thing I noticed, though. I want to say it was in the game but even if it isn't I would like that added (it's how I read the quote anyways lol. Now that I think of it, it could have just had a period....but w/e)
4]Not a bad idea. if you can get a little KoF logo in the corner that'll be sweet
5]It's fine. Fade's are cool

Mhm, hiii again~ All the corners were kind of taken up, so I thought a big F behind the text would be a nice solution. Also, to show a little more of the character, I got a couple off Google.







1) Yeah, skimmed over a biiit of that while browsing art sites.
2) I do think emphasis on the face rather than having it zoomed out to see the body makes it feel more ... direct or something. I haven't played any of the games, but I watched some videos and looked up some information.
3) Added a little texture and the exclamation point.
4) Was the big edit, so I mentioned it up top.
5) Whee~

Whichever character art you like best, I can do more tweaks with that one if there are still more to be made.

All of these turned out really good actually. The middle is my favorite but I might have to rotate them lol. I'll take it!
1] ROFL gotta love that internet.
2.1]Yeah, it is a direct quote after all (teehee)
2.2]wow, you are missing out. The new one is actually really good compared to tournament fighters these days although I kind of grew up with SNK games and I love that cheesy taste they leave in your mouth XD. I think KoF98 is like 10 bucks on Xbox Live/PSN go check it out sometime.
3]Much thanks

You never did mentioned if you wanted credits lol. Will hold off on putting it up until you get back with me on that.

Haha, I just realized what you meant by "rotate them". At first I was like, surely you don't want them rotated 90 degrees or turned upside down ... Maybe you want the graphics reflected? So I made this:



Then I read your post again, and I realized—oh, rotating between the three images, haha, right. Well, here's a little more variation for you, la la.

So about payment, you can tell I wasn't even thinking about that when I made these. I have enough credits, so that won't be necessary. If you'd like to do something, perhaps I could make a spinfile request when SiU is ready to become a thing again. That will be cool.

That looks really good actually.

Request it and it shall be granted! (or at least stepped for the game XD) I pretty much have stated I wouldn't do spinfiles again if the game got up and running but I already have like 3 songs I want to do anyway lol. Hey, It's totally not going back on what you said 3 years ago if it's less then 15 files, riiiight?
