BIG AVATAR COMPETITION XD

[A-dam]

..::2 entries so far!::..

OK. I am looking for a final fantasy style avatar. For those of you who dont know what FF is: its a RPG video game. Each game has its own box design/cover and I am looking for an avatar in that style. Here are the competition details:

Size of art 125 x 125

Is there an entry fee? No.

There will be 850 sp as a prize!

Tutorials are allowed

Include your username when you post your entry but dont include it in the actual art.

there is no specific render so you can use any image you want - however, it must be done in the FF style.

I will commence voting when I have 8 entries. (so be quick)

Here is what I am looking for:

However, you must replace the text with:

SB A-dam (sb standing 4 sigbar)

Please try to make it as similar to the final fantasy logos as you can.

I am looking for something like this:

Here is a link to final fantasy style text:

Also, if I am extremely pleased with the results I wil donate 1200 sb points.

Thanks and Good Luck :)

EDIT* I made this literally in the last 5 minutes, just as an example of what you should be doing:

However my one is pathetic and ridiculously bad. Other entries should hopfully be more intricate and detailed.

[Cloud]

Wait, do you want one of them images as the avatar? or do you want us to pick our own one?

[Cloud]

I get what you mean, I've nearly finished mine, but what color do you want the text?

[A-dam]

Text muxt be black. The avatar has to look as much like the final fantasy ones as possible.

[Cloud]

Because of how I've done the avatar, the text can't be seen when it's black. It could be white if that's alright.

[A-dam]

The backgroung shod be white and the text should be black please.

[Cloud]

Ah, well I didn't make a white background, so I'm going to start again, sorry.

[A-dam]

its okay, you can enter with what you have :). As long as it is recognisable as a final fantasy logo.

[Cloud]

OK, well I've made 2, so you can have both if you want. The text is the Final Fantasy style text if you're wondering, sorry if it's not what you wanted.

[A-dam]

Cloud I made an edit to the original post. Your entry should look almost exactly like that one (except the text should say SB A-dam and the image behind the text should be your own work.)

[Cloud]

That's a bit hard, I may have a go later.

[A-dam]

K good luck :)

[Cloud]

OK is this the type of avatar you were looking for? I made the background, so don't worry about that. If you wanted a whiter background, then you're fussy. :D

[A-dam]

No its not cloud but ill allow you to enter it. However, if you really do want to enter it then you can,( but I will only award you 50% of the prize if you win). The background should be white. white - full stop. I wasnt really looking for someone to cut and paste a part of one of the official logos. I am not going to award 850 sb points for doing that. I am really looking for creativity with things such as the pen tool.

For anyone else, please let me know if my specifacation is unclear in any way...

[Cloud]

Well then I'll enter it, because I'm no good with the pentool. You are quite fussy aren't you? you never mentioned pentools or creativity in your original post.

[firechameleon]

i'll give it a go tomorrow..........

[firechameleon]

the text from dafont is corrupted........... :(

[A-dam]

All art requires creativity.

[Cloud]

the text from dafont is corrupted........... :(

What do you mean? has it got a virus on it?

[maddog]

no i have the same problem basically we can't use the text you gave us it isn't working.

[A-dam]

the text from dafont is corrupted........... :(

It cant be FC, I downloaded and used it earlier today. Also, I saw that Cloud used it. You have to go to the zip file and extract all. The click on the folder made>then right click on the font and click install. It should work.

[Cloud]

Yeah that's how I did it, had to extract it because it was a zipped file.

[lokifeyson]

go here for the font and see if that works for ya, it works for me :)
