Really nice.

What program are you using, I would like to contribute something.

haha, youre not gonna believe this, but i used flash....

Then, er, surely you have photoshop too, seeing as they come bundled together?

nope, i just got flash by itself. cs3 to be precise.


i cant wait to see it on the wall texture...

Here we go: (I must remind you that it's not up to me whether graffitis get used or not)

I've spruced them both up a little bit. Fluffy mcduff, i've changed the colour scheme of yours a bit, I think it's better to have a bit more variation in our graffiti colours, and we have a lot of red/green already.

awesome! thanks! you may want to make mine bigger. its kinda hard to read.








(i cant believe by graphic art will be on mofo! sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet !!)

If it's hard to read, then they'll spend more time to read it, and get shot.

Would my signature picture work? I could try modifying the icons (and maybe get a better font) to make it look more graffiti-able. I did try to overlay it onto the bricks myself with GIMP but it didn't work.

Either that or I was gonna draw stick men on tanks. Let me know what you think.

Bazooka Buster, your forum sig seems to lack imagination. All those images are already available to us if we wanted them on the map. But your name is ripe for imagery of high caliber. I suggest you crank up your imagination and give us something worthy.

meh, i hadnt thought of that. [/barelymuffledlaughter]

Well I tried a few different things, but I'm still no good at drawing stick men (yet) on the computer. So I made a road sign. I still have the original layered image so feel free to suggest a few changes. I do have one more idea through, so I'll get to making that as well.

The image is too wide so click here to see it.

EDIT: If you like it try using up space on the fences instead, it looks more like a sign than graffiti. I might be able to make a few mock newspapers to put on the ground, A broken window or two to make the corners look like buildings, a tank chasing a rabbit to hint at the upcoming rabbit hunt...

all good good ideas, especially the newspaper one. maybe have that funny tie fighter that flies around be carrying a banner behind it advertising various things (rabbit hunt, goforumyourself, events, anything.)

any idea when the most recent artwork will be up?

I tried to get a few of these running this morning, but it turns out there is a small bug in the bottomgraf material names. bottomgraf3 is specified in more places than it should be, so the tank crossing grafiti is in too many places now. We'll see how long it takes to fix....

Er... sorry, my bad.

Here are my pics. One with alpha one with bricks. Any questions of why I used a steamroller the answer is It Looks Awesome!

sorry if about putting my call sign on there (I couldn't resist)

i just got another idea. something like a sign that says "There is a cloaked tank between you and this sign." not sure how good it will look like, but i'd try to make such a sign in few days.

Edit: it don't look as good as i expected, so here is a different idea

I can't overlay *sigh*

Also you can remove the profanity.
