Title: requested VersuS marquee done! Opinions?
Post by: darkmavis on January 05, 2005, 12:52:42 pm

m3tallhead requested someone to do  a  marquee for him, im on graveyard shift at work at the mo so im up for something to keep me awake,  this is a first for me, i think it looks pretty good, what do you guys think? any tips? ideas?  i used the planets (one blue one red) to enforce the versus theme.  it looks awesome when you zoom in %100 (some of the details are lost in the shrinkage like the softness of the lighning, ect.) thanks in advance for commenting guys!

JMHO, but I think the letters are too skinny. They look kind of wimpy to me.

Thats already been addressed. He's going to try and work on a few changes I PMed him. For a first view though, Its pretty damn good. Very much what I had in mind.

This is very well done. I couldnt have asked for a better job. The text is almost exactly like I imagined it, but actually turned out better than what I already had in mind.

I'll PM you with more ideas about CPO and side art ideas.....
