CPO Artwork - needs more? Or Less?
« on: December 22, 2006, 10:14:57 pm »
Below is my first attempt at a CPO. Its done on both illustrator and photoshop. All Images were vectorized and then placed onto a full size 42x16 photoshop document. As I have never done anything on illustrator before this is somewhat of a learning curve.

I think it needs more but am running out of ideas and images.




Any help/suggestions or pics to add would be appreciated

The background logo could be vectorized and extruded in illustrator in order to have full quality.

The rest is just fine, keep it that way, it's cool! :)

IMO i like the 1st sketch a bit more. Try to keep it simple!

Simplicity is a virtude! :)

1st one is better, but the Metal Slug logo does need to be cleaned up. It's a little jaggy.

Also, are you using colored buttons? If so you may want to plug those colors in to see how they will look against all that other color.

I think it would make an awesome marquee.

1st one then. The LOGO has been cleaned up after I posted this thread.



It prolly would make a better marquee than CPO. Hmmmm
