Certainly a few people have heard of this new movie coming out called V For Vendetta. Well anyways, it was Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving (Mr. Smith from Matrix) and it looks really good.

I bought the novelization of the screenplay, am almost done reading it, but, it's well, as lame as this sound, it has inspired me.

..

To make wallpapers. rolleyes.gif Lame, yes. I'm trying to learn to make a more cluttered yet organized piece, and, well, it's harder than it looks. I'm too symmetrical and boring so, this was new and fresh.

I know they all, well, 3 of them, have the same style just with diff colors and patterns, but, I wanted to expirement more. Anyways, i'll shut up now.








Pshh this idea came to me at 5 in the morning. It turned out awful. -sigh-

Comments?

I've definitely heard of V. Great graphic stories. I'm hoping the film interpretation does it justice (as did Sin City).

Looks good Kristinaa. I'm liking the first one the best. Third one... did you intend to have all that empty space?

"I bought the novelization of the screenplay" ? Maybe I'm reading your sentence backwards, but the book came first - not the movie. Nice though.

The 3rd one I just finished, i'm thinking I need to extend the pattern more. Less space = better.

Thanks, though.

Mediocre- At first it was a graphic novelization, comic book if you will, and then this guy wrote a novel that was based upon the screenplay which was written by the guys who wrote The Matrix.


&&Fixed #3, sort of.

Its not a texture, I did it with a default brush in photoshop.

When it says you might wanna play around with the scattering, I did that at 100%

The second one is my absolute favorite. The blue is really pretty. The last one was a great idea. I like the splatter brushes! They're all awesome! You did a good job.

Those are all awesome!
Just one thing- don't use the same font on all of them
otherwise they look GREAT!

I like the last one because it's different then the others. They are really similar with just like pictures with the brushy background. I do really like them though! Maybe make some more with like more blends and such, if you want? Good job though!

huh.gif Why not? They are wallpapers, you aren't going to be using more than 1 at once? Who cares if it is the same font?


And, I love them all!! The pictures, brushes/textures, style, colours, everything WORKS!
