Try adding meaning to your work, because right now it is always just a pointless obscure and complex background with random picture of a character. What I mean is that your work does not seem to convey anything at all ...

I know Kai-V. These two are sigs for two people and its currently 1:34 am here and from morning I have a busy schedule so I have to rush for it.

LUCARIO <3

IDK, it might be just me, but there seems to be 2 light sources, one on the top left(ish) and bottom underneath Lucario's leg.

And is that weird stuff flying off of him Aura? Looks like gunk more than Aura, Aura should be more wispy and ethereal.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

-Anton Ego/Peter O'Toole (1932-2013)

I wasn't sure where to post this, but here is OK, I suppose. I finally got around to making a post on deviantART about the design work I did for BEYBLADE CRUSADE this past May. Check it out: http://kei-x.deviantart.com/art/BEYBLADE...-273174264 !

Do you ? I think the first style is better .
Btw , why do you like the bottom style better ?

I think both have the same style where the picture does not blend with the background ...

I'm just not a fan of negative lol. Bottom one looks like it's got a lot of potential if he blended it in using more C4D's.

|BEYBRAD RULES|

Blue is my Favourite colour.What's your's?
I'm back In WBO!!! Well, I won't be active in tournaments though.

I wasn't sure where to post this, but here is OK, I suppose. I finally got around to making a post on deviantART about the design work I did for BEYBLADE CRUSADE this past May. Check it out: http://kei-x.deviantart.com/art/BEYBLADE...-273174264 !

gonna bump this post up because this really deserves it

Favorite things of mine that I'd like to point out include the text and the subdued Beyblade part in both of the poster's backgrounds.

The text is very clear and gets the point across (especially the time table). Spacing between each character is good as well; it's not ridiculously close together, while at the same time not being too spaced out. Some people would say something along the lines of "the kerning between each character isn't uniform throughout" but that's just because they're assholes.

Text for the phrase "CRUSADE" is cut-off especially at the S, D, and E characters, however this might just be the font.

What did you use for sparkle effects? I'm particularly interested in using a similar effect (because I really never have).

The very subtle "grunge"/static style is fantastic as well. Blending of different shades of reds really makes it peaceful.

While I have not been here for the past two years (ish) to see you progress, this is my favorite work from you.

Sorry for the wall of text, ha.

I didn't mention it in the description on dA, but I love what I did with the "IN [HERE]!" text on the first poster. I was worried some insecure person would tell me "But the "IN" is touching the "M", the bracket is touching the "N", and ... and, the "!" is being cut off! That's wrong!" ahaha.

The text is very clear and gets the point across (especially the time table). Spacing between each character is good as well; it's not ridiculously close together, while at the same time not being too spaced out. Some people would say something along the lines of "the kerning between each character isn't uniform throughout" but that's just because they're assholes.

It might not be completely uniform throughout, but I'm not a micro typography kind of guy. I'd prefer if my work wasn't "perfect" in that sense anyways, to be honest. Life isn't "perfect" in many ways, and the event itself wasn't exactly completely calm and orderly either! If someone wanted a justification for it, that's what I'd tell them. I'm more concerned with whether or not the overall feeling of the design is correct.

But thanks for the compliment regarding the timetable! It was easily understood by the tournament attendees, I think. I remember a Dad asking me about something regarding our schedule that day and after pointing him towards the giant poster posted up behind me, his question had been answered.

Text for the phrase "CRUSADE" is cut-off especially at the S, D, and E characters, however this might just be the font.

It was a stylistic choice. I wanted to use that typeface, but I felt that a) Simply typing the name wasn't good enough; it needed to have some sort of defining aesthetic to separate it from the default typeface which had been slightly overused in the design community at that time (I was obsessed with it at the time after having done an essay on the designer LOL) and b) I knew this event wasn't going to be a run of the mill WBO tournament; it was going to be extraordinary, and exciting, so I decided that modifying the type in the fashion that I did would imbue the feeling of some of those adjectives into the design/typography.

What did you use for sparkle effects? I'm particularly interested in using a similar effect (because I really never have).

You mean the stars in the background? They're actually from a Hubble Space Telescope stock photograph. There's a treasure trove of beautiful images on the NASA website available for download in super high resolution.

The very subtle "grunge"/static style is fantastic as well. Blending of different shades of reds really makes it peaceful.

It's interesting that you call the blending of the reds "peaceful". I saw it as more of a colour of action in this case. However, you could look at it the way that you did, especially when it is implied that the background is outer space; I think there's a certain feeling of calm longing attached to images of that nature given how little of outer space we have explored. I'm going to get incredibly abstract here, but it sort of parallels our lives in that sense. We might think we know something, but we always long for more, always long to push ourselves further. We might win one battle, but our appetite will never be satiated; we'll always seek out something new to move on towards. We might gain one new member, but we'll always wish we had more. That's the BEYBLADE CRUSADE. I think you understand what I'm getting at, haha.

While I have not been here for the past two years (ish) to see you progress, this is my favorite work from you.

Thank you! Like I said on dA, "I personally feel this is one of the best posters I've ever designed".

(20 x 30 inches!? this better have been printed and framed)

Both of them are sitting rolled up in the corner of my room lol. I probably should get them framed! Many people asked me at the tournament if they could have them after the tournament was over. It was so exciting printing them out for the first time; it felt so substantial in comparison to the 11 x 17 format I had been used to working in up to that point.

---

It might be my screen displaying slightly different shades of red, ha. Now knowing about the reasons behind the "cut-off" CRUSADE text, it makes much more sense now; before the explanation I found it mysteriously intriguing. Would print it out or something on my printer, but I have no colored ink.

i am so hyped to make a poster after reading your post/staring at that poster for the longest time, but i don't know what!

(WBO posters = WBO collectibles..? would be pretty cool to have a line of WBO posters arranged in chronological order showing how far WBO has gone!)
