Here is my old and updated game cover/poster:
I added a new 3D text to make the letter stand out. I think in a final design I would remove this though because after a while it began to bug me. I put in a background of Rolan walking through the desert to give the player an accurate depiction of what he is about. A contrast to the Gunslinger focal point of the cover. I also blurred the background to give it the effect that he is standing in front of fire, perfect symbolism for what the player will be doing.
The second poster I did was not in my original design. It was just a minimalistic idea I had that I wanted to come to life:
This actually may end up being what I go with, as much as I like my original idea I'm a BIG fan of simplicity.
Now this one needs work as well but I wanted my poster to be as simple as this so I will be screwing around to see what works.
Here is another new version of a previous picture:
A third one:
All of these I changed up the colors and made them more appropriate to what the game was about. The second picture I put in a better background and changed the color designs of the guns. I added colors and turned the greens into blacks and silvers.
I also took the crows and moved them from the foreground to the background. I felt they were too distracting.
The third poster I took the old purple palette and almost completely removed it in favor of a more black and white look. I brightened the moon and made it look less like an alien planet and more like a desert.






some really great looking stuff. youre starting to get a powerful handle on the image editing tools of photoshop. if you want to learn new techniques or stuck you can come to lab or email me and i can cover it in class. i like that you went back to your concept art and upgraded it along with new images. i like both versions of your poster and you can use them both in different occasions. really great job on understanding your colors and upgrading your art based on it.
