    Default Gears of War FanFic Story Logo (WP)

    I'm always looking to branch out my skills, and the Fan Fic Header Contest on the Epic Gears' form thread got me thinking about doing up some logos and other artwork bits.

    Anyhow, here is my first concept logo, overlaid on a faux leather background for contrast. The idea here was to create a flier's badge (wings), much like the ones you see on a military pilot's uniform today. The logo project file alone is 3000x3000 px, but I down scaled it to fit on this background. This example is high-res at 3000x2000 px and it is about 6MB, so please be patient if it is slow to load.

    EDIT:/ Download the wallpaper here: http://crotale.deviantart.com/art/Ge...m-WP-128690825

    Enjoy!

    Impressed... no.

    Completely and utterly awe-struck... yes.

    Yes, here is a Gears of War Zombie style wallpaper. I probably got the zombie "look" all wrong, but this is how I interpret it to be. I put in quite some time on this one. I used some photos of the Gears action figures to get a good lineart going, then I painted in the whole affair. The project is actually 3000x2250 px. Tools used were Painter, Photoshop, Lightroom and Wacom Tablet. 18 hours of work total.

    This wallpaper comes in various popular desktop resolutions.

    Enjoy!

    1920x1200
    1680x1050
    1600x1200
    1440x900
    1280x1024
    1280x800
    1024x768

    I don't know. Every time I start one I get discouraged. Honestly, I'd rather just make the artwork.
