CrimsonKnight212

Hey guys!

So I've played around with graphic design for a number of years, and while I'm not the best, I'd like to get better! But I'm looking for inspiration!

So if you need a banner for your group, an icon or avatar, something for another site, or just want something made for your OTP, let me know!! I'd love all the requests I can get!

A sampling of my work (mostly made for HarryPotterFanFiction.com and sister websites):

Thanks! Do you have anything you'd like me to do? I need for material and practice!
Not really sorry <.<
I just really admire your work!
How long did they take?

The first two took a while ... I played around with the first one for the better part of five hours, but I ended up making a few different iterations of it, so. The last two were easy - I think the John Williams one took me like thirty minutes? But that was years and years ago.
Cool :D
I'm impressed and way to go Crimson :)
Oh man this is awesome :o

Could you do something with this image of the Engineer from tf2?

Can you make it a partly transparent .png with the top of Engie's head on the transparent part like how in this image the top of the character is on the black part.

I hope you know what I mean :p Thank you!

I do know what you mean! What are you looking for exactly though? Other images to include, mood off the graphic, size, etc.
The text from this at an angle behind Engie, maybe so that he covers it a little but it's still legible.
And in the background, just a bunch of random blueprints like what someone did here, maybe with a sort of papery texture.
And maybe a border like this, if it helps make him stand out.

As for size, the same length as this but twice as tall.
Sound good? :)

-OR-
if you're up for a challenge

could you make the background of the banner from these images below (cropped), in various sizes, arranged in a grid kind of like this but with slightly less space between the images?

And could you make the first image I posted earlier of the Engineer stand out more than the others, maybe by giving it a sort of border like this or by making the colour of the other images less saturated, but not completely black and white.

Oh wow haha!

So that's all very doable, but, I'm going to pass, because I don't want to infringe on any copyright and a lot of these images aren't licensed for personal use or modification. Sorry!
Oh! Ok.
