WIP Title Screen

[Davion]

Hey everyone

I remember stumbling across this website awhile back during Dominance War II but didn't bother joining up until today for whatever reason. Anyway, I'm here now so I guess we can get the party started. :)

Here's something I've been working on for the last day or two. Any comments and suggestions are welcome and appreciated:

wonderfull use of textures and color.

[Davion]

Thanks :) I'm trying to figure out what to put in the background at the moment. I think putting too much detail into it will take away from the menu area, but it's a bit too empty at the moment. Maybe some leaves and vines or something...

Any ideas?

I think I might be about wrapped up with this.

I think maybe knocking back some of the more high frequency detail would let the characters stand out more. as hey seem to be getting lost a bit in the middle there.

I really don't like the characters. Too cheap comparing to everything else. And they're solid colors. Why don't you render themselves out yourself. It'll be more consistent. On your name, maybe some yellow or something that'll make it stand out from it's back ground. Something not too far from subtle. Those are just my suggestions. I'm loving this render. Looks really cool.

I was finally able to get back into this...

I added a bit more subtle color variation in the title so it'd pop a bit more, reined in some of the detail around the menu area so the text doesn't blend in so much, and added a bit of texture and variation to the text itself so it isn't just a boring yellow font.

Dude that's awesome!
They color variation helped a lot to.
No real crits though, what kinda project are you doing this for? Or is it just for kicks?

[Marcus Dublin]

Hey Davion is this for an actual game or just an exercise?

[Davion]

Just for kicks and practice.
