Yes, Red is looking for a new sig! Help please!

Post by Redstreak »

I'm thinking of returning to my famous "You're on the list" sig, but I really wanna clean the image up and wipe out the bluriness, yet I don't know how. If I haven't changed it by the time this gets read, here is the pic:

I'd like to get some other ideas, too...Denyer, Warp, I know you guys are the sig masters, if you could help I'd appreciate it. I really wanna do something different...

If there's a larger version post it here too... that's going to be tricky, but a sharpen mask and re-lettering will help (small+italic does not mix). I'll take a stab tomorrow when I've slept.

As for different, there's always this with some different text... ;)

...if not, I'll work on that one sometime in the future myself...

Eh, it's two images cropped together so there's really not much to it. i have the full page it came from if ya want.

And hey yeah, I'd like to see what that twisted brain of yours can come up with...;)

As it stands, Skycat is the only one to be brave enough to do a conceptualization of Redstreak(albeit a recolor of a Bluestreak image), if ya wanna go that route. But I shall leave it up to you.

Yeah, if you have large pic, will definitely work better. Given that it's 5:30am now, I'm unlikely to get onto it until I get some stuff sorted and posted tomorrow, and get back from town.

Re-colours? Hmmm... I have a feeling it would come out as rather pink, although I'll shimmy around to Botch and so forth...

it's either not uploaded properly or my browser's a piece of cak.

send me the full panel in an e-mail - StoneColdSkywarp@tfarchive.com label it so I know it's from you, so many virus hits :mad:

Your browser's a piece of cak, then...:D

On its way...appropriate subject title as well.

Erm, yeah... if Sky wants to take this, as I've actually only just gotten back and that download doesn't work for me either... doesn't even display the first two panels before cutting out (suggests partial file)...

mhmm, that's what I thought myself.

A spot of nifty editor work with more than one sharpen tool, some cut & paste, and if I were you I'd re-letter in a non-italic font before shrinking down to a decent size...

I guess the thing's too big...I'll haveta poke around on it I guess...you want me to e-mail it to ya Denyer, or just have Sky do it and maybe you and I can figure out something for a second sig(options always are nice to have)?

cleaned it up a bit, replaced the text entirely, you can make out Spidey's response slightly better.

I've made it 275 pixels tall, so you can still add in a few lines of normal text ;) Enjoy!

You know, I've just realised that that Nightbeat pic is incorrectly coloured in the comic... one of the face-plates should be different, to balance things out...

edit: Fixed. Ah, much better.

Sweetness. Thanks a bunch, Warp!

Sometime here soon I'm gonna actually conceptualize a "Redstreak" sig of some kind, featuring the character itself. Denyer, if ya wanna give a shot of doing a red Bluestreak(which is essentially what he is) sometime, I'd like to see what ye might come up with. I gotta research his quote, I dun remember what it is offhand...but I think I have a battle scene kind of idea, esp. if the quote is forceful.

Anyway, cheers guys!

*facepalms self*

Oh man...Sky, I dun wanna sound picky, but there should be a comma in Doom's balloon: "You're on the list, arachnid!"

I inserted one myself but it's come out all squiggly-like...

Damn English degree forces me to notice these things...
