damonster Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 U got skills. JK. Plus the second one is hard to read
chaz4594 Posted April 7, 2011 Author Posted April 7, 2011 U got skills. JK. Plus the second one is hard to read If you look above the second poster you will see I have already pointed out it was hard to read. I done both in about 10-15 mins, was just seeing if anyone else had made any?
HansLanda11 Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 I did this one time when I was bored. Not that impressive but I tried. Edit: The real banner is much biiger than that.
LoNdOn Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 I did this one time when I was bored. Not that impressive but I tried. Edit: The real banner is much biiger than that. I have to say this really made me chuckle. The first thing that caught my eye in the pic was the Doritos logo and the way the logo was positioned made it look like they were fighting for the Dorito title or something.. Great stuff.

Yeah, i'm not that good at doing these which is why I stopped after doing this one. Here is the larger version of it. http://img203.imageshack.us/i/wfa20banner.png/
chaz4594 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Posted April 8, 2011 New Real Life poster I made: http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/2025/ufc129poster2.png Updated in OP
OctoberRaven Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 While it's very good (my computer graphics professor would be impressed by that for sure), I would try to avoid using mirrored images of people whenever possible. You can get away with it with that GSP picture, but Shields has tattoos and his gloves clearly have writing on them. Other than that one criticism it's well done. Less is definitely more with posters and this is a good example of it. EDIT- For the second one in the OP, I'd use a thicker font, and a border around the text (black I think would be better, but try white too).

Thanks very much for your feedback, I will look to improve on my next one
CoutureLegend Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 May i ask how you did that UFC 129 poster? Do you follow some sort of template/guide, or are you just skilled at using photoshop?
OctoberRaven Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Here's something I whipped up... haven't gotten additional fonts installed on this computer yet so the typeface isn't perfect... http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/614/sonnenbisping.jpg
damonster Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 http://i55.tinypic.com/35ktr9k.jpg Old one, but the only one i did. The cutting of the fighters arn't the best but w/e
chaz4594 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 Here's something I whipped up... haven't gotten additional fonts installed on this computer yet so the typeface isn't perfect... http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/614/sonnenbisping.jpg I really like that poster OctoberRaven. The layout is simple but effective which is what I like in a poster not all that daggers and lightning some people put in. Very Well Done May i ask how you did that UFC 129 poster? Do you follow some sort of template/guide, or are you just skilled at using photoshop? I just looked at some UFC posters and based it around that seen as it was my first attempt at it. I know my skills aren't that good yet but I'm gonna keep making them
kevbk6222 Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 http://s363.photobucket.com/albums/oo78/kevbk6222/?action=view¤t=poster.gif decided to do this while i was bored today. it is a poster for my bantamweight interim title in my women only mod. i feel pretty rusty with photoshop though.

CoutureLegend Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Alright so i decided to try this out for myself.. Not a fan of the font & there may be a little to much on there but oh well. http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/4410/silvaokami.png

CoutureLegend Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Really nicely done, not a fan of the font but you've already mentioned that. Yeah can't seem to find a good/clean font on photoshop. PS. What font are you using in the posters you have been doing for Damonster's dynasty?
chaz4594 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 Yeah can't seem to find a good/clean font on photoshop. PS. What font are you using in the posters you have been doing for Damonster's dynasty? I think you mean this one Sofachrome?
damonster Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 I think you mean this one Sofachrome? that's the one UFC uses, at least what i read online. I use it as well, couldn't use it until i unziped it. (I'm an idiot at times.)
OctoberRaven Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 I used Copperplate Gothic Bold for that last one. dafont.com is a good source for shareware fonts Here's a more... conceptual poster. Kind of wanted an 'epic showdown' feel. http://img864.imageshack.us/img864/908/ufc140.jpg

Scottie Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted about this a while back, but it's finally happening! http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af77/gammadiary/GAMMA50.jpg
FlameSnoopy Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted about this a while back, but it's finally happening! http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af77/gammadiary/GAMMA50.jpg Nice! Very clean, clear and simple, I like it. Perhaps the only complaint being that grey thing with red borders stops out of nowhere, when it could go to the top of the picture or be faded out.
Paatero Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted about this a while back, but it's finally happening! http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af77/gammadiary/GAMMA50.jpg Very nice, you'll need to post the recap for that epic event in the "My most recent event"-thread! I like how you noted the slight details, with Sharp being slightly larger than Foster .
