Great Murals

[K]

Ok, we all like doing murals, and the ones we've done have been popular. So I thought I'd find some great murals for inspiration.

Notice how instead of just blending two graphics together, the graphics pull elements accross from each other.

In our Music one, this effect is best seen between D and E.

I love photoshop.

Awesome. All of them.

I don't quite get what you mean by the pulling elements across bit, but the examples are all excellent.

ahh yess Senders and Boozer are great artists been a while since I've talked to them. you picked some of the best examples of murals.

Found the following at GF might be of some use for the people new to murals

murals

there still seem to be questions about murals, how to go about it.

well here is an introduction to the wonderfull world of murals.

players

- it doesnt really matter how much but it has got to be atleast 2

rules/size

- once again this doesnt really matter, you can make up theme's, rules for the next player, whatever. same with the size of the images. and how many times each player goes.

- 1 thing that is standard is the overlapping part, if the rules say 100 pixels overlap everybody has to use 100 pixels.

this size however can change of every mural, depend on how big you want it.

like so

ips to get the overlap right

now what i do is open (in photoshop) the last round of the mural, then make a new document with the size of the overlap, lets say 100px overlap the image size should be 100px wide and the same height as of the mural. or the other way around ofcourse.

then select the new image, drag the selection in the last round image and then you have the size you need.

now make a new image, and just drag the selection in the new image, and the overlap cant go wrong.

direction

- up to you! murals can go from left to right, right to left, top to bottom, bottom to top.

there are even mural that go from left to right, 1 down, the from right to left.

Gchaaah.....am I the only one psyched up for another EWB mural now?

[Gene Kiniski]

I'm into one now as well. I'd love to participate in one, but I feel like I'd get shit on by everyone else.

[Flowzen King]

I don't want to be harsh or something, but make a rookie mural, where beginners like you 2 can have their fun, or make a best of seven series between you 2. Read tutorials, practise and you won't get shit on by everyone else TC. Moreover people don't shit on you, the just rate your work and by that they help you out, by poniting out your mistakes and so you can try to change the graphic and make it look better.

Murals are awesome when they're done well.

That's crazy.
