Post your own L4D Cover Art

[FRAGious]

Guys, I really like the official box art, yet I want to see what you can come up with. So go on and open that good ol' Adobe Photoshop which you bought and create some cool art! NEWB TIP: You can mix up something entirely new or edit the official one.

This is not a discussion whether the newly revealed cover art is good, bad or shite. If you don't like it, illustrate it through a better suggestion ;)

My thoughts exactly! Nice work, Bucky.

[Bucky]

I only worked on it for 10 mins lol. If i spent more time, it would looks a bit better

That's very good :D

That sadface indicates that it really happened.

[caboos]

im pretty good at photoshop, but that has me stumped. How did you do that, I saw you reversed the hand because there is a thumb and the pinky is gone.


EDIT:Wait you took a new picture of your hand right?

[Jesus123]

Yeah he mostly took a new picture of his handed and imported it, its not that hard when you think about it.

[Warheart]

I hope it's not pointed at me/my thread

Not at all, it`s a parody of the box nothig more. :)

Warheart, how long did that take you?

About 20 minutes, just a quick thing before I went to work.

Wait you took a new picture of your hand right?

Just googled "middlefinger"

That's Australian marketing for you, although I must add far better than 'Where the Bloody Hell Are You?&quot;

Well i just added a black layer and put it on Hue. Then i deleted the red parts from the black layer, so it would show the red. Then to wrap it up and i creted another layer on top of the black layer and put it on overlay. That layer is where i added red to the hand.

Though, you probably dont care about what I just said.

[Telyko]

no problem I'll do it

[armored cow]

No, that was a decent explanation.

The only thing I don't really like about the one I made is that you can't really see that the thumb has been ripped off.

I like armored cows better than the original. Send it to Mike Booth!

Agreed

[BenKenobi88]

I'm sorry, but a black box is just too boring. Nobody would see it on a shelf and I don't think it's very unique either.

The survivor silhouette picture is a cool picture, but I don't think it's cover art material.

[awdrgy123]

@dr dean: YES, YES, AND MORE YES!!
@steve cloud's box art: oh my god, that is what should go on the back of the box like where it gives a preview of the game :D

[Necrocide]

@valve: The original boxart looks diseased.
@bucky: Your darker box art looks murderous.
@armored cow: Your darkened+ boxart looks psychotic.

Just my #1 adjective choices for describing each.

[armored cow]

Actually if you click on mine, it' still green...just a very dark green, lol.
:D

[DeMoNsXWiThInnX]

Actually if you click on mine, it' still green...just a very dark green, lol.

I noticed that, i was wandering? Did you just darken the original boxart or did u change nething ?

[armored cow]

no I actually copied the original, and made it as a second layer, but then changed some of the colors on that and darkened it. But then I cut out some parts in the darker layer so that the original boxart would show through.

[DeMoNsXWiThInnX]

Ahh yes, I see. Clever indeed.

[Thor-axe]

I think the best one was whoever did the one that's just like the real copy, but is a left hand instead of a right. Just seems to look better. The others are too generic, or too much black. Black is nice, but is over-used.
