[NC2012] - Banner pack - Released !

Users who are viewing this thread

Sorry to point this out but I've noticed some abuse of the function outline/stroke and drop shadow in this banners.
While in some cases might look good, in others doesn't because the logos you are putting seem to hover above the banner instead of being blended with it.
Check this example

You should try to fix this, the results will be even better from what you have now.

Best Regards

 
Must say I tend to prefer the more realistic look that Maynd is talking about. I mean... I don't think you'd paint drop shadows on a shield.

To be honest, I think Kittenhuffer did an awesome job with the banners last year: http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,159432.0.html

He tweaked things around, saturating all the colours and adjusting the levels to bring out the highs and lows of the fabric texture (might have even given it a perlin noise overlay). Either way, they look awesome. Maybe it's worth putting your banners in the same slots as last year's, so that way people can choose the pack they prefer.

I must have your opinion on something. I have tried something new with the first banners, shadows. And I want to know if you prefer with or without?

For example:

Yes, We can do that. I respect Kitten's work and you know i'm not a perfect banner maker. I done new banners because Alex told me that it is better with new banners. :smile:
