Could someone draw/image/edit up a thing for me?
« on: May 04, 2016, 05:05:24 am »


Res: 1536 x 864


Ideas: I want a StuG with a camouflage net behind a bush facing off against a Tiger I. In the background could I get a T-35 firing at a Japanese light tank.


Surrounding the title text could I get the German Balkenkreuz, the Soviet Hammer & Sickle, a white 5-pointed star, the red Japanese circle and the Union Jack, as well as an appropriate French, Czechoslovakian and Polish symbols that they used in WW2. Also any countries I've forgotten which made tanks in WW2


The StuG and T-35 would both be on the left, looking right while the Tiger would be on the right, looking left. Three Japanese tanks should be driving towards the StuG and the T-35.


A few of the tanks should be firing.

MOOD/COLOR SCHEME: Dark. Not greyscale. I want it to be very, very gritty. The symbols surrounding the title should look tattered.


What would I use it for?: I am currently writing a story called Underdogs, which is about Schools having a Tankery elective, which pits one school against another in yearly tournaments. I would use this wallpaper as a poster to advertise my story and also to have something cool to look at on my desktop. Yes, it is inspired by Girls und Panzer, although in my story both male and female students do it. Also, people do end up dying in this.

This request has been turned down no less than seven times on the Wattpad forums dedicated to making covers/ads/wallpapers for various reasons. I couldn't be assed to be turned down again so I put it up here.

Here's my own crappy 3-hour attempt I did when I should have been doing homework.

I probably could, but I suspect I know why it's been turned down quite a bit: It's pretty specific, it's pretty complex, and it's not necessarily immediately appealing.

I may tackle this later this afternoon, perhaps on the weekend.

E: so I've made a start, which I'm kind of maybe okayish with. This is a lot more complex than it sounds at first glance.

Before I dump more time into it, what's this look like to you?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Bearing in mind that I know bupkis about tanks.

The camo netting is pretty shoddy, to be honest.

This, uh, approximates the request in terms of the raw image. Title and emblems pending. Do you have an opinion on the style I've done the emblems in?
