I have an art project that I cannot remember the name for that basically involves one shape turning into the other. What I need to do is take a recognizable shape and morph it to another recognizable shape using imaginary shapes and approximately five, maybe six panels. This involves paper on paper with hot X-ACTO knife action.
There were examples shown to us done by classes of previous semesters (the most popular layouts being white shapes on black paper): A snake turning into a Christmas wreath, a fire hydrant turning into a running dog and the Statue of Liberty being turning into a guillotine. These are the only ones I remember because I sit in the back of the class and I'm too near-sighted to see whatever else she was showing us.
I want everything I do in that class to be game-related when I have the choice. The idea I came up with I'm not too keen on but it's something I'm willing to do if I think of nothing else.
I've only recently received Red Dead Redemption and played through it, and the only idea I have come up with seems esoteric enough for a 2D Design class made of fashion designers and fungineers: Turning a horse into a burlap sack with the face of a snarling cougar on it. The experience that lead to this idea involved the mission-given Kentucky Saddler, the same horse I had all through New Austin and Mexico thinking I'd get the Spurred to Victory achievement, getting killed by my first-ever encountered mountain lion while I was dicking around Gaptooth Ridge for desert sage for
Thread name relevant.
The advice-seeking part of this-- and as I mentioned before, I'm not too keen on my idea and I want everything video game-related when I have the choice-- is me asking what the forum-goers of The Escapist have in mind. I think the problem I'm having is that I find my idea a little too esoteric and not iconic enough, but I don't want it to be far too, euh, obvious, such as the Master Sword to the Triforce or something.
The only guidelines I have is that the beginning shape needs to be clearly different and identifiable from the ending shape, so it can't be anything like one person to another or a pocket monster evolving; examples of doin it rite are above in the second paragraph. I don't believe the images need to be related, but it's just personal preference that they are.
I'm open to ideas from most any game since I feel that I've played far too few games that I cannot say I have an expansive taste. Posting the images of your suggestions will be very helpful in this because it saves me the trouble in not having to find the images myself in the high chance I don't know WTF I'm looking for.
Also, DISCLAIMER: This thread has nothing to do with the pet food industry. I'm also assuming that throwing ideas at me so I can steal integrate into my art project is giving permission.

a crazy man collecting flowers for a carcass you'd probably have to peel off the rocking chair.
