The Escapist Wallpaper Requests Thread - UPDATED 17/04/2013

[Trivun]

Hi all
I have a request but its a little off topic but I figure I can ask for your help. My gf has to do a blog as part of her course and she cannot find a good blog header and doesnt want to infringe copyright by copying anybody elses. Neither of us have the artistic skills required to make one so i thought I would ask here. The blog is to be a gaming blog called "game-centric" so if somebody could make an image about 700x250 pixels with the title and some popular gaming chars etc I would be most grateful.

Here you go, if you're unhappy with anything about it then let me know and I can make whatever changes are necessary

Spoiler: Game-Centric

Love it
Thank you so very much your a diamond

Brilliant, glad you like it

Who's Jenny, and why has she just signed in?

.

lol thats what i wanted to ask

did she sign in just as you took the screenshot in a perfect exsample of sods law or was it planned to make it look like you have friends =P lol i am only messing with you

Haha, it was Sod's Law... Actually, it was compounded by the fact that I changed my wallpaper shortly afterwards, then changed it back again, and accidentally ended up using the screenshot I'd taken as the background by mistake and didn't realise. I couldn't fathom why the sign-in window wasn't going away until a few weeks later, at which point I proceeded to kick myself thoroughly...

Your Attention, Please

Finished it. 1280x800 Derlan wallpaper. I've tested it out on my laptop, and it is in my opinion an excellent wallpaper--doesn't interfere with the legibility of the icons or anything.

Spoiler: Derlan

Fun Fact: I finished this and transferred the image to my USB drive about ten minutes before my laptop died on me (with any luck I'll have the materials needed to repair it on Monday). But I almost wasn't able to get this done at all.

I'll probably post this in the Artist in Thee thread as well, and I'm debating posting it in The Unknown, though I fear that might make everyone in the game send me a request for a wallpaper with their character.

Oh man it looks incredible! So awesome thanks very much!

You're the best! Best wallpaper ever!

Actually, if you don't mind, I'm going to be slightly cheeky here and ask if you could do me a wallpaper too. I just really like the style of the Derlan piece for Shapsters, and I reckon it fits the ideas I've had for my own created characters. The request is based on a series of short stories I've been writing that are in turn based on certain fairy tales, here's the spoilered character descriptions:

Spoiler: Spoiler snipped for length and tidiness

As some people know I'm currently working on writing a set of short stories that are all twisted versions of fairy tales and kid's stories. So what I'd like to request is basically my main characters in an ensemble with a dark backdrop to illustrate the dark setting for my work. Characters are as follows:

Spoiler: Character Descriptions

Spoiler: Red (aka Scarlett)

Female, long black hair, red hood, dresses like a goth, quite tall

Spoiler: Luna

Female, short blonde hair, wears a blue vintage dress, 70's style, also dresses in an indie kind of style

Spoiler: Gretel

Female, long red hair, tall, wears geek-reference t-shirt and jeans

Spoiler: Hansel

Male, short black hair, dresses in jeans and rock band t-shirts

Spoiler: Alice

Female, long brown hair, ripped dress, basically looks (and acts) insane

Spoiler: Mad

Mad Hatter, male, short brown hair, wears a trilby, ripped jeans and t-shirt, also looks and acts insane

All the characters are around 18-20 years old. Also, they interact in the stories so that might need to be put across in the actual wallpaper:

Spoiler: Character interactions

Red and Luna have a bit of a... thing going on, though Red hates Luna for murdering her grandmother but also happens to be in love with her. Red also happens to be close friends with Alice and Mad. Gretel and Red have a bitter rivalry regarding leadership of the group, and Gretel has a concealed incestuous lust for her brother Hansel. And Alice and Mad are also a couple.

Hopefully all that will help. If anyone can put together a wallpaper based on that I would be extremely grateful

Red/Scarlett is the character in my avatar, by the way...

If you don't want to do it, or don't have the time or anything, then don't worry about it, it's no problem. However, if you can then it would be much appreciated. Otherwise, I can just see if anyone else wants to do it. Even just individual characters would be fine, since I can always put them together in GIMP as a full wallpaper myself .

 

[SextusMaximus]

I'm afraid I'm only good with environment design like mountains and stuff (3d) would that help?

That's fine, it's exactly how I started out myself until I learned how to use GIMP. As long as you have any sort of artistic talent, in any way, we're glad to have you on board. Plus, anyone can request anything so you're welcome here anyway .

Sure, I'd be happy to draw something like that. A warning, though: it'll probably take a while. Partially because it just takes me a while to put together stuff like that, and partially because, as I mentioned, my laptop (also known as "my computer with Photoshop") died recently. I'm hoping to fix it tomorrow, but there's no assurance that it will work.

But if you're willing to wait, I'll draw it for you.

That's fine, I'm happy to wait, thanks . I have a pretty good Hellsing wallpaper I did myself that will do me for now, anyway...

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

I've got (hopefully) simple request...Can I get a wallpaper of the following:

Phoenix Wright, Miles Edgeworth, Franziska Von Karma, Godot, Mia Fey, and all the other Ace Attorney series lawyers all in a circle around the screen.

With a big

in the center.

Thanks for considering, even if you can't/won't do it.

Well, the projects I'm working on now are piling up, but I can give it a go . Hopefully the first thing I'm doing will be finished tonight, should probably take a couple of days to work on the second project I have to do, so expect this finished by the weekend. Unless someone else is willing to do this piece. Either way though, if no-one else will then I'll do something for you

Any word?

Well, no-one else has said anything, so I'll be happy to do it for you. Sadly, however, my own plans so far have been delayed thanks to coursework, so I'm still halfway through a Valve wallpaper for someone else plus my own work and whatnot. However, I will endeavour to get this project done for you posthaste

Well, it shouldn't be hard. A few Google image searches, a fitting background...and you should be cool.

OH! Could you make the background a courtroom?!

If I can find a decent courtroom picture to use, and I can make it fit and look decent, then sure thing .

Rock. My laptop is working now. I'll get started on your wallpaper.

Quick question: what's your desktop resolution?

Brilliant, thanks . My resolution is 1440 x 900. I have a pretty big screen on my laptop...

Another quick question: what does Luna do? I'm asking for purposes of posing the characters, as I've been trying to get away from my usual arms-by-the-sides thing, and at the moment Luna's the only character who is static (am I making sense?). I figure a little more information would solve this--even just a prop for her to hold.

Hmmm, I never really thought about that. In the overreaching arc of the stories I'm writing, Luna is pretty much a foil to Red, plus the relationship thing that they're trying to build. It gets revealed early on that she's a succubus (a type of seductive female demon), and her actions basically are designed to either cause complete chaos (she's pretty much Chaotic Neutral/Chaotic Good) as a demon, or lust because of the specific type she is. Her story is basically that she's on the run from a group of demons who are trying to kill her because she has information about their plans to lead a rebellion against the gods and she meets up with the rest of the group by coincidence.

Not sure what you can make of that, though, but hopefully it helps. As I say, Luna mainly interacts with Red (romantic relationship) and Gretel (rivalry/enemies), so maybe you could do something with her to show those relationships between the characters?

Updates?

Really sorry to keep you waiting so long, this past week has been anightmare with university and stuff. I'll have plenty of free time on the train tomorrow though so I'll definitely be able to make some progress then. Right now I've got the images that I'll be using, I'm sort of in the middle of planning out in rough exactly how it's all going to be laid out when I start it in GIMP tomorrow evening (getting the train home for the weekend, you see...).
