These would be run on subsequent right-hand pages in a magazine. First right-hand page:

mik's is amazing. We might as well just end the Killzone ads here ;)

Can't wait to see what people come up with for Final Fantasy!

Okay, the title hasn't changed, but for the next week, as a bit of an experiment, the theme will be Final Fantasy. It can be any and all that you can think of. Dissidia, Crystal Chronicles, or just I through XII (or any other spinoff).

Well the plan was to do all 12 mainline games in a row and post them at once, but I had no idea what to do with I or II, and I'm even less sure what to do with III (since I've never played any one of them very long).

But here's I and II anyway.

Yeah. The "tagline" from the first ad came from the back of the box for FFX.
The only problem with the four heroes thing is that it forgets Joseph, Minwu, Leila, Ricard, and Gordon. Still, looks nice, and it's a good effort for not knowing much about the game.
 
I'm not sure what tool you used to get the glowy effect, but I don't think it worked out well. For instance, Refia looks more like she's in profile and someone just stuck a sword through her.

And Ingus' neck look so spindly that it'd break if he nodded too hard.

Edit: And for that matter, if this is clearly the DS version, why is the ad for the NES?

I'm retconning the entire series to have been released in the US.

Also, it's a gaussian blur on the characters.

Tried it again without the CG characters. These are more or less speed runs.

Here's something I thought I might use, but ended up scrapping for the two-page spread.

And as always, the original size here: [url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v475/Dark-Pen/Art/killzonead2copy.jpg[/url]

Ploid: here's a few wallpaper size variants, though I only made 720p and 1080p:

I mean, its sort of like Bruce's, but he has this whole flame thing going on D: Okay, its pretty much almost exactly like Bruce's, but I used a different picture D:[/QUOTE]

Oh snap, thanks. I like that it's cleaner without the text. Made for wallpaperin.

You need to check out mik's other stuff. Guy's fucking talented.

Yea I saw the last few themes. He rocked street fighter 4. I don't know what he does professionally but I have an hunch it's either behind the scenes of Mad Men (series) or some big ad agency. The dude got this stuff locked down.

Apparently, it's actually health care.
 
If i remember correctly mik is in advertising but it's insurance for Health Care which is why his game ads are so good, they inspire him to use his skills on something a little more fun :)

Yes, that's a Star Ocean 3 screen, but would you have noticed if I hadn't said anything?
