Achivement discussion

by **Indigo Dragon** » 05 Oct 2016, 14:42

Hello! The http://downloads.cardforge.link/images/achievements/ hasn't been updated since 17-May-2015, especially not with all the new 'walkers and achievements, so I thought, I've got paint.net, why don't I give a go?
So scrapping from the Fan Kits (very useful), overlaying over a basic template, using an upper layer of a cropped 'walker and a bottom layer of a full art Planeswalker we have...

: Saheeli's Creativity; Saheeli Rai.png (38.67 KiB) Viewed 37098 times

They aren't the prettiest, they aren't flawless, but at 135x185, they get the job done.
I was hoping to do the rest (Shadows over Innistrad, Commander 2014, Dragons of Tarkir), but these took waaay longer than I thought they would have, so, probably soon^tm.
Thanks!

EDIT: Kiora, Master of the Depths replaced, see new below.

I'd love to see anything else you may do!!

Hoping to get ORI and DTK done soon!

Okay, so looking through my resources available at the moment (Fan Kits), it seems that ORI and C14 will be a bit trickier than first thought

.
But hey, DTK!

Keep it up, they look awesome!

Sooo...
Not having a pre-cut picture means I have to cut these myself...
And I'm not an artist.
And this is hard work.
But...
ORI 3/5 (Damn Chandra's Flames and Liliana's Zombies)

Kaya's Ultimate doesn't seem to work, but her picture does!

by **Agetian** » 08 Oct 2016, 07:03

I patched up Kaya a bit so the Ultimate should now trigger the achievement.

Hmmm... I should finish ORI off...

Nice job on all the new achievement pictures!

Thanks!
By the way, would you like to try making a good one for Ugin, the Spirit Dragon? We're kinda missing a good achievement picture for him (I cut out a very rough one back in the day...)

While I appreciate your efforts, one thing that I think you should improve is to be more subtle about spilling out of the frame, especially at the bottom border. Be more aware that parts spilling out of the frame need to read as being forward and in front of the cropped pieces. Use cropping to enhance the effect. Don't just spill out all the character features.
