I am making a space invaders themed 'credits' banknote, mainly because I've never done anything spaceinvaders-related, and I'd like to :D

it's about participating, not winning. good work should inspire you, not dissuade you from entering. |

| Although it usually doesn't inspire, at least not for me. |

WIP: I'm calling this: 50 Alobesia Suns  I shouldn't even be doing this as I have too much going on this week, such a cool challenge though. ------------- |

Thanks jal. I'm still trying to get the shape right on the 50's. the shapes pretty good. Just needs a few small tweaks, but mainly some AA to smooth it out. I can post an edit I did of the 50 if you want, but I figure you can figure out how to smooth it out on your own. |

@dpixel: the problem with the 50s is banding- use the second lightest grey to AA. something from a couple of years ago \o/  |

I see possible braille, but am having no luck figuring it out. The lower two could be an "I", or the lower three an "O", but that lave the upper untranslated/able. If you rotate 180 it says "is" though. -shrug- Probably looking to much into it. |

Here's my entry: The currency is facial hair and the denomination is Whitebeard, despite the fact that the pictured man does not technically have a beard xD |

Here's a more refined WIP. If someone were to help me with the horrendous circle in the middle, which is probably afflicted by all kinds of banding, jagged lines and other errors, I would be most appreciative. EDIT: Never mind. Just read the thread rules about only posting finished WIPs. It is now in the submission queue. |

My entry "The man who doesnt need money"(work in progress)
I used hindi script for numbers. Planning to change the main font as well. Any other suggestions welcomed. |

Update
I might call it done. |

I changed the character of the note, now the character is a comic artist in Brazil, his name is Mauricio de Souza.

| This is Great work. I have slight difficulty in reading the font beloew so maybe you can try changing that(the maroon colour of font). Rest seems great. Im betting you to be in top 3 :D |

Thank you very much. <3
Do you mean the ones that say CLEF or Sol Zagato? I suppose they're both in maroon... Any idea which color you think would look better?
I'm starting work on the back side of the banknote right now; I think I'll go ahead and make more CLAMP money even after the challenge is over.

it's supposed to be fictional currency. This is a slight variant of an actual currency |

I have to agree that Geoglatico is not quite following the spirit of the challenge. It is a pixelling improvement for him...that's good. ----- An update with hologram colors unresolved >:(  http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/64395.htm - Submitted (tweaked update to ^) to challenge so I can't back down at the last minute, as I always do. ------------- |
