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. |

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. Edited by r1k - 08 August 2011 at 8:31pm |

@dpixel: the problem with the 50s is banding- use the second lightest grey to AA.

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 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. Edited by CELS - 10 August 2011 at 6:04pm |

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 >:( ![]() Submitted (tweaked update to ^) to challenge so I can't back down at the last minute, as I always do. Edited by jalonso - 14 August 2011 at 8:30am |
