Oblivion Wallpaper

Post » Sun Jan 24, 2010 5:13 pm

I just made this oblivion wallpaper using Paint.Net. It took me 1-2 hours to complete (i wasn't recording myself). What do you guys think about about it, Constructive Criticism is encouraged.

Given what you worked with, I'd say it's pretty good. I always thought that the guy on the right looked like Buzz Lightyear though...

Very well done. I really enjoyed the dark vs light aspect of it, both in the daedra vs imperial and the dark red and black color of the daedric armor versus the gold color of the imperial armor.

As a wallpaper, I don't necessarily like it. One it's just too much on the screen; I like more cleanliness for my desktop, but that's more just a personal preference. Two, I dislike the logos on either bottom corner. Other than that, it seems quite good.

Other. I'm not really voting about your wallpaper skillz, but just that it highlights how crappy TESIV's dremora armor textures were. Blech.

But, um... well, very nicely composed, I guess? Seems like everything is too big.

And personally, I'm throwing a tiny fit about good vs. evil cliches.

I made one for Morrowind, but photobucket wouldn't let me upload the large version... so it's pretty much useless unless you have a baby monitor.

This one is pretty good, but not perfect. Well done though.

It hurts my eyes. Why make it blurry?

You could always use http://imageshack.us/, I believe it allows you to upload full sized images.

OT: I like it, but I don't LOVE it. I'd say 8/10 for me.

Great Wallpaper :) Might use it for my laptop, but I simply can't change my current wallpaper, I've got it for like a year now and can't get away from it XD

From an artists perspective I must say:
The eyes get no rest when looking at that picture. My eyes were constantly jumping between the Dremora and the human (not to mention the Oblivion symbol) as if I was watching a game of ping pong. What the Oblivion symbol did do though, was creating a centre of interest in the middle seeing as it was in a lot brighter colors than the rest of the picture, which kind of countered the "ping-pong-effect".
But those logos somewhat annoy me.

From a more personal perspective though:
I love the Good vs Evil theme, clich? as it may seem. I've always had a fascination for that eternal struggle, especially between angels and demons.
And there's no denying it was well done, since it was made with such a crappy program.

But would I use it as a wallpaper? No. As Septiego said, I too want cleanliness on my desktop, and there's simply too much... "going on" (as my old art teacher would say) in that picture.

8/10 for the picture itself though.

I couldn't find a Morrowind logo that was very good quality or a decent size lol. I made it blury so it wouldn't look so stretched out I guess.
