Alright, Before We Get Started I Would Like To Introduce you to a friend....

Meet Toni.

Oh boy, here we go...

Toni is sick and tired of being used in everybody elses blog, so i've mutated him into a gangster penguin.

"Thanks For The Nightmares Matt"


Now, Gangster Swiss Mutated Penguin Toni is jealous, because GG has a fancy Jag with ladies.

(Notice The Permanent Decal On The hood)

But Sadly, Gangster Swiss Mutated Penguin Toni doesnt have a nice shiny jag, with GG logo decals and ladies surrounding it. Nor do I.

So to make up for the jag, i've made posters!

So now. Me And Gangster Swiss Mutated Penguin Toni are happy!

I've had this idea for a while and i've wanted to get it off my chest really badly :D

Y'know, decent quality large print and I'd buy a couple of those, specially the landscaped one. Simple but effective.

Something to add to the merch store there, GG guys.

I printed off a TGEA poster a little while ago

But I think it was too geeky :p

Needs more lens flare.

Everything needs more lens flare.

Nice job!

As soon as GG makes a T3D splashscreen image (or an actual poster) I'll definitely get one up in my room.

Soon my room will be overrun by Torque branded stuff, at least until the cats get ahold of them ;)

@Matt:
I have a Photoshop trick for you to hide the little white jaggies on the edges of the Legion warrior.

On a new layer below, use the outline of the warrior to fill it white, then stroke the edge with an additional heavy white line, till the white shape is just a little larger than the warrior image.

Now use motion blur on the white shape, and adjust the amount.
When you are done it should give the warrior a gentle aurora.
The key thing is not to be too overly obvious about it.
Hope it helps.

I Think i'm going to revise the second one. It has a lot of white spots that need to be fixed on the logo, and im going to replace the leigions charcter with the original one deborah sent me.
