Subject: My Halo Reach Wallpapers - Edited

I decided to take screenshots of everyday normal gameplay and download them for use in gimp. I combined a whole bunch of effects as well as in-game effects and special brushes to generate those nice techniques. So check em owt and tell me what you think whether they suck or that i need to tweak some a bit more. In any case your valued opinion will be taken into account.

First Attempt - Abstract
Second Attempt - Skull Flare
Third Attempt - The GHO5T
Fourth Attempt - Spec. Ops
Final Attempt - Assassin

Edit:
A new one i made today, tried to make it simple but clean, hope yall enjoy.
Spartan Team Alpha (primary colour)
Also the background on SPEC OPS appears blurry as i found it that its compressing it in some way when its being viewed at a lower res.

PS: All wallpapers are located on deviantart.com so that's where you'll be directed. Note that 'final' means the last one for today lol, being that i only just started using 'GIMP' today. =)

Cheers,
The Noble Truth, aka. Shadow Reign NZ

Well I love the way most of them looks especially the Ghost one, but I feel like there's to many things happening in every Wallpaper. Your last piece is a little unclear at some points, and the background on your Spec. Ops piece looks a little blurry.

Yea my first one was really busy as that was my first time using most of the brushes so it was an experiment. Although i did cut back as i got through more and more of em. The 'blurry' thing is either due to my repeated layers from part of the design to ensure it stood out or the fact that my brushes arent as high res as my screen and were too large for their native sizes. As for the last one, yea i know its too dark and unclear and i wanted to change that and i could have but that one was drawn in like an hour and my hand was hurting after doing 5 wallpapers in a row lol.

A MAN WANDERING THE WORLD WITH A PURPOSE, HAS NO REASON TO BE WANDERING AT ALL.

EXCELLENT! Very nice work.. Just remember the comment made about how busy most of them are.. But besides that minor detail.. GREAT Work!

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Awesome. I loved the Spec Ops one the best.
