full-view for texture detail
Make a [strike]political[/strike] anime statement on your desktop! This is stoner done in the style of the famous Che Guevara posters/t-shirts you see on college campuses everywhere.
I have made a blue and green version as well, available for download as widescreen/4:3 at deviant art.
The original vector is here, i modified it by adding some more shadows so it looks more like the iconic image as well as simplifying it so it's a black/white obviously.
I then added a few paper textures and distressed the text/image with some brushes from DA and added a top-lighted effect for more drama.
Thanks to Spirit and everyone else in SZ for your feedback, it helped quite a bit and after a few revisions I think this one is quite nice.

Great take on the Che potrait Nice simple and effective wall

this is a great idea and a great wall, one thing that is keaping it from going into my favorites is that the face is not of the commander guy (forgot his name) and it could use a tiny bit more detail. ANyways, great job! and maybe you could do another version with the commander of gekko? 0_o

"All Hail Gekko State!" *Raises right hand toward sky* AIY! AIY ! AIY! Geesh, this wall looks like it could be behind hitler in one of his speeches hehe. I like the theme its cool, I really like the detail/texture that you added to it really effective. The Gekko State logo looks awesome! But the face vector could be a bit better, I duno what bothers me about it hehe. GJ!

I said it once and I´ll say it twice: You have some awesome ideas bubbling in you head. Just don´t understand why it get only to D+, seems like people can´t appreciate good, simple work today. Nevertheless great job, colors, idea and extra plus for creativity. Ah and you´re welcome =)

First, I was wondering why Che Guevara could end up at Eureka 7 wallie!? Second, it is a great simple wallie I like how the red becomes darker from the center but you should fill something more on the side. Third, other than that it is a great WP, but you should be more relevant.

haha. who knew that stoner would make for a good t-shirt idea? =P this paper really looks good. if someone came along and saw this on someone's desktop, they'd probably wonder if gekkostate was a company or (on this red background) if stoner was some kind of hitler.
but honestly, it's really well done, this really could be on a shirt. i liked this one over the other two versions. is there a white one? or brushed steel? i don't know if those would look as good though.

Pretty nice Che style and I think its "Viva" or maybe I'm wrong

Brilliant! The idea of matching Che to Stoner is genius. The lighting is used to great effect. A well-executed and funny wall, me like:D
4 years, 11 months ago
Heh, I knew it ! Stoner is Che Guavara in disguise ^^ Overall, it's very good wall, though is kinda too empty for my taste... Keep up the good work ^^

This isn't bad, but I think you're trying to do too much to it. I know that sounds odd as it's a fairly simple wall. But I think you're caught in a grey area. I'd say get rid of the lighting, make it a simple graphic. Let the letters be crisp. I think that would actually work quite well given the character type as well. Also there are a few pixelating issues, but, that's a matter of practicing saving different types of files.

Perfect! I always thought of him that way. ^_^ Also, I really like th shading of the red, it looks much better than if you were to have just a flat color. Great job!

LMAO! I always thought Stoner looked like Che Guevara. I was going to do this! But you did it much nicer than I could've done it.
