Super Smash Bros Splash Cards + Tutorial!

[LiamMail]

Here's my rendition of PAC-MAN.

I used the official CSS color of PAC-MAN. Instead of the blue from the announcement. @ LiamMail Do you plan on making 1920x1080 versions? It seems there was some quality loss on the Greninja render you have.

No, I do not plan on making 1920 x 1080
Also, The sumi strokes should reach the edge of the splash card

 

[Sages]

Ah, it feels good to have some time to make these again. I see a lot of you guys already make great Splash Cards! Keep it up! Anyway, @ Sages , Here is the FX to my custom made style for the text to download. You can download it & Install it in Photoshop and it should pop-up in your styles menu. Also, here is a newer version of the Sumi Stroke Brushes including 2500px brushes.

That download link does not contain the 2500px Sumi Strokes, it only contains the 625 ones. The link provided in the zip to download the 2500px versions links to http://www.photoshoptutorials.ws/downloads/photoshop-brushes/sumi-strokes-photoshop-brushes/ where it asks you to join their website prior to download their brushes for $79.00 /yr.

You could just upload your brushes as a zip. But limited options in 625/1250 are leaving my splash screens with fewer options that require more distortion.

 

[LiamMail]

any of u figured out how to do the smash 4 logo?

 

[NoteBlock]

This is a really cool tutorial! I'll have to try this!

 

[All_Insanity]

If you're still doing requests can you do Freddy Fazbear? The text under his name should be "marches in".

Once you install the font, look for these fonts in your font drop down lists:

• DFGGothic-SU
• DFGothic-SU
• DFPGothic-SU

The underlined one seems the match the best.

So I try that, but it just takes me to the homepage for filedropper and asks me to upload something? O_o

[Aegis.]

Well, it's been a long, long time since I last replied to this topic. My bad, I was so busy with other things that I totally forgot this even existed! Anyway, the Charles one is hilarious @ _Vicious_ and sure @ Rie Sonomura ! I'm planning on releasing a new tutorial + Graphic Pack (which includes everything you need to make these) in the near future.

How's my Violet request going? I requested a Violet Smash intro like 5 months ago (I understood you had classes at the time), was wondering if you're still doing it or not.

I'll be focussing on the updated video + assets first, that way it'll be much easier for everyone to make their Smash Splash Screens.

 

[Rouge5]

[POKEMANSPIKA]

If you can, can you make a splash card for Star Man from Pro Wrestling on the NES.

 

[Desert Croc]

I'm back!
Well, I decided to make one of these for each character I make a moveset of from now on.
Here is my first one. Still not perfect though.

EDIT: Holy heck I can't believe I made this!

@ Aegis. can I start my own gallery on here? Because I want to create a few of these.

 

[Aegis.]

@ Desert Croc Yeah sure, go ahead! I'd love to see what you will make!

 

[Desert Croc]

Well, I haven't done much, but I'll update it with some more later on:

[EBFandom]

Would anyone mind helping me out? I own an Acer Chromebook, and I don't have Photoshop, so does anybody know a good photo editing software I can use so I can make these Splash Cards? (Also, somebody make a Splash Card for Ness. "Ness Brings the Power!"

Try Gimp. It's what I use.

[EBFandom]

Can somebody do a tutorial on how to do it in GIMP?

 

[MrThatkidalex24]

I know chrom has already been done on here, but I need some feedback on mine:

 

[EBFandom]

My first attempt at a Splash Screen. What do you think?

 

[EBFandom]

A Splash Card I made for Ness:

 

[Desert Croc]

@ EBFandom They are actually pretty decent for a first try. Just some feedback:
- The character and the sumi strokes behind the text need to have a drop shadow. In Gimp, you can find by going to Filters>Lighting Effects>Drop Shadow.
-The sumi strokes look a bit grainy. It's as if the resolution for them are distorted a little. If you could just tell me how you made them and I can help improve their appearance for you.

@ MrThatkidalex24 The text is spot on but the image for the character could be better quality.
Just remember, the character has to be as big or bigger than the size of the card in order for the quality to be at its best. If it is slightly smaller, that's OK, the character just won't be HQ. If the character's image is too small however, resizing it won't work as it will mess up the resolution and look terrible.

The video won't exactly play for me. I still think I might know how to increase the quality of the strokes.
