[QUOTE="Pariah Stark]Oh, so Athena requested a banner for the RP. I decided to oblige:
That's the original Soul Eater logo, and a matching font in both English and Japanese (which translates to Perfect Order), and a bunch of familiar faces. Toyed around with fitting more on there that were smaller, ended up being overcrowded. So I ultimately picked the ones that overlapped in neat ways, for example the gun and sword. I also favored red and pink to keep the theme. For anyone curious as to how I chose who went on, it was pretty simple: I started from the older characters, chose active ones on the roster and 100% favored full-body pictures. The rest of that is lighting, tweaking curves and color, not really any of the new techniques I learned aside from some light brush strokes. >.< It's basically the old logo made bigger, brighter, higher contrast and refitted for The Perfect Order.

Omg why you so badass Senpai.

Jessyka was one of my favorite to incorporate due to her gun. I spent a lot of time making sure it really popped. Her face blended perfectly with the lighting effect I used. I honestly cut the picture below her in half so that it wouldn't cover up the face, but would the hand, but it actually has this really cool optical illusion when the hand is in front, so I left it the way it was. When I was first putting the collage together, Jessyka was actually dead center, but it took focus away from the gun, which is what I wanted to focus on.
