What guidelines are you looking for?

What guidelines are you looking for?
I work a little better if I'm given a general idea of what to draw. I see the guidelines in the OP and the templates, but I would like to know if there is anything specific that would appeal to you the best. Not as a way of getting ahead but to get the best possible and most wanted product. Such as clairvoyance, each achievement could have a general way of letting the player know what to do through illustration, without giving the goal away (as I assume it's ambiguous as achievements are right now.)

Or, if you'd like something other than clarivoyance and just something humorous or good looking, such as Jack of All Trades (which I'm assuming is being good at everything, osu, taiko, ctb) could have Pippi, one of the Elite Beat Agents and the Ouendan guy (damned if I remember their names) all playing cards at a table, and one of them has a Jack. Just as a pun on the achievement name. In general, if you're picky and looking for something specific for achievements, it would help to have guidelines and something in general to follow in order to get the best product.

Wizards of the Coast gives their illustrators a good description of what they would like while also being lenient. They describe a card illustration with specific details (such as placement, angle, color scheme etc.) while leaving room for things such as the design of the character's clothing, among other things. This gives them a general idea of what they want, thus the result is better and less vague. Whatever fits their vision best while letting the artist do his thing.

It'd still be a collaboration on the community's efforts to create achievements for osu, but you get to pick the best looking version of exactly what you want.

Welp I tried XD (But as I feared there really isnt enough pixel density)


P.S. the font size in that template is a pinch over the black border for the txt "quick draw" so 17pt seemed ok

He/she would probably win, From the looks its way different work than I do and I hardly illustrate as it is plus I dont need a title because it's not all I do "Im a master of none but a jack of all".

Speaking of, the template didn't give me anything, just Taiko Pippi and the font used. I just made the achievement rectangle myself. I still have the non-flattened .PSD, however.

Heres somewhat of a feature request but more of an idea to throw around. what about doubling the rez to 266x206 but keeping its physical size representation the same as it is now on the page and having the image scale to size on mouse hover?

Maybe have the fingers facing forward. This would also make it much more visible at the resolution it'd eventually be shrunk down to.

Yeah, I was considering doing that, either forward or backward. I haven't sized down the achievement to the smaller res, I should probably do that and give it a thicker outline as a result.

There are a lot of problems with it, mostly the lack of a definite light source (the shading just sort of comes from nowhere) which bugs the hell out of me, and the lack of details on Pippi's outfit (missing the black hair, the star on her chest, the gloves, etc.). I really like the idea though, but I would love it more if she improved on it a lot as it is right now.

That would be lovely, considering a lot of these achievements' art is killed at a lower res. If we did the image hover thing, it would actually be absolutely grand to just have it scale to a much bigger size than 266x206.

Anyway, here's the fixed version of my take at Obsessed.



And small:



I can't say I like it when it's small though, I think it lacks defined outlines. I'm not sure. I could never work at a res as small as the achievement graphics, so I just drew it at a size similar to Ballance's.

I know a few artists who love working at smaller res, one of them even working traditionally, creating comics on a very small scale. For me, I can never manage to get in enough details at a small res.

EDIT: Also, it looks better as a result of creating it at the correct res of course.

EDIT2: Okay, I defined the fuzzy outlines of the smaller version a lot more:

It's more like there's a lot of good art being contributed for one achievement, and it would be better to use all of the art for different achievements rather than just take one of them and skip the others.

I dont see a problem with skipping others for one that fits the best, hell I was about to do another dedication I can pop them out like a pez dispenser :P
If someone out do's my ideas I would like that persons work published instead of mine it wouldn't seem right for me to be chosen on the basis that I did it first let alone set an avoidance in place to deter a person from producing a work that may or may not be superior to mine.

Aslo all requests have been filled so I don't see a problem with dupes at this point since the demands has been satisfied.

Yeah. It's just that it can be tough to make a choice between two excellent entries, and it's easy enough to just use art from one achievement for another. Best of both worlds, you know?

Generalization.

Your work is well drawn and shows Obsession. Would I want that achievement? Maybe not.
It can be made cute and somewhat innocent, I think. Would someone want cute? Maybe not.

jamujamu wrote:

Sorry. I get frustrated with the osu! community quite a bit, and I've met a lot of people who just say something (sometimes my own, sometimes not) flat out sucks giving no reasons as to why, discouraging whoever made it and providing no points to help. I've seen a few users who really helped a beatmap outside modding, and modding is of course all constructive criticism.

And you raise a good point, I usually get by on the quote "different strokes for different folks", so others may want cute or innocent achievements, I personally believe the idea can be played with somewhat to achieve a far more interesting result than what the user expects. Something that is literally "obsessed" and takes it to a new level.

But I'm rambling. I hope the next batch of achievement names comes soon, I'd like to get some new ones.

There's no rules and guidelines on the frontpage that stated we have to draw our own artwork here. Only statement that says "how the achievement should look" It's about the whole design of the achievement, not it's artwork.

Accepting Doodley's "Obsessed"

Accepting RBRat3's "Nonstop" (the pippi one, although the other is very usable too. i mostly chose the pippi one due to the anti-aliasing artifacts on the hard diagonals of the panel on the arrow one, for what it's worth. i know this could easily be fixed.)

Thinking Ballance's "Obsessed" works better for "dedication" from a conceptual perspective, and would like to use it still. Does anyone disagree with this move?

Really like RBRat3's "jack of all trades" except the cards have no jack showing, which makes it a bit weird. Are there enough pixels to show a "J" + suit on the top-most card or something?

Thanks for the awesome submissions guys. You are making this hard (to judge :P).

Use what you like best, getting rid of the aliasing is no big deal before sending it off :)
