  2. wow..the thread got down..hope its okay i revive it Not only was a lot done layout and design wise, content was added a ton too but a new Fan Art project (the third one) is on the way too, since its Street Fighter`s 25th Anniversary i organized a fan art tribute project like no other before. Not less than 214 Artists will be invovled if everything works. 113 artists signed up already 90 Street Fighter Characters from SF I up to SFXT (Poison Kiss) will be drawn by 2 artists each. 8 SF Characters will be drawn with a gender redesign /change 8 SF characters will be drawn 10-20 years older 5 "epic" battles are displayed by 10 artists, battles like SF Alpha Ryu vs Ken, Adon vs Sagat, Karin vs Sakura etc I have around 20 entries already, the project starts officially on februar 12.2012 The first tribute i organized which was about Mortal kombat is nearly complete, 79 of 80 characters were drawn, the last one should arrive this week http://www.game-art-hq.com/the-mortal-kombat-immortal-fan-art-project/ The second project was about boss characters of fighting games, it was a great success, around 50 artists draw over 80 images. even katsuhiro Harada, the producer of Tekken saw and complimented it a while ago on twitter http://www.game-art-hq.com/a-tribute-to-the-boss-round-1-fighting-games/
  3. It is rare that i really care for critique, normally i go my own way, without caring for consequences Today i went trough the posts here again though and changed relative many things designwise on game art hq http://www.game-art-hq.com/ It is for sure not the final designchange
  4. Heya, criticism is something precious for me, and i guess everyone who wants to create something or wants to build something up there are a lot points made in the last posts here though and i am changing some things here and there already, and consider some more thing is that i care 100 times more about the content so far than about the site design and when i look at google analytics the growing number of visitors and pageviews per visitor is more than fine.. the site is 4 1/2 months old only and i have around 800+ unique visitors on a day already which watch around 3,5 pages per visitor And well, the problem is that i am absolutly no designer, i learned html..and..thats all I use wordpress and gain experience with every month, and i guess that ga-hq will see more than one big designchange For that i need to learn a bit css and more html though ^^ I use comic sans sometimes because i think it looks..unprofessional. Especially in the fanart sections it can be a bit unconventional i think The main font is never comic sans though and will never be 2. Guidelines for submissions good point, but the thing is that basically submissions can only be made in the forum, people cant just upload their stuff, instead they can show me examples and i decide to add their works or not. I am very active at deviantart since a while and know many artists from there, i ask them directly if they want to be featured on ga-hq or offer it to them. This might change a bit in the future though 3. Good points for the about page, i will work on that right today I am no artist..cant draw..cant remix. I had and have many ideas though ..build up more than a handful communities in the past, and have the talent to activate people for my ideas and to participate in contests and comunity driven projects like the MK one Next year the maybe biggest game related fan art project starts in februar on game art hq It is a street fighter tribute project and has the target that not less than 200 artists are participating to make it complete. 90 SF characters can be claimed by 2 artists there are 10 additional challenges, like drawing Ryu vs Sagat, the thing is that again 2 artists can claim the challenge, but those will actually battle against each other trough a poll whcihd etermines which image will be used for the project and which wont. It is about street fighter..so some sort of competition cant hurt Around 60 artists claimed characters and challenges already, 13 of the Street Fighter characters cant be claimed anymore, 2 challenges are given away as well Nude, very violent and original characters will never be a part of ga-hq, original creations can be showcased in the forum though 4. I have actually started working on both points last week already Organize the artworks by series/ game title. < done in a lot artists gallerys already, thing is i started organizing like that only a couple of weeks ago, organizing it for the artist galelries from before takes again much time, and the most visitors visit the game or character related fanarts, only like 10% visitors are visiting the galleries with all artworks by an artist 5. Installed a grammar checker. *cough* I work on the site every day, even my gf does since she believes in the project and loves art and (good) fanart as much as i do..it gets better and bigger with every week and month but its a damn slow process which is very annoying for me. I wish i had 24 hours for it every day Greets everyone, gbk ps: as mentioned, whenever someone here needs artists for a cover art etc, dont hesitate to ask me, i cant guarantee that 100 people will come, wanting to draw something, but it is likely someone will help if i introduce a interesting OCR project to him
  5. thanks for the feedback, i never learned webdesign, i have no profis to help me and just got used to wordpress which i used for the site, i remember OCR got trough various redesigns over the years and ga-hq will most likely see different designs as well i saw that you do a legend of many project via your sign, maybe i can help you a bit with some art from the game itself recently i played it and made a lot screenshots of legend of mana and especially of all the characters, artifacts, places and soon the around 200 enemies as well http://www.game-art-hq.com/legend-of-mana-in-game-character-art/ http://www.game-art-hq.com/legend-of-mana-in-game-artifacts-places-art/ http://www.game-art-hq.com/legend-of-mana-screenshots/ greets, gbk
  6. nah, i guess they read the forums as well and if they found GA-HQ http://www.game-art-hq.com/ interesting they might have contacted me already However, everyone here who is in need of artists for fan art like a cover or a logo for a OC Project or something similar is welcome to contact me, i will do what i can do support any promising OCR Projects greets and a cool week everyone, gbk
  7. Hi, yesterday night before reading your comment i actually thought about the same It could work like: Remix Album Project gets announced + seems likely that it will be done I can promote remix album projects via my DA Groups and Game Art HQ to get some artists interested and have good contacts to even some professional artists If i get artists to help ocr projects and in return the artists and ga-hq gets mentioned and linked here on ocr it would be great for my project to become more popular i guess. And i think many OCR remixers and musicfans here might like the "visual remixes" in the form of good fan art as well if the artist and the album art gets promoted via the album credits and what not so it could benefit everyone involved
  8. Hello, first of all i hope its okay to write about an own website here..i ve read the rules but didnt see a part about it http://www.game-art-hq.com About 4 Months ago i started the project "Game-Art-HQ.Com" It was and is my target to make a platform for chosen fan art related to video games of a certain quality, just like it happens here with the judged remixes. Its in a whole a different system there, i dont have something like a jury, i alone ask artists which made fan art if i can feature their works ..so for now it totaly depends on my own opinion if someones works appear on GA-HQ or not The next inspiration i had from OCR were the Projects I know ocr since now nearly ten years and visited the forum often to see the progresses of the remix project forums and loved the idea that many artists worked on a big thing. Thats something i tried with a fana rt tribute project now for the Mortal Kombat games, i made a list of 80 playable and unplayable characters from the MK game series, these could be claimed by artists..but only one character per artist..since 03.10 all 80 characters were claimed..over 50 entries are submitted to the project already The Project can be seen here http://www.game-art-hq.com/the-mortal-kombat-immortal-fan-art-project/ i am sure MK is not everyone`s thing and there is a second project for boss characters of fighting games already There is a lot more, like official released artworks from the game companys, screenshots, cosplay galleries.. a few interviews and reviews Every artist or cosplayer i feature on ga-hq was asked for the permission to do that and always gets a link to his prefered website..other website admins just copy and use what they see often, i instead try to work with the artists and make it a win/win/win situation in the form of visitors for both parties and fans which like to see good fan art Thanks a lot DJPretzel and everyone else who build up this awesome community
  9. Hi, i am ray from germany..know ocr since nearly 10 years now i think and finally decided to join this great community greets, gbk
