For the community!
This wallpapers are for all who love DoW series - all in 1280x960 (but some of them are avaiable in 1600x1200 too ).

So enjoy. I hope you will be satisfied. Crush the weak and grab some on your HDD asap .

All effects / fixes / filters were made by using CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 (not in Photoshop).

I decided to follow by Buggo's suggestion and bring all removed wallpapers back + put special statement at bottom of this post (with copyrights).

Following by Hive Node's suggestions all wallpapers, sigs and avatars are now avaiable as spoilers to decrease load time.

.. and finally after receiving e-mail from Games Workshop I have to remove all wallpapers because using images from GW is illegal .. even for hobbyst and artists.

Master222

EvilKillaruna you got some talent there man. Maybe try with the DoW screens. I asume you know havoc art website? If not http://artofwar.6te.net/ if you would made some wallpapers from the screens try to e-mail them to havoc, or to me (I'm the admin of the HTML version)

Fire and Steel

Spectacular wallpapers. I'm a Space Marine man myself, but I couldnt resist the glowy eyes Necron.

EvilKillaruna

@Master222: mhmmmm... yes, I know havoc's website and have some art-aiming wallpapers based on screens from WA / DC (WA: Eldar mainly). But I don't know mine are good enough to publish together with yours. I can post few examples here, if you want of course .

Two already posted on first page in "Additional Tau wallpapers" section. They are modified two from official DC screens.

iGrooCk

Evil could do one with the greyknight but take away the name greyknight? but leave the rest the same with thos blue flames?

Hiroshi_Tea

very sweet wallpapers
i seem to prefer the necron ones
but they are all very well done

how'd you do these?
(fliters and stuffs)

EvilKillaruna

Done.

______________


Thnx.

The greatest problem is to find drawing good enought to put into wallpaper.

Then you have to resize it and eliminate all damages, low res signs (due to resize), tune contrast and sharpen, maybe smart blur if needed. Then you have to play a looooong game with background to create it. Cloud effects are very difficult - as same as flashes. And in BW graphics you have to imagine all possible colors in grayscale. Whole grayscale and all effects are made by using custom art brushes - similar to dry paint brush. This is a patient work. With some experience you should do it fast in ~40min, maybe 1h. :thumb:

Experience with many various analog art tools can be very helpful here (ie. to set proper pressure in brush settings)

I'm not an expert and this description is a only a general view. In reality you have to use much more effects, geometric objects, transparency, corrections... all depends on used pic and your personall vision. Lot of work and those wallpapers still can be clasified as 'simple'.

I don't know how about Photoshop...

Sword_Monkey

Contest? what contest where? I was mislead?


A quick edit of a wallpaper i practised my colouring ona while ago. Pic is from GW Uk online.

EvilKillaruna

You mean in title of thread? Uhmm... at the beginning there were only 2 first wallpapers and Hammer. Rest of them was made today and added one by one.

Master222

I think it should be "content" istead of "contest" it's confusing everyone. Now for the edited screens I would suggest, you don't use the grain so much it's a little anoying, also using colors is good, but black&white pics are also cool. Anyway if you find some time please send me more of your pics to tomek_fantasy@op.pl

Now to go back on topic let me express my emotions Sword_Monkey - Damn it's good! Monolith obsession?

EvilKillaruna

Sure. But first I have to find them .



argh...

:devil: Sorry.. my English isn't perfect. Fixed.

Shuma

This Thread Died? such a shame, the Wallpaper were awesome, just to keep you busy, you need a marine one, with flashy eyes .

Adonis

Oh, c'mon. It's only been two days! Now if it was two weeks, then you can say it died.

Shuma

In this forum having a thread with no posts over 2 days means is dead .

stipliani

these a really nice, think i might change my bg now

Carl

Any chance of these in 1600x1200 resolution?

Sword_Monkey

Oh oh, I only just noticed, must be a repressed love for unstoppable dark pyramids of unholy destruction.

Also there exists a proper coloured version of my monolith attempt, as the b/w version was turned into a wallpaper on the GW site. And the original colouring is great, although way too green for my liking.

Shinova

Time flows differently in the warp...err, the Relicnews forums than in realspace.

SchizoBadger

But Adonis is a Lord of the Relicnews maelstrom, he knows things you could not even imagine. One of which is time in this realm. :nod:

Unfortunately. Samples used for this wallpapers was very (even idioticly) small (GW fault). So higher res means only worse quality here.

Even if this thread will be locked somewhen, I can make another with new content at any time.

And you can be sure than you'll see more wallpapers soon .
