Is Rekt in the game yet? Your stickers are awesome man, thanks for contributing.

 

 

Yes, Rekt is now in the game via community capsule 1 - it was accepted as a post-release replacement for one of the stickers that infringed copyright (and by extension Valve's T&Cs). 

Thanks for the kind words!

 

edit: just saw your portfolio - impressive map collection! I loved Gwailior

I have a couple sticker ideas I've never bothered trying to create (photoshop skills are megarusty)

  • 'Face towards enemy' (like a landmine) with an arrow pointing towards the barrel
  • 'As seen on TV' like this
  • 'All the gear no idea' :)
  • 'I only flash teammates'

All high quality ideas- feel free to use  :lol:

I've actually had some ideas similar to the 2nd one as spectating e-sport tournaments is hugely popular - so an idea around that theme might be a good call - it's just a case of coming up with an idea that looks great and is also relevant to CSGO.

'As seen on streaming sites' doesn't have the same ring to it. I don't think 'as seen on twitch.tv' would be allowed :/

I've posted another sticker if anyone's interested:

PWN'D based on graffiti tagging. All feedback is welcome, good or bad.

This is a brilliant idea, I think you should tweak the readability of the text though, it's really hard to make out the phrase when you're looking at it. Simpler definition on the letters and better borders would probably solve the issue, I think you should keep working on it because it's a great concept

I seen that. congrats on getting some in!

 

What do you think about the below? (as a concept of course. My 2D design skills make me wince :)

trying to mimic this style of logo (it's creative commons, I've checked)

Thanks dude. 

As to the logo, I think if you are going for pastiche it has to look as authentic as possible - if it were me I'd fix the kerning, remove the hard drop shadow, and have a look at the type rasterisation - it's very pixellated, especially on the 'A'. Also give a little more space between the edge of the panel and the type - if you can line up the 'A' and the 'G', and the 'N' and the 'V' that will look more tidy as well. 

But overall worth a punt!

 

One other thing to bear in mind is you can't just submit a glossy or paper decal - you have to also supply a foil or hologram version as well - its caught a few people out when trying to upload with the item publisher.

Thanks for your feedback. Believe it or not this version is actually toned down a notch from my other sketches :D - I think graffiti is esoteric which helps separate the word from the form. But at the same time understand your point: you have to cater to a market, and it may turn a lot of users off if they can't understand what it says. I think part of me was hoping people would like it because it looked like a tag. I'll probably have a break for a while and come back to it in a couple of months - that's normally how I roll!

 

 

if people can read your grafitti text, your're a sellout :P

:lol:

Is seriously no one picking up reneGABES?! That's amazing!

 

Thanks; unfortunately (and surprisingly) the Renegabes stickers are the least rated items in my workshop. I would presume this is because they draw on retro pop culture that is outside of the scope of the core audiences' recollection, and so only a small number of users can relate to it. When putting them together I was constantly smiling - but they've become a joke no one else really gets! My initial plan was to make an entire collection of them -- but based on the lukewarm reaction I can't really warrant putting the time in, unless just to amuse myself!

AH! That's a shame, I would totally rock a load of renegabes across my loadout :(
