background blitz - feb 19th to march 3rd

plasticman · Thu 19/02/2004 19:33:26

hi folks, sorry for the delay. anyway...
i decided to stay in the spirit of the last blitz. the subject this time is : "a seedy hotel room"

whether it was in an 80's b-movie, a detective novel or during your summer vacation, you've most likely seen at least one of those before.
try to think of all the elements that could contribute to give an unpleasing atmosphere to your background : the decoration, furniture, lighting, etc etc...
the room should look uninviting above all, whatever style you go for.

the resolution must be either 320x200 or 320x240.
you can use as many colors as you need.
have fun :)

Cool custard, Puddingman . . It's 6 day assasin right - but from the snipers point of view? (i be smort).

just a 15 minute background for you to get the idea of what i'm thinking of

EDIT:
omg this looks more crappy than i thought it looked...

Someone should submit a background of Antonio Banderas' hotel room from Four Rooms.

"BEHAVE!"

ovc : It took me about two nights...Since I was aiming for a different style, and not being sure where it was leading to, I should be able to do a next background in the same style in one night...there was a lot of trial and error in this specific background...
No tablet btw just a mouse and PS...

Remixor, it'd be hard to draw... The fire, the needle, the dead hooker... It's be hilarious though.

heh eric, are you aware of teh fact that my co-workers were saying "The graphics in 6DA were CRAP!" ?

Scummbuddy · Thu 26/02/2004 07:28:49

Eric, its beautiful, but the right side of the far wall is popping out over the border.(top).. .and are the boards in the hole in the wall on the left in the right perspective? (just curious) I really like all the contributions to this blitz!

I think it appears to "pop out" at the top because the trim is missing (which would normally cover that.) Unless I'm wrong and he really did make a boo-boo.

kaaZ · Thu 26/02/2004 13:20:20

ooew...that's marvelous mrcolossal ! Did you do that from scratch or is it a paintover from the old background...Either way I dig this background....

MrColossal · Thu 26/02/2004 23:36:25

it's a paintover.

the slats on the left aren't in perspective cause I saw them as randomly nailed up slats.

yea and the trim is missing where the wallpaper is torn, it looks a little weird but ohvell!

kaaz, i like your background better, i saw yours and decided to enter and i think it's marvelous

Ok - I feel I'm not really standing a chance against all these great, great, kickass entries from y'all, but what the heck, here goes... It was fun to do, anyway...

plasticman · Sun 29/02/2004 02:00:33

damn... i really like the entries so far, won't be easy to pick a favorite.

mr c, did you realise your (lovely) paintover doesn't fit the required size ?

MrColossal · Sun 29/02/2004 05:13:39

woops forgot to resize it:

just as well though, i don't want to win and besides, Kazz's is awesome

and wanderlady, awesomely cool! i'm very much in love with the nontraditionality of it
