[biothlebop]

The topic is:Ã,  A campsite / improvised shelter.

The campsite/shelter may be depicted before, during or after it was used.
An improvised shelter could be something Robinson Crusoe-like (when people do not have access to tents etc. and have to use their surrounding enviroment).

Max resolution: 640 x 480
Colour depth: unlimited

The voting will begin on the 16th and end on the 17th. Voting categories:

* Best Idea - The underlying idea to the background. Doesn't neccesserily have to coincide perfectly with the theme of the week, just strike you as interesting/amusing/inspiring; a place you'd really enjoy visiting within a game.

* Best Design - The style of the picture, architectural, landscape design, best mood, most evocative etc.

* Best Functionality - How well it would work when adding sprites, including appropriate walking distances, good angle for character sprites, clever walkway solutions, easily understood exits etc.

* Best Technique - How well the ideas are executed in form of rendering.

heres my entry



also remember:
i only have MS paint (not everyone can afford Paintshop).

[R4L]

That looks like a filter to me.

[timlump]

i actually drew it in mspaint and  used windows movie maker to do a smudge effect thats the best i can do to mimic the real pros among us. (I'm so ashamed)


What do you think of it anyway.
I think it gives a nice relaxed mood.

**this background was made a while ago for my game, as it corresponds with this weeks background theme i entered competition, but i don't know if this by the rules, so Biothlebop can dissqualify me if he wants,  i won't be angry

A room in a run-down building taken over by squatters. Or it could be a crackhouse . YAY! Anyways, it's a shelter of some sort.



This is my very first entry into a BG Blitz. After so many unfinished blitz bgs, I finally got something done. Just goes to show low-res is quicker than high-res, at least for me (This is my first low-res attempt for zi blitz).

EDIT: Oh, sorry Bunny, I forgot. Yesterday, I was helping BunnyMilk with some perspective issues and I coerced him to start drawing a bg and then we'd go through it step by step. Anyways, this bg spawned from that. So I gotta give credit to Bunny for the foundations of the bg.

Hmm..ildu that looks...oddly familiar :/

[Haddas]

You should buy any software you need.

[Cluey]

My submission.  Like a desolate tent in the middle of a ruined civilisation.

A small campsite, just a lean-to and a fire pit.

[yarooze]

His "camp" is usually under the bridge. But the water is to high today and the weather is good.


s'il vous plaît. J'habite sous le Pont, rive droite, sous l'arche, au milieu, là  où j'ai mis une bouée.
