Looks like they didn't like my Miyazaki Tribute shield. Oh well... I blame it on my awful painting skills.

Re: Shield Design Contest
My entry for the European region. What do you guys think, could you see this in game?

First time I've created anything like this in a long time so, would appreciate some feedback.

Re: Shield Design Contest
Thanks. I drew directly onto the template in Photoshop using a tablet, then added some texture with stock images just to make it look a bit more flashy. The henna flower in the centre is actually a tattoo design I'd been working on for a while, thought it fit in somehow.
I was going to add some more evidence of wear and tear, maybe a few deep scratch marks but I actually think it looks quite nice as it is. Kinda like a once beautiful, ornate shield that's been left to rust under a pile of bones somewhere.
There are some really great designs so far though, gonna be tough to pick a winner but I hope I'm in with a shot to at least make the short list.

Re: Shield Design Contest
True. Didn't really think of that. I'll try it later on and see how it looks. Might end up looking too busy or cluttered though. I don't know.
@eminusx
Really like that Painted Shield. +1 vote from me.
Already given a vote for the ENB shield further up. Not something I'd necessarily use in-game, but I really like the design.
Really digging this design too.

I'm actually waiting until near the end of the voting so I can vote for the ones I consider best out of all of them.

You can vote for as many as you like. I can understand limiting your votes though

Re: Shield Design Contest
I wonder what will happen with all the people submitting the wrong shield shape for their region..?

Re: Shield Design Contest
its an effective way of narrowing down the selection process. . . mine included
yours is doing well V, well deserved too!
I think the really early guys had the advantage or it would be higher still. . .I hope they dont just judge off pure numbers. .

I would go ahead and make it more shaped like Greatshield of Artorias, if possible. I think the curve towards the bottom of the shield is what helps to really accentuate the motion of the sphere of light. And to reply to the question in your message, yes, I would be honored. (:

Re: Shield Design Contest
I'm not sure I can do much to make it look like the GSoA. I'll see if I can suggest it a little with the design and submit it tomorrow. And I'll roll with that name

Re: Shield Design Contest
Am i the only one who is going to be pissed if that Marcus tribute shield is picked? I don't think it looks good and people are only voting for it because its an ENB tribute. I've got nothing against ENB, in fact i like his videos, but i don't want that stupid looking shield in Dark Souls 2. Again, i've nothing against ENB but i think that shield looks far to stupid to tie into dark souls 2 well.

Re: Shield Design Contest
I'm actually glad it's not all on the Facebook votes. They do thirty of each type of shield based on votes then the developers select the winners. Just praying that there's not thirty popular bad designs. And I agree, I don't want that one in game.

Yeah, not too keen on the big pig head at all. Tally shield owns though!

Re: Shield Design Contest
I actually dont mind the pigs head design too much, but its kinda more 'Lord of the Flies' than Dark Souls, just wouldnt sit too well in the game.
I do agree with the ENB thing playing far too big a part in the voting too, ok I like his video's but c'mon its Dark Souls, nothing to do with ENB, fricken stalker fest!
Man alive its up to second now, I could pick 20 that are better and more relevant.
irked
If it beats the Tally shield i'll be slightly livid

Re: Shield Design Contest
I hate to say it but the pig design is way off base. Great design for something else but I wouldn't vote for it even though i like his commentary. If he really wanted to win it he should have gone for one of the main themes in DkS2... I'm holding back on submitting my designs till next week.

Re: Shield Design Contest
I know right? she had no idea what to do and then she did it last night in less than half an hour(at work lol). she said she did it because out little man loves bees so she did it for him lol, it came out really cool. we're gonna do two more, there's one that we're both working on together, I'm not as good as her when it comes to actually executing the design so she's the one that doing them and I have some ideas and pictures that I showed her, we should be done by sunday.
