Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:13:00 - [1] I wanted to make a wallpaper with the concept art for the new Caldari tier 3 battleship, which I've decided is named the Roc (regardless of what CCP decides). I was going to think of something really fancy, and then I realized it would be very un-Caldari, so I went with something nice and simple. It's for widescreen (5:3) monitors...I have a widescreen, and the original image wouldn't fit normal 4:3 monitors very well, you'd have to crop it horizontally too much to make the vertical fit.

Erik Pathfinder	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:21:00 - [2] nice ---------------
Pwyle Kenobi	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:21:00 - [3] I'm a fan! I can see those 8 turret hard-points I'm wanting.
keepiru	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:22:00 - [4] Can you make a version for 16:10 people like me? im running 1680x1050, so im missing a little top & bottom border. ---------------- Official ISD cake & bree reserve thief. Barricades a speciality! Last stands on request.
Danton Marcellus	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:27:00 - [5] My Eagle is named Roc, you take that back usurper! Remind me about The Maze. I'm Danton Marcellus and I approve of this message.

Sure...I probably should have cropped it last, now I'm going to have to take a minute grafting the bottom and top back on...but yes, it shouldn't be difficult at all. Originally by: Danton Marcellus My Eagle is named Roc, you take that back usurper! Shouldn't have picked a name like that. My Eagle is G.S. Gilead Pistol, no chance in hell they're naming a ship class that. -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
Idara	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:38:00 - [7] That Caldari 'C' looks a little stretched to me. Otherwise it's cool.
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:43:00 - [8] 8:5 version posted, plus I put up the 5:3 version with the EVE logo. I think I might do an 8:5 with the EVE logo too... Originally by: Idara That Caldari 'C' looks a little stretched to me. Otherwise it's cool. It's taken straight from CCP's image with no stretching. I have no idea why it looks that way to you. -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
Idara	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:44:00 - [9] Dunno, it just looks pixelated around the edge... /shrugs
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:47:00 - [10] Originally by: Idara Dunno, it just looks pixelated around the edge... /shrugs I guess I wasn't careful enough when I made it a few months ago... Sorry. Maybe I'll make a new version of these if I ever do a cleaner version of the Caldari logo. -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
keepiru	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:48:00 - [11] Sweet! \o/ /me has a new wallpaper ---------------- Official ISD cake & bree reserve thief. Barricades a speciality! Last stands on request.
Malthros Zenobia	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:51:00 - [12] Originally by: Danton Marcellus My Eagle is named Roc, you take that back usurper! Usurperis an NPC! They have to name that ship the Roc, because it rocks. Nice look to it, I can totally imagine 8 425mm IIs lining that sucker. And using a name I liked since the day they were announced would be an added bonus. Originally by: Dark Shikari Istvaan Shogaatsu's ego, when combined with a veldspar asteroid, would create 500 titans. Too bad he's never mined. RAWR!11 Sig Hijack!11 - Imaran

Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:57:00 - [14] Originally by: keepiru Sweet! \o/ /me has a new wallpaper And you can choose with or without EVE logo now...I'm curious, which one do you guys all like better? -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
keepiru	Posted - 2006.04.28 04:59:00 - [15] Edited by: keepiru on 28/04/2006 05:01:31 Liiink broooken... Man, I cant wait to see that ship on the new DX9 engine with all the frills & bells... ive got more than enough horsepower... the newer models already look so damn nice game, im hoping this will be really detailed ---------------- Official ISD cake & bree reserve thief.

Vincent Gaines	Posted - 2006.04.28 05:09:00 - [16] links are broken :(
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 05:14:00 - [17] It was just the fourth link that wasn't working properly, the first three were working fine, and now the fourth one is also working. -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
keepiru	Posted - 2006.04.28 05:28:00 - [18] Im using the one without the logo because it looks too pixellated at my res. Ill try resisizing it in CS2 to see if that makes it better... ---------------- Official ISD cake & bree reserve thief. Barricades a speciality! Last stands on request.

Must have something to do with it being automatically stretched. -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 14:54:00 - [20] I added the 4:3...it doesn't look as good because of the required horizontal cropping, but I figured that some people with regular monitors might want it. -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
Acheron Cyc	Posted - 2006.04.28 16:09:00 - [21] Edited by: Acheron Cyc on 28/04/2006 16:10:34 Why don't you make a Soviet Iron Fist(:P) version like keepiru's(current wallpaper) but with a similar star to this one on flat front or at least a star like the one on russian fighters with the white edges. And the big CCCP titles, of course. It will rock! \0/ ------------------------------------------ "To do something right it must be done twice. The first time instructs the second." Simon Bolivar.
Professor McFly	Posted - 2006.04.28 16:15:00 - [22] Anti aliasing is your friend. __________________ Inappropriate link description. --Jorauk mods - pwning sigs since 1943
Vincent Gaines	Posted - 2006.04.28 16:19:00 - [23] a few suggestions: 1) anti-alias 2) use actual resolutions like 1024x768, 1280x1024, etc. most people won't use a widescreen monitor

Bottom line is that the concept art we were given looks like crap when it's cropped down enough to work as a 4:3 wallpaper. I suspect the artist has a widescreen too... -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.28 19:58:00 - [27] Edited by: Nikolai Nuvolari on 28/04/2006 19:58:25 I took some things I've been hearing about it, and made a new version...I think you'll like this, Keepiru! I'm still not entirely sure about the font I used at the bottom...I don't know, tell me if you guys like it, or I should change it (Suggestions for other fonts welcome). -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!
keepiru	Posted - 2006.04.28 20:09:00 - [28] If youre using Photoshop, check the anti-aliasing tickbox in the text tool... and for the CCCP on the ship, turn the text into a vector shape and then use skew & perspective distortion in the free transform mode. I wish i was any good at illustrator, id make a vector version fo the star with the hammer & sickle =/ ---------------- Official ISD cake & bree reserve thief. Barricades a speciality!

Viktor Fyretracker	Posted - 2006.04.28 20:22:00 - [30] the CCCP logo reminds me of those armored ICBM trains from the cold war
