Yo Tqs here.

I create posters, I create them with spiral spy. I manipulate models, props and the environment in a way that resembles SFM (source film-maker) type posters. I have some free time now so expect more to come.

I have a ton of ideas and time, but not enough people to base it on. I want my work to be based on real players like you guys and make it as customisable, personal and unique as possible (while retaining my creative freedom).

Finally, I am creating these to promote the gorgeous art-style of which the SK game engine implements, and what better way to promote the game's art-style, than to use the game engine itself through Spiral Spy.

So with that in introduction out of the way, here's a showcase of what I can do with Spiral Spy

Showcase I
Finding 21 of them

Showcase II
Sworn Protector

Showcase III
Goodnight

Oh and did I mention that I have a tumblr blog for this?

How can I get a request?
It's pretty simple actually, just post an image (or images - the more the better) of your loadout that you want to get featured as below, and I'll figure something out.

Here's an example of what you might expect in a featured poster:
An Unexpected Snarby Hat

Exciting.

hmmm.

Honestly, the main problem I see is that the lightning from the models and the background dont add up.Is there some kind of way that you can simulate lightning effects in SpiralSpy?

If not ,you might as well find a way to port the SK models into SFM, because I cant see many scenarios for posters working without a sound lightning.

Also,I know nothing about SFM or Spiralspy, I'm just making an aesthetical critique.

On another topic....nah, I'll just see how the others will look like.

Good Luck.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

@Magmaul

Well, there's a little flaw in SpiralSpy, which causes the lighting effects of nearly all objects to be...doubled. So they all look really bright. To fix it, you have to set each one, going into a potentially huge dialog and finding the correct drop down. And then to each one, one at a time. It's a painstaking process which I don't have the patience to do. (Spoiler: I hate making SpiralSpy images because it's somewhat repetitive.)

Meaning it takes forever, but it's possible. Most of the time.

You know what.

That last snarby looked kind of solid, if only a bit bright.

uh....

-Gender of Knight :
Male, not that it matters

-Personal Colour:
Blue(the actual blue,not any cobalt)

-Name of helmet and armor:
Frosty Hood (Costume)
Frosty Flak Jacket (Also Costume)

-Any accessories attached:
Military Binoculars (not the visor)

-Weapons equipped :
Iron Slug

-Shield equipped :
None

-Fantasy scenario :
Ok, might be complicated to pull out:

-My knight and some other knight with a full Chaos set are back-to-back, fighting devilites in some arena, on a Devilish Drudgery.

More specificaly, I'm facing towards the screen(Left side), firing a shot at a devilite(he's getting hit by it).Think you can capture that moment of recoil from the Iron Slug's fire?

My teammate is firing a charge attack from a Savage tortofist at devilites on the far back(Right side).Some of the needles are allready in the ground, traping some of the devilites.

(Wanted to get a memento from that one and only March of the Tortodrones glyph hunt I had with a guildmate some time ago.Locking devilites in slug barrages and spike walls was kinda fun.)

-Now,if you feel you can't do that due to the complexity (I don't blame you),just put my knight on a ready room,doing a thing on the Mission console.

Facing the screen,preferably.

Uh, the Iron slug can be left hanging somewhere in a pile of gear (Blizzbrand, Striker blade, a Catalyzer, a cobalt shield, etc.), or on some corner, or maybe "holstered" on my knight's back.

Chinese New Year meant that nothing was done for a whole week XD

Yo! Sorry Magmaul-Ace, my bad. But now that the new year has ended, I should hopefully be done with your request within a few days to make up for lost time.

So while you wait (a bit more longer - sorry again), here's a WIP screenshot

On the flip side though, I'm rich now with red pocket moniez :D

That took way more effort than I expected

Give rep where deserved :D

Fiendish Showdown

Fun fact:
That scenario is comprised of 192 separate entities, of which 176 were used just to make the environment. LAWL all of them painstakingly hand placed

When I attempted to put your suggestion into a generic pvp environment posing in a generic pvp stance, I found it so creatively boring.

So I decided to give everything a creative makeover in alignment with the bright, cheerful mood of the Spiral Knights universe, while - hopefully - retaining the mood in which you requested.

I hope you will enjoy it, because it would certainly be something that you would of never expected.
