I particpated in one of the latest O3D competitions (http://www.oman3d.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1924), I did it for fun though. I tried to add the grungy effects to give "war-ish" expression or something similar. Perhaps it's not perfectly edited but I did this before one day of the submissions' deadline.

My entry was sadly not qualified to the final voting session (http://www.oman3d.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2099) (do you believe that?) so I thought to share this with you guys :)

Adobe PhotoShop and Illustrator CS2

Enjoy it!

It's a shame that it was not qualified..it's so much better than the first 4 designs they accepted. I like the whole chaotic feel of this and the typography as well as the brushes you used. the color seems to be suitable for the 'war' aspect of the desing..I guess you could focused more on displaying elements and colors that represents 'peace'. over all it's pretty good.

lovly.. really loved how everything matched... though it a lil messy i loved how messy it turned out to be .. well done man :)

pretty cool man, gr8 work... with a lil more work on it it can turn out 2 be amazing :)

Thank you all ^_^

Nabhan: yeah I think I didn't focus more on the 'peace' expression on this design but anyway I believe that it should have had been qualified, too~ ;)

It's great. It's messy, but in a nice attractive way. The words are perfectly chosen. I loved it, excellent work. :star:

Thank you Falling Star, I'm glad that you loved it ^_^ appreciatd :)
