Show us your SF4 stick's custom art!

[Chunstoppable]

Since there's a lot of people that want to change the art on their TE and Standard SF4 sticks, we can use this thread to show off what we're planning to use.

This is NOT a request thread.

Here's mine:


Chun themed stick ftw.

[Guled]

here are some I threw together

[Chaghatai]

Here's my first attempt



Accel Core - Very nice stick art! Can you point me in the right direction to learn how to do that "starburst" effect seen in the background?

[Chunstoppable]

Chaghatai, thanks! :D

The "starburst effect" as you call it is really easy to create by doing the following...

a.) Make a new layer and fill it with clouds (Filter -> Render -> Clouds).
b.) On the same layer, add a lens flare (Filter -> Render -> Lens Flare). Use a 105mm flare and adjust the brightness to your liking.
c.) Finally, add a radial blur (Filter -> Blur -> Radial Blur). Set it to 'Zoom' and 'Best' and for the zoom amount, 60-75 should suffice.

Unlike you kings, I ordered an SE stick. Also, I'm a man of simple tastes, thus my simple design. The buttons, ball top, and shaft cover are all gonna be black and I'm thinking of painting the outside white border black also to finish that monochromatic feel. Anyway, here it is, love it or hate it.

...seriously.

That Honda one is great Chaghatai.

Thank you for the help - after messing around with it for a little, I think I can start working with it.

Thank you very much - I really appreciate the positive feedback!

Guys, is there a simple way to take an image, and put it on the TE Stick .psd template? Ive JUST got Photoshop, and I have never used it before - completely baffled!

If anyone has a link to a step-by-step guide to do this, Id be most chuffed. Have loads of images that I would like to have a play around with :)


Excellent work so far - the Vewlix one is brilliant :)

You can use layers - open up a new layer, put it over the template's layer(s, if there's more than one layer putit above all of them), and it will be over the template. If you want to see the template, set the layer to around 75% opacity (just remember to set it back when you're done, otherwise when you print it'll look a bit clear, and the template layer will show through)

This way, you can see where the art meets the buttons, etc.

Ooh I really dig that inky one!

Couple more:







...seriously.

[Valaris]

If I had one I'd use that Dan art. The rainbow in the back makes it too good.

1st one I've seen! Looks legit. Thanks! I might have to use this one once my stick finally arrives.

...and that Astro City template is a must-have IMO. I'd definitely like to have one of those if possible but would have to get green buttons for it. Nice work.


Repetitive Questions (that could probably be posted elsewhere):

1. What's the proccess to using these on your TE sticks?!

2. What kind of paper should it be printed on?

3. Anything else I should know before using custom artwork?

[Strata]

That Astro artwork is awesome @_@

Here's the mock up template I made. If you have any questions on how to use it just let me know.

Indeed!

How do you get these designs on to the actual TE plate?

[kurdt_the_goat]

Thanks for the compliments guys :)

Here's another, it's a bit off topic though!
The full version is a lot crisper than this preview.

Can you post the PSD's for these?

[kurdt_the_goat]

Just updated my post above with a PSD of the SF4 Vewlix panel, with only 7 ink splotches beneath the buttons for all you purists.

[Omega Viscant]

you make the dan background yourself?

Nope.


Here's one using the ink template uploaded by kurdt_the_goat (hope you don't mind me using it. I figured you uploaded it for a reason!)






...seriously.

hey did you figure out a way to get the art of the metal plate for the FS standard? As of now it looks like I'm stuck with the stock art.

You can use layers - open up a new layer, put it over the template's layer(s, if there's more than one layer putit above all of them), and it will be over the template.

Excellent :) Thanks for that
