Albert Posted November 24, 2001 Author Share Posted November 24, 2001 I just posted the first batch of Gunfight Label Submissions, so go have a look now! The quality of these labels is great, I wasn't expecting such a large response! Manuel's going to have a hard time choosing a winner. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted November 25, 2001 Share Posted November 25, 2001 Adding the label in the Atari cases makes them look a lot more authentic. I think this whole Contest is neat/cool. Can't think of any other words that convey the overall experince. Just seeing my images in "Atari Cases" here on AtariAge is quite a honor. Good Luck to all the other label Artists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted November 26, 2001 Author Share Posted November 26, 2001 And here's yet another Gunfight Label Submission, this time from Christian Bogey: - Christian Bogey's Gunfight Label Truly I must say I had no idea we'd get so many excellent submissions for this contest! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted November 26, 2001 Author Share Posted November 26, 2001 And had I waited a little longer, I could have also listed Michael Matei's entry as well. That brings the total number of labels to 20! Wow! Manuel Polik has discovered an excellent method to come up with great label designs, one I may have to take advantage of if I ever create my own 2600 game. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 Wow, some good stuff here, hmmm...I'm off tomorrow - I might do another Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicJoke Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 Yes, he seems to have sparked quite a bit of creativity here. This seems to be a great way to obtain a cool label for your hombrew game and involve the community that will buy it All these labels are very good!

Elvis8Atari Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 I just put my Gunfight submission on Atariage. It would be great for my portfolio if I designed the cover to a game before I got out of college. What a neat idea. Having fans do the labels. Atari rules. >Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moycon Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 They are all awesome. My favorites so far are: A. Hershey Uwe Heinrich - #1 Matthew B. Vigor Can we get a poll going where Atari Age members can vote??? That would be sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Atari Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 Well, I'm out. They were coming along okay, but I just won't be able to finish them. If the deadline was longer, I might have had a shot. Anyways, good luck to everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack-Ass Tramiel Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 Matthew B. Vigor's is the one I think should be selected, in my humble opinion. No insult to the other entries (which are all good and retro in their own ways), but Matthew's is the slickest looking one of all. It conveys a simple and powerful impression of the game, helping to sell it as well. http://www.atariage.com/features/Gunfight/...thewBVigor.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 Not to turn this thread into a critque, but I think you have to consider what will look good in a 2.75 X 3.5 size. Just because a label looks cool on a 19 inch monitor doesn't mean it will when shrunken down. Too much detail can be bad when working small. For that reason, I cast my vote for Dave G. and Jay Prince I think both labels have very crisp images & design that stand out from the pack. I wish I had half the talent all these artists that submitted labels do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffooze Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 as long as we're stating our favorites, i'd like to say my favorite is Matthew B. Vigor's. and, just so you know, i'm about to send in another one. i tried to make it an almost copy of metroid's label, but i made it in about half an hour and in ms paint...

Lemmi Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 Artwork. In the words of Manuel Polik, "I want to have something more dark & sinister on the cover. Clint Eastwood instead of John Wayne." Hehe ya cant get much darker and sinister then Wil Lutons label http://www.atariage.com/features/Gunfight/..._WillLuton.html All the Labels are great and i wouldnt want to be Manuel Polik right now, having to pick a label out of all the enteries Good Job Everyone CHEERS CHEERS CHEERS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
