Title: Dracula Through The Ages Poster Spoof Contest
Post by: darkmanx_429 on October 25, 2013, 02:07:06 PM
A very cool contest for Lords of Shadow 2 that ends this weekend:

https://www.konami-castlevania.com/art-contest/ (https://www.konami-castlevania.com/art-contest/)

Unfortunately, for me the contest isn't open to people in the US. I did a poster today for fun anyways and posted on their Facebook page. The put me as the very top comment in the Dracula Through The Ages section!

 Well, I guess I got a little notoriety out of it!

We had a few of these posters pop up in the LoS2 discussion thread. It's a shame it's not open for the US, since that's where most of the poster inspirations came from in the first place.

Nice work; I'd guessed you were submitting your own poster after that "FONT NAME" thread.
Gabula's face blends well in the mist, and I like the castle idea -- the trees don't quite fit, though. And you'd expect the "Lords of Shadow 2" part to be fully worded out in a movie poster. But otherwise, it's irreproachable.

No doubt, I was bummed at that. I gotta look through the thread now for those other  posters! I thought about wording out LOS but then it really wouldn't fit in the fangs and that would of blew my idea for the Fright Night logo. Thanks!

Thanks X. I posted it on twitter to Dave Cox yesterday and he's been re-tweeting it to the dev team and some others! For once, I could have won a contest probably and I'm not even eligible! lol
