Design the face of.. - 40K Terra

Lord Commander Erus · 08-28-2007

Your local forums own online magazine! All future editions of the Inquisitor will, submissions permitting, be designed, voted on and chosen by you.... The 40k Terra Members.

How does this work?

Simple.. Design a cover! It can be as crude (looking, please DO keep subject matter not ***ually explicit!) as you wish. We only ask it be funny, or meaningful! Want to draw the elusive killer333 in his cage, or photshop stitch gnawing on some bones? How about a Space Marine doing laundry, or perhaps the shrine of Rogal Dorns fist, or the Eternity gate itself?

All of these and more are wanted, nay NEEDED. And, don't feel slighted or let down if your submissions are not picked. They stay in the circulation pool indefinitely, until used!

After you submit, the staff here at the 40k Terra Forums will pull together and select anywhere from 2 covers and up, and a thread will be posted with a poll option. The poll will run for a week, and whichever option wins is the cover, and the creator will get a reputation increase, and those hinted at other rewards *kicks record player and cues creepy music*

So, get to clicking, drawing, and photo shopping!

Probably a little too crude, but definatly current events related!
*check out steven's wrist strong braclet!*

Celestial Guardian · 09-23-2007

All I can say to that is wow. I think it's a little over the top, and wow. So Erus, are we sticking to the Inquistor nameor using the voted on one? This answer will help in cover design.

Lord Erak Grimnar · 09-24-2007

Ok a few things.

1. I have done one how do I submit it?
2. I am asuming the new name is Imperial Doctrine (please tell me if im wrong)
3. Is it ok if I use the triforce as part of the cover (just don't want people to think it has anything to do with triforce.

Cagarner · 09-24-2007

I supose it would not be a good idea as Triforce its not really part of the site, just Erus' madness :-D

For everybody:

Try and upload the image on to the site gallery (or Photobucket.com) and post a link to it. That would be the easiest option. If you have any problems in doing so, then just PM me.

Templar Mikeel · 09-24-2007

Maybe the cover could have a central theme that goes with the articles of the issue? IDK, just my need to give ideas.

Lord Commander Erus · 09-24-2007

I like the idea of trying to have something Chaos related this issue for the new Codex, and for the one around Ork time, havign an ork made one... So.. Here is your challenge!

MAKE ME AN APOC WORTHY CHAOS PIC! (Or other army)

Also.. Liber Imperialis or Imperial Doctrine?

Lord Erak Grimnar · 10-02-2007

Ok I will start this of here is mine. (both are the same except for the name for whichever one we go with)

Imperial Docterine

Liber Imperialis

Not that good but it was a ***** gettin the white lining of the stitches and chaos symbols.

Krom_stormbrow · 10-02-2007

So how's this. I'm no artist so it's just internet downloaded images.

As a whole though it can all inter change however you like, just knocked together in half hour... (I should be working).

How's 'dis?

Gregor Xenos · 10-02-2007

Great job Lord and Krom!!

Heres mine:

Btw: looks alot better in PS format.. Not sure what I didnt do that I was sposed to.

Inquisitor Rosenadel · 10-02-2007

No offense meant to anyone who created a title page (I can't do anything like that), but I vote for a fight between Krom and Steve. They're both awesome, guys.

Gregor Xenos · 10-02-2007

Im afraid I'll have to agree....
Stevie's looks like something straight off the GW rack. Good job!!

SteveBerenyi · 10-02-2007

it was an OLD PR image they released about 10 or so years ago on a free flyer so i am thinking by this point it is public domain.

Celestial Guardian · 10-02-2007

D_C, I thought about using your army as one of the spotlights for the mag.

So I have these pics:
Cover?

Contents page

I combined several pics to make them, and on paper they look a lot sharper.

Krom_stormbrow · 10-02-2007

Hmm, I'll come back with something else using DC's.

Steve... you've raised the baton. It's on

Heroka Vendile · 10-02-2007

Steve:
It was used as the cover art for the 2002 published 40K short story anthology Words Of Blood, it depicts a scene from the first story in the book, "Words Of Blood" (surprise surprise).

</useless knowledge>

But, us disclaiming the art as not our IP, not charging for it, and crediting GW/that anthology would make it ok, yes?

Templar Mikeel · 10-02-2007

My vote goes for Steves. Hey Erus, does that picture of Celestials look like a good page for that codex idea we have?

presumably, but GW lawyers are know to be [explicit word]s sometimes with this kinda thing. I'd say leave it as a backup maybe? Afterall for a fan-mag you want as much as possible to be fan produced.

Well, true. We could always combine Celestials rendering of D_C's marines, and add the text and text like graphics from Steve's...

Lord Erak Grimnar · 10-02-2007

Well I am out of the running lol. But yer I prefer fan made instead of just getting old GW pictures and putting it as our mag. Isn't whole point of us changing the name just so we don't get in trouble with the other site which makes a similar magazine. Imagine what would happen if we used GW stff we would get in more trouble. Also we just want it mroe unique to us.
