So Challenge 3 of Jetrall's Apprentice Challenge was to make box art for Diablo 3. I turned in my entry and got a decent score on it. I decided, since the challenge is over to post it here so that everyone can see it and comment on it.
Here it is:

When I saw it, I was like, "That is fucking awesome." I thought you could have got a perfect score on it, but I am not a judge.:( Anyway that is really good, I could not have done that.

Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.
Oh, ya i copied and pasted but it took a long long time to perfectly cut out the border and the words. It took me probably 10-13 hours total to cut it out. Then i had to fix the image of Tyrael so that it fit behind the border and i had to play with hues, darken and add more red cus the image was pinkish and not as evil as it is know. Then i had to blend everything, add some black around the edges so that it looks like it was coming out of the darkness. It took a lot of time to make this.

I still would have thinked that Jetrall would have done something about it if it was a copy and paste. it is nothing about respect of the person, because if I was in a contest about writing an essay of a random famous person, and I copied a man/woman who already wrote on the famous person, I would be disqualified.

Fit behind the border? New layer.
Hues take no time.

Blending Options...
2 minutes?
Please know that I'm not trying to bash you. Constructive criticism. And if you used paint then it really is a great job. It looks very nice, but I'm just informing people that it's easy to create.

It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
Um, yes the hues didn't take that much time except for the fact that i couldn't find the hues button, lol! THe fading to black I didn't use blending options, i literally took the paintbrush, set the color to black, turned the opacity down and painted where i thought it looked good. The border, ya i did use the magic wand but it didn't select everything and the magnetic lasso wasn't working properly as it was catching things i didn't want and i couldn't get the flames with it so i had to zoom in all the way, shrink the eraser down to one pixel and erase the pixels that i didn't want. No thats not how i erased everything but to get the border to look properly that's how i did it. The border and words were from Jetrall's own box art and the picture of tyrael i found on photobucket.
P.S. Alpha, we're friends, we've been friends, I don't take anything that you said about my box art as an insult, just criticism from a friend.

About your problem with the magic wand, select hardness to 100%

What if you had to do a tiebreaker. I think they should pick the best two, and make two apprentices instead of one, but alas I don't know what Jetrall might do.

The reason i didn't get a perfect score was because there was no background it was just black, but whatever, i came close.

P.S. I will be rooting for you.:D
If it was a copy and paste job Alpha. Then why did he almost get a perfect score.

It's called respect.
P.S. It is a copy and paste.
Copy Jetrall's boxart, remove Tyrael, paste a new Tyrael.

I think it still good though. If I did it, I would be confused and don't know what I would have done.:D
