This is project different from the EB ENV-ART. This is a freeform expression that isnt constratined by envelopes nor contains a personal letter. You can explore whatever medium, whatever you want to draw on, photography, music, video, 2-d, 3-d, whatever! This is entire creative freedom, but it must be encapturing, and ZEALOUS! Whatever the case, make a propaganda poster to foster a FURVOR and AMBITIOUS nature about EB. You are FIGHTING for this game and convince the people with this poster to be interested in this franchise!Since this is a fan effort and not only one voice should be seen infront of many, I felt this would be the best option to hit it to 'em.

Make your own EB propaganda!
  • EarthBound
  • MOTHER 3!!!
  • NESS, LUCAS & Co kicking BUT in Smash Bros.
  • Saturn marches!
  • Band music posters!
  • Whatever However, as long as it pimps out EB!

There are many people to look up that can give you inspiration for this.
  • Alexandr Rodchenko
  • Piet Zwart
  • El Lissitzky
  • and more

These are artists that deal in appealing to the masses.
You can also look up other War Propaganda art such as the Uncle Sam posters.
If you have any ideas of good examples,POST THEM HERE!

There are several EB examples, but remember, you need to apply it to the present situation, make sure it is relevant! Make the poster strong powerful and noticable!

As you can see, a good use of Type, along with perspective/vanishing point and simple shapes with a bold presence is present in a majority of these works. Try to use these elements in your work when and where you can.

If you make a poster, try to make it at 11x17 with a 250dpi at the minimum!!! If it is a postcard, 8x6in and you can fold it in half to make a 4x6 card (250dpi minimum as well!!!)!! I know these posters will be large in size, but when you later want to print them out for all to see, you will be glad it is at this size. You can be creative and not only do posters, you can do folded objects like boxes, or specially designed envelopes or inventive postcards. whatever you make, make sure you can complete it fully with out too much cost and that you can mail it! Be creative, but dont push it too far or it may not work! Sometimes, when you go simple, it can be just as effective!! Very Happy

There is no deadline, but as you all know this is an urgent situation, you are now fighting the best you can for the games that you all love. You need to now put that effort towrads something aimed at getting their attention. This is the time, and it is your time to act! We can not do this by just a few anymore.

These posters will be sent to various media agenies and also turned into postcards to be sent via mail as well. These will also be used for other progandistic EB opportunities down the road. I am also trying to to focus artists and people to take action on their level as well fueled by Starmen.net along with Starmen.net being fueled by fans and their efforts which is done already. Its a double attack and it will continue.

I should also mention that this is only the first wave effort. NP Siege V is not only called V(5) because its the fifth one. There will be five different waves of attack! Those will be released as it comes. This is the first of many. "V" also stands for Victory (corny I know, but who cares) because in this Siege because we won't take nothing else than a victory of a recognition of the EB fanbase and franchise from Nintendo.

      Perhaps I can start with a Saturn / Phase Distorter propoganda poster, like "We Have Super Machine, Boing!"

      Another idea could be "We're sick of 'em, Beat Giygas!" with Master Barf getting smaaaashed by Ness.

      PD_DXO is right that's great. Perfect example.

      yeah, it is a little creepy and I don't like how jeff is just standing in the background, but the use of colors is great and it really attracts your attention, so it is still a perfect example.

      2750x4250 pixels is 11x17 at 250dpi. You multiply the inches by the dpi (dots per inch) to get the total dots (or pixels).

      If you are using photoshop you can change the dpi in the image size options. or resize in paint shop pro.

      dpi= dots per inch, at 250 dpi a 8x6 postcard would need to be 2000x1500 pixels.

Take up your bat and join up to fight all (something) street gangs and old ladies, crazy hippies, and gian bug monsters. All while seeing the world one cheeseburger at a time. Heading off, your friends ask 'where are you going'.

      If you can get your hands on some sort of vector-based drawing software, you may find this to be easier to work with for this type of art. I know that I'll likely be using Flash to do my propaganga art for the simple fact that it's much easier for me to make clean shapes in, than something like Photoshop (MIND YOU, I've been doing a little experimenting and have found a way to get somewhat cleaner lines in Photoshop than I used to -- I've found that putting a sheet of paper over my tablet surface and drawing on THAT has a more natural kind of grain/tooth to it, allowing me to work somewhat more smoothly than before.)

      I remember using a program called Expression, by Creature House was alright, but it's since been aquired by Microsoft, and I'm not sure how easy the old version is to find anymore. I THINK it was free, but I don't remember.

      Adobe Illustrator is my preferred program, though I understand it's not exactly a program everyone can get.

      Anyway, I resized the coffee picture to fit the stated standard. I don't know if that mattered much or not. Picture is huge.

      I'll see if I can think of something else, better.

      Huh, apparently "willing to be" does not cause images to upload. Looks I'll have to do it the normal way.

      Should be alright now. However, I'm not sure I like how thin the cup has become to fit the dimensions.

      Kicks puppies for cold, hard cash.

        What? How come I didn't see this before?
        I'll probably make a new one Smile Maybe something Mothra2 / Urfbound related...

        EDIT: Now that I've read the mission statement thoroughly, I think I'll stick to the Mother3 stuff haha.

        I need to make something with OH MY PORK on it. I'm sure that will get someone's attention Very Happy

        I don't know if suggestions are disallowed or not, but if anyone's craving for ideas, I think a poster for the Runaway Five or DCMC (or the Live House, for all you Mother 1 fans) would be awesome. Posters like this have some really awesome and unique art (you can probably check Google for examples), and I'd think they would fit this perfectly.

        I apoligize if suggesting without doing any actual work isn't allowed or is frowned upon in the fan forum, but I really don't have any artistic ability, so I figured I'd throw my idea out there. I know Jonk mentioned band posters in his opening post, but it doesn't look like anyone was biting so I figured I'd put my two cents in and say how awesome they'd be.

          So, I made this poster, but the full-sized one is a 2MB PNG, so I can't upload it anywhere.


          But here's the shrunkified version:

            Yeah, and I'm not quite satisfied with the background... Maybe the edges need blurring or something. Jeff looks skinny because I had to manually resize them with click-n-drag. I'll fix next time I'm on that computer.

            Aside from Jeff, I think that looks really cool, especially if you imagine that they are all going *WWHHHHHHRRRRRR*

            Here's one taking Skulryk's idea into action.
            Though, there needs to be another one, yet, with a better siege slogan.

            EDIT: This one's updated on good advice.
            Well, that’s my mamma!
