Digital qbicfeet's grid-based minimalistic fanart

Hello there!

Today I've been playing around in Adobe Flash, trying to do something productive (for once!). After a few hours of toying around, this is the result:



I'm reasonably content with the finished work and thought it'd make a nice minimalistic desktop wallpaper for anyone who happens to be interested.

Download links (right-click + save target as):
1920x1080 (full wallpaper)
Large (> 1280x720, requires manual adjustment)
Small (< 1280x720, requires manual adjustment)

Hexagonal, clean (1920x1080) [NEW!]
Hexagonal, silhouette (1920x1080) [NEW!]

Manual adjustment instructions (assuming Win 7):
Right click on desktop > Personalize > Desktop Background > Set Picture Position to Centered > Scroll down and set Background Color to pure white (RGB 255, 255, 255).

---

With that said and done, I'd love to hear what you think! Any criticism is welcome!
Although I have a history of procrastination, I *might* be able to take requests if you want a personalized avatar or something... Just don't expect too much

Thanks for stopping by!

(Also, obligatory shoutout to the Ridiculous Fishing guys, whose art style I was inspired by!)

 

That looks nice! /Bacon Likes/

 

This is some excellent artwork.

 

Already set as my new background. Nice job!

 

Fantastic stuff qbic, nice to see it without the annoying watermark.

 

I liked the art, but I'm not a fan of pure white background space. So I did this to it. Some might consider it too busy for a wallpaper, but it's right up my alley.

 

Nice, keep up the work

 

I considered doing something like that, but just like you say I think it's too cluttery for a wallpaper. I like to keep it simple and ordered.

Glad that you like it and edited it to suit your preferences, though!

 

Thanks! I actually continued to tinker and eventually settled on this. (changed this link to the fixed one)

I could probably get it to be better by remaking it and planning ahead, but I'm too lazy.

edit: ugh just noticed imgur jpg'd it and artifacted it up. It's not like that on my desktop. Fixed it: http://i.imgur.com/srrqUJb.jpg

 

Neat. I did a little revision myself that covers the entire desktop without being *too* cluttery and thought you might enjoy it. The results are here and here.

 

That's great !

 

That actually Really Awesome. You have my Upvote Sir!

edit: I think I'll have to steal your artwork muahahaha. I need a nice new Starbound Wallpaper. Sadly i need it for a 4480x900 Setup, and I'm not a fan of JUST black background.

editedit: I also get a headache from so many colors all over the place, I could have like, the Hexes on the left screen and a planet on the horizon and like, a warp scene on the center screen then a star or another planet on the right with the logo.

editedit...edit: What Program did you use? If at all possible (if you used Photoshop or Illustrator) Can you PM me a link to the original editable HEX file? I'll repost what i make here with full credit to you!

 

I used Adobe Flash CS5.
I'd rather not upload the source files, but if you tell me the specifics of your setup (I'm assuming 3 monitors? If so, post the individual resolution of each one) I might be able to work something out just for you

 

Oh qbicfeet, I remember you from the Terraria days. This art is amazing, I never actually liked the style before, but you've gotten me to change my mind.

 

Haha, that's great! I assume quite a lot of the old Terrarians have migrated here, so I hope to see some familiar faces when the game is out and I start getting more involved with the community

 

Here is a biscuit, you deserve it!

really like this looks amazing! i literally just put it as my wallpaper

 

This is an amazingly bright and crisp wallpaper, with a unique style. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

And congratz on being this weeks Art Feature in Vector Squared!
