Editorial Noir with Horizontal Wheel
1. Platform View 2 (Nintendo Gamecube)
2. Platform View 2 (Sega Genesis)
Over the past week I have been working on a horizontal view for the Editorial Noir theme ported by Faeran. I wanted to experiment with a black and white printed newspaper style to embrace the themes presented with Epic Noir by chicuelo. I have built out the new platform view 2 wallpapers and controller images independently from platform view 1, which allows the user to switch between the two styles from within the same theme.
If anyone would like to make additional platform images, the size is 2050 x 950. I then used a tone map in affinity to make the images black and white. I am sure photoshop has a similar tone map profile. Below I will post other platform images that have been stylized.
Please let me know your thoughts if this style direction is something people would be interested in. Black and white images really pop on high contrast displays. With community creator 1.0.8.5 just releasing, it appears there are new tools to flesh out a truly unique black and white theme.
-- Thank you to Faeran and Y2guru for your work in helping make theme creation mainstream.
