Here is what I made to have it put on a t-shirt for the Rammstein concert this summer in Tallinn:

The end result didn't turn out to be as good as I hoped, the colours weren't as bright and sharp but rather blurry for some reason.

[Lifthrasir]

I like the GPOTW# 52 pretty much

PS: Rammstein, are they still crazy as they used to?

[Araval]

Thank you!

Proffessionally crazy!

@ Araval
Nice entry, post #64.
I am not sure I recognize the game from the GPOTW.
Is it the witcher?

[Araval]

Thank you!
It's Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor campaign Lord of the Hunt.

The upper is for Gamil the Lord of the Broadbeams and the lower is for Frar the Lord of the Firebeards

And the starting family members were revealed in a mini AAR by Ngugi:

On the left side are Durin with his sons Regin (the starting heir) and Borin. Durin's brother on the right side is Fundin the Lord of Iron Hills.

I like your work lots, those Dwarven portraits are superb, just makes me want to start a new TATW game.

[Lifthrasir]

^^ I second that

[paleologos]

If only those background textures did not show their tiles...
I could dig up/conjure an alternate texture for you if you want.

Cedric made those UI elements. Though Ngugi made the calls concering them, I'll note him about this.

[cedric37]

You can fix those, if you feel like a good lad.
There were amongst my first UI's so they are not flawless, far from it.

[Ngugi]

Aye, would be swell

[paleologos]

Give me your originals and general instructions/preferences ie, do you want them to look like marble or like parchment and what general hue do you prefer?

[Araval]

Another example of the current version in use:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I'm thinking maybe marble would be better and general hues should be the same.

Attached the dwarven UI file.

[cedric37]

Good luck with this remind me some nice hours I had doing this.
The marble seemless - ness does not look so good
I think there are some tutos somewhere on how to make seemless textures.
(which I used AFTER having made this UI obviously)

[Lifthrasir]

Another solution is to find the marble texture bigger or with the right size for this kind of work
