fracture_hectic Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Hi, *EDIT* Whoops, this should have gone in The Blue Casket, apologies. Could a mod help me out here? *EDIT* I've been working on these for a while now (since before the announcement of the remastering) and thought you guys might like to check them out now they're done. It's a series of faux vintage travel posters inspired by a few of the locations in the game. Enjoy. David (http://www.dmackenzie.com)
Huz Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Yeah those are very good. I like the El Marrow one, simple but effective. I wonder what the Year Four version would look like?! I'm not a mod but I reckon this thread might as well stay here - this bit of the forum sees more action that The Blue Casket anyway, which isn't saying much.
Sallim Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 I love all of them! Will be there a printable version for download? I would lvoe to print them out and hang them in my living room =) greets
Kolzig Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Those looks excellent. Would be amazing to get those poster sized like the other posters we have in Mojo.
the late D. Hurley Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 I love all of them! Will be there a printable version for download? I would lvoe to print them out and hang them in my living room =) greets Seconding this. Can I shoot you some cash to get a larger version I could print? Or do you offer them somewhere?
Shad_ Posted August 5, 2014 Posted August 5, 2014 Hi there, I'm part of a small French Grim Fandango community ("small" = we're 3 on our forum ^^) and I'm currently working on a GF related project: a 3D recreation of Manny's office (taking liberties). For now, only basic modelling in the desk half of the office has been done, details and life (some storytelling in order not to end up being a furniture magazine picture) still need to be integrated before proceeding to texturing and lighting. Here is the official thread in our forum where you can access WIP screenshots, changelogs, and discuss about the project (in case you'd like to provide some feedback, ideas, and so on): http://grim-fandango.forumactif.com/t35-creation-3d-bureau-de-manny And a preview of the last version: The reason why I'm posting a message here is that I recently ran into your work and think it looks amazing. I would like to know if you would allow me to make use of it in my project. Were I to complete it, you would of course be credited. I'm also open to further collaboration or resources exchange (somebody else seems to be working on a 3D Manny's office, this could be interesting). Things are still not settled down and depend on my free time, motivation, and skills; the ideal scene I'm aiming at would show Celso's hand holding the Number 9 flyer (1st person viewpoint) while the screen on the background would display his terrible records and the fact he doesn't qualify. Therefore your travel posters would be a key aspect of the finished scene. Here is a quick render that shows what the foreground part of Manny's table could look like using your work: http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2014/32/1407277744-objects-render.png sorry for the noise and weird lighting (quick render) and the flyers proportions (my mistake, I must have mistyped the posters dimensions). I hope you're interested. Feel free to refuse. If you don't, don't hesitate to contact me for further details (here, an other subject, by PM or in English in the forum where I hang out if not appropriate here). Cheers.
ramiz Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Seconding this. Can I shoot you some cash to get a larger version I could print? Or do you offer them somewhere? Thirded! I need this in my room!
fracture_hectic Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 Hi folks, Sorry it's taken me a while to get back here to reply. Thanks for all your appreciation of the posters. I don't have any plans to sell these as prints, primarily for copyright reasons, but there are .pdf versions available to download here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/m59fjdda3e9ke9a/Grim%20Travel%20Posters.rar?dl=0) if you have the facilities to do it yourselves. Shad_, feel free to use the posters in your project, best of luck with it. Cheers, David
Sallim Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Thanks David, will take some pictures when they are up. Thanks again
Shad_ Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Shad_, feel free to use the posters in your project, best of luck with it. Thank you. I'll try to make good use of it and keep you up to date.
N3mo Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Fracture I love your posters, and I really like the typefaces you used. I'm working on Grim vintage posters from like forever, but I never get proper time to finish them. You did a great job!
ramiz Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 Hi folks, Sorry it's taken me a while to get back here to reply. Thanks for all your appreciation of the posters.

Thanks a lot! Will upload photos of my flat if I have made them and put them on the wall.
ramiz Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 I have developed your artwork, and it looks beautiful! I have to mount them on some cardboard and I can put them on the wall, I will make a photo and share it!
fracture_hectic Posted September 8, 2014 Author Posted September 8, 2014 Fantastic, I'd love to see some photos if anyone has them printed out.
ramiz Posted September 21, 2014 Posted September 21, 2014 Fantastic, I'd love to see some photos if anyone has them printed out. Hi! Sorry for being late with the pics, I just got back from my honeymoon. I have put the posters in our hall because there is not much emply wall space in our room, and also I think these kind of travel posters kind of fit well in such a place. This will be the first thing anybody notices when arriving in our flat. (Well, apart from the fact that renovation of the flat is obviously still not finished... well this is a 120 years old building which has survived 2 world wars and 1 revolution during Communism, of course it is a little worn out! ) Anyway, here are the pics, I am really very happy about the results (they were developed in a photo shop for about 6-7 dollars a piece, and I have bought beer mat paper and done the sticking-cutting part myself). https://imageshack.us/download/903/IKaPC7.jpg https://imageshack.us/download/913/dQ2OOV.jpg https://imageshack.us/download/909/WY03cm.jpg Thank you for your work & the hi-res files again! Cheers! P.S.: My girlfriend/now wife/ became curious about the pictures, thus I have told her about it, showed the sondtrack in the car, thus after this we were listening to the Grim Fandango OST all along our honeymoon, and now she can't wait for the HD version to come out - so thanks for this, too!
fracture_hectic Posted September 23, 2014 Author Posted September 23, 2014 Hey ramiz, Those look great! I'm really pleased they turned out alright for you, thanks for putting up the photos. Best of luck with the rest of the renovation and kudos for creating another Grim Fandango convert!
Sallim Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 I presetend a friend 3 of your posters and he took soem photos. Will print them out for me soon and take even more pics. Thanks for sharing again, I just love these. edit: They are printed on glossy photo paper. Next time I will try matt one, and another paper =) http://i59.tinypic.com/zvsnf6.jpg http://i60.tinypic.com/2qauz9v.jpg http://i58.tinypic.com/id53r5.jpg Thanks to my friend, Kirill for taking these too
fracture_hectic Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Hey Sallim, thanks for posting those images, hope you enjoy them.
Tall Guy Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 Alas the dropbox link is broken These are fantastic pal. Any chance they're still available for download somewhere in a higher res? Would love to print them..
ramiz Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 Alas the dropbox link is broken These are fantastic pal. Any chance they're still available for download somewhere in a higher res? Would love to print them..I *think* I still have them in hi-res at home. Let me check.
CHAOSMAN Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 David was nice enough to provide me with an updated dropbox link here you guys go! https://www.dropbox.com/s/xgd0lh8m3zj9hzc/Grim-Travel-Posters.rar?dl=0
fracture_hectic Posted December 10, 2014 Author Posted December 10, 2014 Hi guys, Sorry for the radio silence, the forums seem to have been inaccessible to me for a while. As CHAOSMAN pointed out there's a new dropbox link there. Enjoy.
