As you may or may not know Che and I have recently announced the grand prize winner from
our official Graphic Design contest, and just when we thought we had the
community stumped, we click on the submissions thread
and realize that there are so many talented people on FM.net, that no challenge
is too difficult.
For this contest we really wanted to let people use their
creativity without any restrictions, so we left it pretty much wide open. The only guideline was that we challenged
players to create an advertisement for the recently released March Car
Pack. That’s all! No specific size restrictions and no editing
restrictions; anything goes. We did not
want to snuff out the creative fire burning deep in the souls of the artists
within the community, and as you can see the
results speak for themselves!
First Place Submission by: RoxxApexx
First Place goes to RoxxApexx with this extremely clean and
elegant advertisement. We were very
impressed with the layout of the design as well as the overall look. With lots of negative space and a very
balanced and organized look, this design took the first place prize! Congratulations to RoxxApexx, you are eligible for 3 free
cars of choice and 10 Million credits! Click here for the full size image.
Second Place Submission by: bloodlusty650Second place goes to bloodlusty650 with this Forza-esque
design, showing us what happens when players get a hold of their favorite cars in our game.
This design really caught our eye because it
looked and felt like some of the promotions for Forza 2.
As you all know customization is a huge part
of Forza 2, and this advertisement puts that on center stage for everyone to
see.
Congratulations on this second
place design that has won you 5 Million Credits and 2 free gift car of choice!
Third Place Submission by: mnkproThird Place goes to mnkpro with a high-tech advertisement
for the Mitsubishi Evo X.
The overall
look of this design, mixed with a clever comparison made this design stand out
of the crowd.
We really enjoyed the look
of the fonts and the detail that went into blending the cars and the ambient
background together in a seamless transition.
With such a great design we have decided to reward third place with 2
million credits and a free gift car of choice!
Great Work.
