Default Re: Cities and Videogames posters

In my opinion, the text ruins the poster. There's no need to add the "Stillsketch presents", "Cities and Videogames" and "Name of the city" on top of the drawing when you already have that information on the lower part. My eyes go automatically there, it's distracting, the drawing/sketch is the important part, the text is unnecessary. Keep everything on the white frame.

From the City 17 poster

Quote:
It resembles a post-Soviet harbour city, featuring mostly eastern european architecture and the citadel, a massive 2500 meters high metalic skyscraper
And this is from wikipedia

Quote:
City 17 visually resembles a post-Soviet harbor city featuring mostly Eastern European architecture. It features architecture styles dating from pre-World War II neoclassicism, post-war classical designs, Soviet modernism, and post-Soviet contemporary designs
It's a little similar, try to avoid it but I want more of this. You said he's an architect replace the "Aeris has been captured by Shinra..." and dedicate that paragraph analyzing the city, its morphology, etc etc etc. I think that adds a unique touch to the posters, just a short paragraph.
