Name: Gale McCenry
Face Claim Name: Oliver Altman
Animal Form Claim: N/A
Race: Human
Little About Your Character:
For this particular box code (since I change my box codes depending on certain eras in his life) Gale has been growing a slight sense of adventure. Though he still is very artistic, some new interests have been forming and he is starting to follow it. Those interests would be anything under the mythological, legend, or phenomenal categories. Things out of the ordinary that have yet to be discovered or explained. Since he's transitioning from a monotonous and rather disheartening life style, this new idea gives him a great sense of hope and mystery that I would greatly love to see expressed in the final product.
For colors do you want it specific to something about your character:
I'm not entirely sure I understand what you want here but if you're asking for a colour scheme then I would adore a rather mellow, darker type of feel. One that case colour in it and it's the main idea of the picture but the darkness around it making it look rather mystical in a way? I have an example that would greatly express this type of colour scheme along with the perfect idea of what Gale is trying to accomplish here.
Jagged, Smooth, Wavy, Straight (Text):
I'm not exactly sure what would look best though I think just straight text or possibly a slightly wavy text would fit the theme.
Characters favorite time of year:
Favourite time of year?Golly that's a tough one. I'm not entirely sure? Gale really likes all the seasons but I guess if you take his current view on things to the extreme he would like fall the best? I'm seriously not sure though but for this particular theme I guess it really shouldn't matter?
Specific traits of character:
Hypocritical. Very hypocritical. Gale is a hypocrite. He thinks he knows best but is almost proven wrong later, he holds a lot of guilt on his heart and he does have a rather gloomy way of presenting himself when he's not in an outrageously good mood. But he lends a good ear and is a very willing learning (with certain subjects) so overall he is just... Human I suppose.
Character Companion:
Gale has no companions as of now, at least nothing permanent. He isn't a huge people person and he's not an animal lover, definitely not.
NPC:
NPCs? Gosh, you want those too? Haha! What are you going to use a dead wife for? Well, I suppose if you REALLY want an NPC I suppose you could use Gale's wife when she was still around, though I don't suggest it?
Saying (May not be included, if you want it on. Put a ^):
I suppose you don't HAVE to add it in but if you think it'll look best with it added then a quote from Charles Lederer would do fine. ^ " There are no enemies in science, professor. Only phenomena to study."
What you don't want to see:
I have a few examples of what I really don't want to see. (Since I know that examples help me a lot when I'm doing this sort of thing)
1: No Nature. I don't want to see any trees are pretty flowers or nothing. That's just overdoing it in my opinion and it would make me very sad if I see some sort of plant or nature shot in this box code.
2: I probably don't want Gale to be in the box code unless you somehow make him look like he's reading a book or actually doing something mystical of the likes. I don't think I want his name in it either, most likely just the quote.
3: No clouds. The clouds just kill it for me unless used exactly the right way, which is relatively rare so I'd prefer not so see them.
4: Lastly, I don't want it toobright. There can be brights spots in it, like with that book picture, but I don't want to whole thing to be brights colours and such.
What do you have in mind:
Obviously, as you can tell, I want mysterious, mystical, or something that could potentially make someone gawk at, like if you saw a rainbow for the first time, type of feel. Something that makes you think it's unreal. I also have some examples to get your mind jogging.
1: Something misty like this would give off the feel I want rather nicely, though it doesn't have to have a certain shape. It can just be mist.
2: Something like this would be absolutely wonderful.
3: Something phenomenal with the hands is a good idea, if you're taking that sort of path with it.
4: I absolutely adore the idea of the fantasy like books. The books being open and these unimaginable things coming out of it. It very interesting and admirable idea that shows really how Gale sees these written legends and stories. If you're going to go with only one of these ideas, then this is the one I'd most like to see in it.
Style for background:
This is the part where you can add some colour if it becomes too bland and not having much colour or a lot of one colour. It can be anywhere from a colourful mist, you could get away with a setting here as long as it isn't forest, and you MIGHT be able to do some stars (don't use that exact one, since it is copy righted I believe) IF it isn't too cheesy. Stars give off that feel but it can be a little BAM!! In your face! type of feeling.
Things you liked from other creations:
I like several different ideas and arts from different people. Though I suppose this is my short list of things I find exceptionally enjoyable.
1: I'm not sure how much this would fit my theme but I always loved the idea of having the top of a picture be the top of the banner and the rest o f it being the bottom, like you did with Samantha's tiger one.
2: I like the overlapping pictures. Unless it's a good picture, the simple one picture with nothing else tires me after a bit. So Jules' (Pheonix's) Experience Awarded code for Papa Paragon is a a wonderful example. Has many pictures intertwined together for a lovely look.
3: I tend to like it when things blend together or fade off. Not sharp or "clean" cuts for me if you can help it. Elysium's Eosi Box code in her thread is a perfect example.
I redid these ones because the past ones are just crap. Sorry Gale! So I have a TUN of new images to play with for you and there are quite a few I think you'll very much so enjoy!
