I've been using gmod lately to make a bunch of pro-combine posters

This is the first ever poster I've done, I gave it a more drawn-like feel by using grain and clarity in post-processing

I've continued to follow a heavy post-process system to create my posters, this was my second poster as shown underneath. Obviously there are many underlining issues however it was my first attempt to create a hostile enviroment and include multiple ragdolls.

This was the first time I properly found out how to utilize Willards models to create posters, obviously this one resembles the faith versus traitor side of rebel and combine relationships. There is a minor clipping issue on the officers back however apart from that I'd say the poster was fine. I again used the same grain and clarity to try and provide a drawn-like feel. I also added a small glitch effect as the train provided blue light and the end of the train cart it shone red light at the rebel.

I created this poster in response to my first near-PK on my Civil Protection character, in this scenario we had a outland biotic attack us, it successfully managed to take down a rank leader. We managed to escape eventually. This poster isn't accurate to how it went however I like it, even if the lighting isn't the best. The area also provides a really minimalist look which was easy to work with.

This is the most recent poster I've finished, I ended up crashing when I was about to start posing fingers so we have a major amount of issues including the t-posing OTA in the background, the terribly posed CP vaulting the barricade and the finger posing issue on every weapon wielding ragdoll. The lighting was almost perfect however on the ground you can notice these weird shadows to which I'm not even sure where they came from.

This poster is also the first one where I properly utilized the /poster command in console, giving it a much richer quality.

I'm probably not going to make intensive posters involving dozens of ragdolls as I'd rather not have my GMOD crashing every time I try to move it five meters.

I'm open to criticism revolving my three latest posters considering they properly show-off my ability than my first two.​
 
I've used another piece of software and created an effect that I really like, I may continue learning to use other effects, here's the poster:​

Yoo, elaborate on this, that effect looks sick

Used a polygon generator, restructured the entire thing to triangles, added saturation and generated utilizing a colour scheme

Another GMOD poster art for my characters biography; this time escaping the metro.​

Fun little fact: Each time I create a poster I listen to a song to try and emulate the feeling the protagonist has; for this one, my primary character VICE-66, for this poster I used:

I'll be making posters for each faction, no reason for doing this whatsoever, just having fun​
 
Decided to move onto SFM as it's literally better made for posters and animations. I haven't watched any tutorials yet on proper etiquette but I think the stance and lighting is fine. Imagine there's like a red neon sign behind the combine unit, a terminal to his front left and a light source to the front right.

This is my first time using SFM properly.​

I say the only downside of SFM is if I wanted to use willard maps I'd need to section it off to smaller pieces but that would require me to get permission from atle, rad and astro to receive the BSP files.
