Artist's Comments

The final of the GLaDOS ball series from Valve's award winning game, Portal. This is the red, angry, ball. I didn't really know what to put in the background text, since all it does is growl at you, and the main text itself is taken not from the ball or even GLaDOS, but from the turrets in the game, it just happened to suit this. Also, I decided to go for an appearence of movement, given the aggressiveness of the Red Ball, so I used motion blur and shots from different angles to achieve that effect.

Anyway, I'm considering doing one of these for the turrets and the Companion Cube. I'll probably do those within the next few days.

Comments appreciated :D

Cool! I like the movement effects. It really looks like it's angry.
Don't worry about the quote being wrong, it's the same with the blue one anyway.

Good job! I'm looking forward to your other ones.
If I could offer my opinion on the companion cube one, the background text should be filled with all the GLaDOS quotes pertaining to the euthanasia of the companion cube. Not sure about the main quote... It is, after all, your art not mine. =P

Thanks for the comments! I was thinking of doing just that for the Companion Cube, but I also am at a loss of what to put as the main text. Oh well, when I go through all of GLaDOS's lines regarding the Cube, I'll find something that should fit. :D

I've got it!
Especially if the background is filled with text relating to euthanaising the companion cube...
"Please take care of it" :D

I love all of these. I'm using this one right now.

But I was wondering how hard it would be to make widescreen versions?
