Request: Diablo 3 Lumia 1520 Home Screen

Hey guys, so it seems I’ve been inundated with gaming home screen requests this month…not that I’m complaining 🙂

Especially when the request for Diablo 3 came along. Although I haven’t played the game thanks to my PC being about 5 years old…I was a massive fan of Diablo 2, and bought the Diablo 3 Book of Cain because the artwork was just so damn beautiful.

Needless to say when Julian asked…I couldn’t refuse the challenge:

So check out the gallery for the results, video should give you a good idea of the PNG effect (1080p available). Also, just another shout-out to @Phantomsurfr on Reddit who’s got me hooked on these side-scroll Kid’s Corner lock screens..

If you’d like to check out the images and PNG’s I used, hit the link.

Request: Titanfall Lumia 1520 Home Screen

When I saw this request to do a Titanfall home screen I couldn’t resist.

@TileArtGuy A Titanfall home screen would be a perfect combination to my XBox TV screen.

Not because I thought the game was awesome, but because earlier this week I got inspired by a guy called @Phantomsurfr on Reddit who created this epic lock screen.

I took that idea and tried to apply it to one of the main Titanfall wallpapers. Check the video out for the result. Hope you like your home screen @70thCmdr 🙂

If you’re looking for the images used in this home screen you can check them out here. Did a pretty shit job turning the images transparent, but it’ll look good once you pin them to the phone I promise 🙂

Super Mario Lumia 1520 Home Screen (Landscape)

Been a while since I posted something…figured I better have something good to show for it 🙂

I’ve actually had a few requests for Super Mario, the most recent of which was from Gst Ngr Surya Winata:

@TileArtGuy can you make 8bit tile themes for WP8.1? like mario or pacman? 😀

— IGN Surya Winata (@srywnt) July 20, 2014

The trick with an 8bit Mario theme is that our heroic plumber generally runs from left to right, and in a world of vertical home screens that’s a pretty tough challenge.

So, I could either do a generic blocky home screen or try something completely different…I went for the latter. Hope you guys enjoy the results

Two things to keep in mind about the home screen:

1. Although the icons are just transparent images pinned using PinPNG. If there was an “add action” feature we might be able to turn those static pics into working tiles!
2. This home screen is in a permanent state of landscape, so although it isn’t “practical” day-day, I think it’s a refreshing change

As always, if you guys are trying to create something similar for the fun of it…or just improve on what I’ve done. Link to the images can be found here.

Request: Gears of War

I didn’t even know there was a Gears of War comic until this guy came along…

What I found out is that there is in fact a Gears of War comic, published under DC’s Wildstorm. What I thought was pretty cool is the fact that Henry Flint did some of the inking for the series…this is the same guy responsible for Zombo, an awesome comic and the second home screen I ever created here on Tile Art Guy…not to mention the handsome devil at the top of this page 🙂

Anyway, @BazPants…hope you enjoy your Gears of War home screen my friend! 🙂

Original images can be found here, and the transparent PNG images here.

Request: Naruto

Although I’m still waiting for someone to request a kick-ass graphic novel or gruesome comic, I did promise the lovely Rubia that I’d take a shot at her Naruto home screen…which is definitely a step-up from Pikachu 😉

After putting this one together I found a new respect for Masashi Kishimoto, the artist behind Naruto. A lot of the imagery he created has this cool fish-eye lens effect which I thought was pretty awesome:

Anyway, here’s the home screen. Hope you like it Rubia:

This time I’ve tried to include all the PNG’s I used to pin on the home screen. You can find the pics here, and then I’d recommend using the PinPNG app to get them on your home screen. Sorry, my photoshopping skills were pretty shit with these, but it still looks great on the home screen.

Enjoy, and let me know if you guys have any requests?

Requested: Dota 2 home screen on my Lumia 1520

Right, a couple days ago I got a pretty fun request from a guy called Leaonardo..
https://twitter.com/leandroalmeidas/status/467004938632323073

My friend, your voice has been heard and I had a lot of fun putting this one together, particularly the contacts section 🙂 Hope you like it…

A link to some of the images I used and a few more brilliant fan-art pieces by ArtGerm who has some crazy talent.

Pikachu theme on my Lumia 1520 (for the kids)

I know what you most be thinking…why amongst the awesome artwork of Alan Moore, Marc Silvestri, Rufus Dayglo, David Finch and Frank Miller…is there Pikachu? Well, the truth is…someone requested it:

@TileArtGuy do you take requests? My kids would love a Minecraft or Pikachu one if so. 🙂

— KC Lemson (@kclemson) April 25, 2014

And I love a good challenge, so I figured why not do something fun for the kids. My little cousin saw this too and made me put it on his Lumia 520…not quite as cool as a 6 inch, three column, Windows 8.1 Lumia 1520…but he’s happy 🙂

Enjoy KC Lemson…
