Happy May the 4th! Star Wars tile art theme

So, finally got around to doing the Star Wars #tileart theme. We had a few requests come in for this one…

@TileArtGuy Just want to say that i love you work! Any chance you can do a Star Wars tile art for the Lumia 1020?

After a lot of thought I decided to go with this Dark side vs Light side (Ying vs Yang) approach to the home screen. It doesn’t use the real-life characters from the films, but I think the comic book art adds a nice effect. I especially love the white theme.

One thing I have to say…is long live the stylus! This is the first time I’ve tried the stylus on my new Surface and it’s been incredible!. First time stylus user, so all those wacom experts please forgive my enthusiasm 🙂

Anyway, here are pics and videos to show the home screens in action. Links to the images at the bottom of the post:

The theme was only possible thanks to the awesome artwork form RebornRock, Kevin Nowlan, Tim Bradstreet, Tony Harris, Joe Quesada and chrono-strife

Request: She-Hulk Lumia 930 Tile Art Theme

So, it’s been a while since I last jumped into the tile art…for the last month or so I’ve managed to lose a phone, finish off one of the biggest work projects of my life, attend a wedding in Mexico and fulfill my life long dream of pretending to be a dolphin…

Now that I’m back I’ve jumped straight into finishing off the requests, starting with this one from MoBedeGuti:

Obviously I had to do a little digging into She-Hulk and if you’re interested here’s a great video about the Origins of She-Hulk.

Well MoBedeGuti, here you go bud:

As usual, you can find the PNG images used here.

Wolverine Lumia 1520 Home Screen

So, I have a friend who loves comics, Wolverine in particular. You could say he’s partly to blame for my love of all things “comic”. Decided to do something nice for the guy and mock-up a home screen I thought he might appreciate…maybe not as cool as his custom Wolverine Converse, but I’m hoping it’s a close second 🙂 Enjoy bud.

Images and PNG’s used can be found here.

Request: Green Arrow Lumia 1520 Home Screen

Well Mr. Saukerl…seems your request has been fulfilled.

@TileArtGuy Can u make a Green Arrow one? It's my favorite comics 😀

To be honest, I never thought much of Green Arrow, but after creating this home screen I’ve found a new respect for the character as well as the artwork.

Anyway, enough talk..here’s the home screen in action:

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.

The Darkness start screen on my Lumia 1520

Marc Silvestri and Todd Macfarlane were my favourite comic book artists growing up. Figured I’d start the homage to both with The Darkness, but many more like Witchblade, Spawn and Fathom will hopefully make an appearance here soon.

You can find all the images I used here, and the app was Custom Tile Maker.

Tank Girl tile theme on my Lumia 1520

I decided to play around with the ‘Light’ background option on the phone today. Figured it was time for a little punk and black & white artwork…so Tank Girl was an easy choice.

For this one, I’d definitely recommend checking out the Vine to see the full effect of the parallax background.

If you guys have any suggestions for what I should try out next, let me know?

As usual, all the images I used (and more) can be found here. App is Custom Tile Maker.
