Small addition to up the intensity a bit.

Needs more red/blue on the mini-map, maybe a cop car or 2.

This city needs a hero

u/Zmodem Aug 23 '13

I really like this one, very creative. Also, goes to show just how shitty Gotham gets in Batman's hands. Is it me, or does Gotham just seem to get worse, eventually? :)

It turns out that "Just leave it to an unhinged billionaire to clean up vigilante-style" wasn't the best policy for urban redevelopment.

u/chr0nic2k11 Aug 22 '13

Awesome job, dude! I wanted to do this but it kept looking terrible. Glad to see someone did it- and did it right.

u/Zmodem Aug 23 '13

Tell me you didn't just clone stamp that and that you built a pattern for the bricks, right? :) NICE job! This was what I was considering doing.

amazing job how can i make this higher res i want this as my new wallpaper for my iphone 5

u/somethingpretentious Aug 24 '13

It's already really high res, what do you mean?
But also you can't improve the resolution, it's like CSI 'enhance'.

u/Absay Aug 23 '13

Fucking clever, I hate you!

u/[deleted] Aug 25 '13

Damn! I was thinking of a similar concept but with those realistic chalk art pieces on streets..meta stuff. But this is great!

The hero Manhattan deserves.

u/1stLtObvious Aug 22 '13

Although due do slightly differing styles the Batman picture used still looks photoshopped into the picture, kudos on transforming the original picture into a comic book style!

u/Absay Aug 23 '13

This was pretty much my idea! But I suck balls in Photoshop though, so I didn't even try. Kudos, dude!

Damnit. I had the same same idea before I saw yours: http://i.imgur.com/ruj4i58.jpg

5 changes.

u/Zmodem Aug 23 '13

Megusta, Keanu and DiCaprio are hilarious, but the death star was a nice touch.

By the way, what is that above Spider-Man? Is that a floating boombox or a camera? Couldn't figure that one out.

u/AtomicDouche Aug 22 '13

Good idea, bad shop.

u/digplants Aug 22 '13

Thanks! I dont aim to be a professional but I have fun with my shops and this was just a spur of the moment kinda thing.

10

u/AtomicDouche Aug 22 '13

That's probably the right way to Photoshop. As long as you are having fun!

Where's Wally?

u/milvus Aug 22 '13

Wheres Wally? In Manhattan

Bonus: Wilma, Odlaw, Woof, Wizard Whitebeard, Wally's Key, Binoculars, Wenda's Lost Camera, Missing Can of Film, Wizard, Whitebeard's ScrollWoof's Lost Bone

2

u/cyberleadr Aug 24 '13

I still can't believe you Brits call him Wally... I mean Odlaw doesn't make any sense if it isn't Where's Waldo.

2

u/milvus Aug 24 '13

You do know that Where's Wally? is a British creation.

2

u/cyberleadr Aug 26 '13

Right, next you'll be telling me Harry Potter and Sherlock Holmes are British too. And that Doctor Who you all love over there... that's based on a US TV movie from 1996, fyi.

A bit unfair as there is one more painter than sprayer...

u/Zmodem Aug 23 '13

For the win, yes, Patrick :)

Patrick, Waldo, dickbutt, bunch of Zodiac shit, and Blink-182 drunkyface.

u/SimonSays_ Aug 23 '13

Music is not your thing, is it? It's Led Zeppelin and NIRVANA!

u/Zmodem Aug 23 '13

It is, but I don't think I paid attention to the symbolism association very well ;)

u/platasnatch Aug 22 '13

i can't help but think last weeks winner had this in mind.

u/Zmodem Aug 23 '13

A terrible, but subtle, change. My first time with something this drastic, lines are horrible, everything's funky, but was a good shot.
