Two weeks ago, Luciana posted an urgent “call for fan art” on MySpace and Facebook, inviting fans to submit Battlestar-centric banner designs.
Her booking agent had suggested she get a banner made to display at her booth at conventions. That is, she needed something like this, but better. Hence, in recognition of the amazing art some fans of hers had created, Luciana turned to them to help her out.
In spite of a tough deadline (just as few days over Easter), four fan artists rose to the challenge and submitted several designs, reflecting a wide range of styles. Eventually, Luciana chose one of the designs submitted by Ann Kristin “Gnisten” Herstad (click for full size):
Congratulations, Ann! We look forward to seeing the banner in its full glory at Luciana’s next convention, Motor City Comic Con.
- LiveJournalist admireddisorder created a clean banner that has an interesting retro feel to it (full size, 120 MB)
- my co-editor Frosty came up with two great designs, the latter of which bears much resemblance to this blog’s current header design (full size 1, full size 2)
- last but not least, Caprica City member penumbra created a stylish homage to Kat (full size)
Thanks to all participants!
