I've created the GitHub repository for community assets. MarkPeterJamesLegg if you want access to push to this repo, or if you want me to just put your work on there, let me know. This would be for raw and completed assets (PSD and PNG).

Sorry all for my silence over the last week, been very busy with work and looking after my little boy. I've also been busy looking further into Photoshop and have been busy playing with idea's, mainly to improve my ability with the software, I have spent the last week playing around with this...



This was made from scratch, starting with a very high resolution image of a Sea Master's watch.

The assets used...

Or with the Bond spiral...

Neat concept! I really like the first one (non bond spiral) the best. The right side of the watch does seem a slight bit un-natural looking against the skin, mostly noticable around the knob part. Great work though!

[markpeterjameslegg]

Thanks Torn, I never noticed that, I'll have a go at fixing that now

[markpeterjameslegg]

Fixed...

"Why are we not funding this?"
I'm not sure which I want more, the menu looking like the N64 Menu Screen, or the Watch Pause Screen. BOTH LOOK AMAZING!!! Sorry, getting hard to control myself when looking at your stuff.

I prefer the watch more than the old folder screen. Adds a new feeling to the menu, not everything *has* to be like it was in the N64 in my opinon.
Maybe it would look good if it was fullscreen, with the "Find Server, Create Server,..." and all that in the tabs it had at the bottom of the screen, but maybe the center would look empty so not sure about that. Also, is it possible to make it animated and have the moving scan lines? That would be a good detail with the sound included.
At the top you could add "Q WATCH V4.3" or something like that, too.

Great idea with the animated scanlines and sound effect Graslu. I was thinking that you could have an animated dial and click on the watch to move through menus, you could also have a James Bond hand instead of a mouse pointer...

You mean a hand....within a hand?

[markpeterjameslegg]

These UI elements on the watch dial are a little less of an eye sore...

[markpeterjameslegg]

Added Q-Watch text at the top, also adjusted brightness and transparencies to make menu text stand out better...
