Welcome to the New D3Vlicious Blog

Back when I started the original D3Vlicious.com site, it was originally just supposed to be a site for me to post share my stuff related to fighting games and the arcade sticks we play them on. After the first few months however, the site became more and more like an actual fighting game news site with a bit of focus towards arcade sticks and hardware as I tried to see if I could pull more page views. Now while that didn’t work out as well as I had thought, it did help open the door to me writing for the Shoryuken.com front page as well as helping out on SDTECHIN.com.

With that done, the question remained of what to do with my original site. After a bit of soul searching, I’ve decided to bring the site back to what it originally was, a place for me to write about fighting games and show off the stuff that I do for the community.

Making Your Stick Pretty: A Custom Stick Art Guide/Tutorial

Note: This article was originally posted over at Shoryuken.com‘s forums before eventually being published on the front page of that site.

Since alot of people have been asking, I’ve decided to go ahead and create a guide/tutorial on creating custom stick art. Now before I start, let me state exactly just what I will be presenting here. What we have here is a simple tutorial for getting started on creating decent looking custom art for your stick. What is wont do however is teach you how to be as good as some of the better artists on this board, at least not immediately, just like with fighting games, being that good is a matter of practice and experience. It assumes that the reader has at least some basic Knowledge of Photoshop or any similar image editing software.
