[request] original ascii artwork

[request] original ascii artwork

alt.ascii-art · 3 messages · 26 Nov 2001 - 26 Nov 2001
Hi,

I'm creating a computer game called 'The War of the Ring' and I'm looking 
for some ascii art for the title screen. The game is a fantasy roguelike 
game based on LOTR by JRR Tolkien.

If anyone has created any original (96 char ascii!) artwork related to LOTR
please let me know.

If I use your artwork:
 1. your initials (if present) will not be removed.
 2. you will be mentioned in the 'credits' section of the game and README.
 3. no modifications save font and size will take place.

 Thank You very much.
 Ralph Moeritz

What about something like this:

               Three::rings
          for:::the::Elven-Kings
       under:the:sky,:Seven:for:the
     Dwarf-Lords::in::their::halls:of
    stone,:Nine             for:Mortal
   :::Men:::     ________     doomed::to
  die.:One   _,-'...:... `-.    for:::the
 ::Dark::  ,- .:::::::::::. `.   Lord::on
his:dark ,'  .:::::zzz:::::.  `.  :throne:
In:::the/    ::::dMMMMMb::::    \ Land::of
:Mordor:\    ::::dMMmgJP::::    / :where::

  all,::One      `-----'        ring::to
   ::find:::                  them,:One
    Ring:::::to            bring::them

        them:In:the:Land:of:Mordor
           where:::the::Shadows
                :::lie.:::

or that:

               Three..rings
          for...the..Elven-Kings
       under.the.sky,.Seven.for.the
     Dwarf-Lords..in..their..halls.of

           where...the..Shadows
                ....lie....

I am not an ascii artist, but I had this idea some weeks ago. Diddles
are welcome.

Cool. I've been waiting for someone to request ascii art for a
roguelike.

This isn't title screen stuff but maybe you can use it.
