Fate/Apocrypha Translation (no spoilers)

[aldeayeah]

Comparison between font. Vote which looks better, folks.

I proposed cursive Cambria for those :T

Still, 1.

[Sarn]

2, definitely.

Edit: Also I do think Saber of Red/Black makes more sense than Red/Black Saber, in the context of CanonRap's translation.
Plus I like this naming better.
Detail though.

Neither, terrible font choices.

Also terrible use of drop shadow.

[Break]

Man i havent followed the translation in a while because i kind of lost track where i stopped... Used to follow it right when the next update came, but man, now...

[Rafflesiac]

2, and stick with "Servant" of "Color".

[yokushi]

1, 2 looks too cartoonish for me.

I see. I do not know the good way of proper drop shadow; I think the one used right now has very much resemble the original one.

I know my works can be considered sloppy for those who are very experienced in Photoshop, but nevertheless, I really want to help and contribute. If anyone better than me in Photoshop wants to take over, I would be more than gladly to give him/her full support of the images I compiled and the photoshop I've compiled, but AFAIK, so far I am the only one who wants to go through this.

So please, do bear with my amateur skill for a while.

Incidentally, Petrikow, if you have an example of good way of using Drop Shadow and a better font choice, might you be so kind to give it to me? I want the last result to be as good as possible.

[castor212]

As per Petrikow and aldeayah feedback, I tried to improve for 1st opt. I twinkle a bot with drop shadow and the font is now Cambria, and I have to say this one is better than the first #1.

This is now considered #1.

Spoiler:

[Petrikow]

That looks a little better.

[castor212]

4 against 3 now. I'm closing the vote the moment I get the translation for the profile pages.

Which is gonna be a bloody long time.

[aldeayeah]

y no italics T_T

[castor212]

y no italics T_T

Me personally dont like it :P

[Paitouch]

I twinkle a bot with drop shadow

Stop using drop shadow. There are other layer styles, outer glow with the blend set on normal for example. And listen to aldeayeah, italics look nice here.

personal preference. PLus, I am on the opinion that drop shadow may be bland but universal. But I'll try to plllay around with it a bit.

- - - Updated - - -

Also, I've got a good soul doing translation for me, and it seems that everyone likes the opt #1 better, so I'll stick with it.

[Frostedflakes]

Hmm imo I prefer Pai's version. It is more pleasing to my eye and more 'natural' looking I would say.

- - - Updated - - -

Also two week late thanks to canonrap for the update I have been preoccupied as of late and have not had time to read it yet tho

[castor212]

This is my latest and maybe last change, wit Outer Glow using different color for each picture. The color change is subtle, but it;s there.

Also, could you guys check the profile page for Archer of Black and Fiore in my post a page back? I'm gonna starting to work on the profile pages now that I got the translation, and maybe you have feedback or complain fot the fonts or whatnot.

[aldeayeah]

only nitpick is the hyphenation of Bucharest

[castor212]

only nitpick is the hyphenization of Bucharest

Yup, it's spelled Bucharest.

[LoyaltL]

I still like the old #1
