Custom billboard resources

It's so great that we have all these graphic designers in the community because there isn't a lot of stuff out there, especially for more obscure animals like the babirusa. Finding this out the hard way
Indeed. I do not have a single shred of drawing or painting skills, so I'm using google, pintrist, wikipedia (particuarly the maps showing current range of species), my own PZ shots, anything really. But to have original artwork is another level that I will never get to. I'm in awe and, I'll be honest, envious as well. But mostly in awe.
 
You can use my work if you want, just credit me if it’s showed somewhere. :)

The hypnotizing snow leopard!

@ZSH : Thank you so much for the helpful overview!
@Ulysse : Really gorgeous artwork!

It's really inspiring to see the pictures you guys are making. I initially thought I wouldn't use the custom billboards, but I'm actually very eager to try! Although I lack any talent in terms of visual arts, all I can do is arrange graphics. I really admire how many of you are so good at drawing!
 
Drawing is my job! :D
And my personnal work is mostly around animals, nature, bestiary with hybrids between animals and plants (and some rocks). A kind of naturalism. Making graphism isn’t my comfort zone but it’s a way for training with the game and custom billboards.

Btw Rudi has posted this video on the custom billboards!

I watched Paulsley's tutorial yesterday and he recommended a site called Canva. There are lots of templates already made to use, lots of animal stickers, backgrounds, textures, and real pictures. You can also use the paid pictures if you can live with a watermark. If you make a tiny sign or a collage of pictures I think it would be hardly noticeable in-game.

Here's the link: https://www.canva.com/

Also, check out these awesome education signs someone made and posted on Reddit. To get an idea of what you can do: Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/PlanetZoo/comments/mhswty/for_those_making_their_own_boards_at_home_allow/
 
If anyone knows where to find paintings like zoos will often have in the back of indoor exhibits, please let me know. I'm looking specifically for some to use in a nocturnal house setting.
 
Thank you! ☀️

@Urufu1997 You can discover my work with these links: https://linktr.ee/ulysse.loup
All of those are absolutely beautiful. I'm definitely subscribing to you on Instagram. I have a Idea for a Picture. I know it is absolutely normal for Sloths to have Algae growing in their Fur, but how about a Sloth that has a giant red or pink Blossom growing between its Shoulders (I'm imagining it with a Blossom that looks like the Blossom of a Lily). Sadly my Drawing Skills are way too underdeveloped to draw it myself but I would love to see it
 
@ Urufu1997 I will draw sloths one day! When I work on an animal, I take flowers or plants that come from its environment because it's about camouflage. I will do some research before. But yes, the flowers will be beautiful on him!

Today: african leopard! He isn’t in the game for the moment but maybe in the future... 🤷🏻‍♂️
