Well... it's that time of year again
I'm starting a little early because I have a lot of ideas for this year and I ran out of time last year.

I'm doing the obvious choice of Left 4 Dead, focusing on the infected

starting it off with the smoker:

crits, suggestions and ideas for other valentines are as always much appreciated
and of course, feel free to save them and send them off to whoever on the special day :)

I don't remember who suggested "tickle fight" but i don't think i've ever giggled so much while drawing something.

edit: update! fallout has made some sprays:

    oh man, that one's pretty good!

    witch is going to be "it's so sad here without you, valentine"

    tank: "watch out valentine, my love hits like a ton of bricks" (or something along those lines)

    boomer: this one is hard. there are some pretty obvious choices "you make my heart go boom boom boom"
    or "you make my heart go boom boom splat"
    or "i get butterflies in my stomach when you're around, valentine"
    or... you know... something along the lines of puking? i dunno haha.

    hunter: i'd jump at the opportunity to be your valentine...or something like that.

    all of these are completely open to suggestions, so if you think of good tag lines, throw em at me!

    gears 2 is going to have marcus on the ground with a bloodmount on him, with cole headshotting the rider and a tag line of "you're a real team player, valentine" or something like that. kinda less lovey, more just... something you'd give your buddy for valentines day when you were in the third grade.

    prof layton is going to be a puzzle. :)

    that's it!

    A No More Heroes valentine would be amazing, but it wasn't made recently and you don't strike me as the type that plays Suda 51 games.

    nope i don't play that one.
    but hey, if you wanna make one and post it in here go for it!
    last year it became just sort of a valentine thread, and other people posted stuff too, so do it up!

    Alright, I gotta toss my hat in because I love your art and I think this year's L4D ones are gonna be awesome. Just--give it back once you're done.

    Okay, so let's start with Hunter: He pounces, leaps, growls...

    "You pounced on my heart and I won't let go."

    "I can't let you go, Valentine."



    Or you can have him leaping over a wall and grabbing Zoey, saying "My love for you has no bounds." Get it? Leaps and bounds? Boundaries? ... next.


    Witch! If you're doing her, that is:


    "You light up my world, Valentine," as she's got a molotov breaking on the ground beneath her.


    Tank! Gotta do the tank...


    "The sound I make grows when you're around."

    "Tank you so much for being my Valentine."


    You can also have him carrying a big huge car or rock saying as a caption, "I love you this much, Valentine."


    Boomer...

    Yeah, tougher one I guess. I actually like the 'you give me butterflies in my stomach' gag. You can probably pull that off. One other thing to consider...

    "Don't push me away, Valentine." as one of the Survivor's is meleeing the Boomer off them. That one might be good.


    I think that's about it. Best of luck with these. Let me know if you want any more ideas. I'll be here all week.

    Boomer:
    "I can't contain my love for you valentine!"
    He MUST be engorged and puking/exploding/leaking candy hearts with cute anime eyes and his mouth has to be smiling.

    Hunter:
    "I jump for joy when you're around valentine!"
    For this one he has to be flying through the air.
    "I give the best cuddles valentine!"
    Sqeezing someone to death. :P

    Francis:
    "I squeal like a girl when you're around Valentine!"
    Being helped up by Zoey, who is struggling to get him up.
    "I hate everything except you Valentine!"
    "I love you more than I love vests Valentine!"

    Bill:
    "I'd give you my cigarette Valentine!"
    Shy, closed, reserved expression about to remove the cigarette.

    Zoey:
    "Game over man! *snort* My heart belongs to you Valentine!"

    Louis:
    "I'd tuck in my shirt for you Valentine!

    Common Infected:
    "We love you more than pipebombs/car alarms Valentine!"
    Zombies turning away from either a pipebomb or car alarm lovestruck by the survivors running at them with arms out wide.

    I didn't have much fun playing any of the games you make these for. I don't like very many videogames though. I guess I'm not nerdy enough...

    But I definitely did give a bunch of the older ones out a year or two ago (I think it was this year).

    This year I don't know anyone who likes zombies or video games! Guh college.

    Yes yes I know you aren't doing survivor valentines but this one is perfect.

    Perhaps use it for the Horde. I don't know. I ain't no artist.
