Effects are straight on. The stock looks really LQ though. Not good. Maybe a bit too dark on the left side as well. Make sure you don't get carried away when doing contrast. Overall, it's not bad. But I think it's his sword and the effects on it that make it appealing. Keep it up
Yeah I usually get carried away and make everything bright and draw attention away from the focal, so I'm trying to cut back Love your comments hoplite, you've given me good critique afew times that has helped me improve.
Hmm.... All those stocks look really LQ to me. I like the effects, but I'd erase some of that C4d from his hair. Fade it a little sooner than it is now and it'd look a lot better. Nice blurring, but maybe un-blur a few of the parts just a little that are nearer to the focul. Not bad. Thanks for the compliment Asyd, I appreciate.
I was trying to perceive motion, the part under him there is his sword, kinda like a moment frozen in the eye of the storm, but thanks for your advice, I'll take this into mind when I make my next tag.
No! I was talking about the second one. lol The motion effect you pulled off. That looks tight on the first one. lol I was just saying in the second one the c4d looks odd cause it's all up in his hair.
