I just dont like the smudging on his left arm (>>)[/b][/quote] Very nice, some more efx would be nice, and the smudgings not very subtle.
Remove the scan lines, or place them in only a few spots just so it adds a subtle effect Improve text or remove it, for now it looks slapped on
Thanks both of you, I've never actualy been good with text at all...like its definatley been my downfall..Got any tips? Lol
Eew scan lines. But aside from that.. the sig lacks depth, a focus point, color differentiation, and lighting effects, and i agree with AP that the text looks slapped on. Not trying to come off as a douche, just offering some constructive criticism. I know you're used to the 2005-esque styles,so it'll take practice. Just trying to help out EDIT: As for text tips, i'd suggest adding a title of some kind. It's hard to be creative with a single line of text, whereas with multiple lines you can alter placement.
Im completely open to constructive criticism. And yea I'm used to the old days, definatly not as good as the people these days.
Edited that last post with a text tip, as well. Text blending often helps, too.. by putting the text below a few layers (gradient maps, color balance, perhaps a smudge layer or two), it looks like it belongs there. I used to hate text, loving it in my recent work though. It adds that extra bit of awesome
This is quite a bland tag and is really lacking coloring and composition. The smudging is exactly the same throughout the tag, try using different brushes and sizes.
its good i think if you took the scanlines off the render and fixed the text it would be better also try and add depth
not bad but get rid off scanlines and text nice colours but smudging is a little boring TiP: don't use settings
Round brush smudge and scanlines. That's not a new style. Pretty good. I like scanlines if used properly.
