Trying to get back into PS

Like the title sais, ive been trying to get back into Photoshop for a few days now and this is what ive done so far:



[V1]


[V2]


C&C and advice is greatly appreciated.

EDIT: New one:



[V2 (more contrast)(And I fixed the edges)]

 

they look great I also am getting back into Photoshop been away from it for a few months now

 

Thanks for the reply, and I wish you luck

 

That Spiderman one has some "old school" techniques throughout, and is sending me down the handrail of a spiral staircase of nostalgia. Great work!

 

Seems im not the only one who misses the good ol' days

EDIT: Added a new one, didnt want to make another thread seeing as how this one is at the top of the page still.

 

The new one is nice, though the grey upon its left and ride edges are off putting.
And perhaps more contrast?

 

they look great

 

With what you said in mind I made this:



A bit more contrast but not alot.

And thanks Ravr.

EDIT: Oh, thats weird, the grey shouldnt be there in the first place.

 

Version two is much more superior to that of the original.

 

Your New One V2 is very eye-catching...... the contrast works well

 

Those are pretty good.

 

Thanks for the input guys!

 

new V2 is very nice

 

This one is awesome! Great job!
