Been getting back into making tags again lately, this is the most recent. Some other more recent ones: As always, I'd love to hear any constructive criticism that anyone would like to share. I've always been trying to get to be the best I can be, and as long as I am doing this, that goal will never change. So don't hold back, share what you feel. Tell me what I need to do to be better!
Very strong lighting, but it's a style that seems to work for these sigs. I like the one of the ice skater best. Seems to have best blending and also has the best focal point when looking to render/stock and origin of lighting. Well done
Thanks. I love strong lightning, I think I always have. The Scott Niedermayer one is my favorite too, maybe my favorite tag I've ever made. Even though there could be more effects in some places, I love it.
Don't use too much or you will lost the tone of the focal, you want people to see the focal not the light..
To be honest, lighting is one of the main things I've been trying to get better at for years... I'm terrible at it. Like I can sometimes put the light sources in the right places, but I still have trouble with knowing what colors to use, and when to use them, as well as what blending modes and all that stuff. It's aggravating sometimes. I look at the tag at the top of the screen (the GR headliner), and the lighting is perfect on it... Wish I could make lighting like that.
