    Did a killer manip on a new sig. Just want some C&C please.

    v1.

    v2.
    made the warrior the focal, with some added effects and lighting.

    v3. Took some of the sharpen off of the focal, and toned it down just a tiny bit. Also, unblurred the deamon in the background just a bit, to make it more noticable, without confusing it with the focal. I think I made this manip into a pretty cool 3 dimensional tag. Final......

    It's not bad.
    I like the picture. :D
    The only problem I have with it is the
    focul is hard cause everything seems to be on
    the same "attention level", you get me?

    Like, it doesn't look like anything is blurred
    or sharpened to make a good focul. Plus, there's
    two different characters so meh eyes are bouncin'
    around all over the tag.

    Still looks good though. ;)

    Hoppy pretty much described exactly how I see this tag. With no real strong focal point it's a bit confusing and leaves your eyes bouncing all around. I like what you were doing with it though. Also, try smiling once in a while, your avatar is about to beat you up :P

    Yeah, I would say blur the background a bit, and create some depth. It looks amazing for a manip though.

    Ya I get ya. I couldnt decide if I wanted to make the demon the focal, or the warrior. I'll change it in a bit, and make her the focal. Thanks for the input. ;)

    it confuses me, but i think we a few touches up you could really have something.

    Well, they're both on power points, however, it's mainly that the background stands out too much.

    Created a second version. Made the warrior the focal point of the sig. More C&C please. I want this tag to really stand out. :tongue:

    I like the lighting effect, though I feel as if the monster should be blurred less, and fix a bit of the oversharpened places. Make the monster -------apparent, but not as much as the warrior.

    Very nice work on the third, i do however find the resolution a problem, im not sure but it just seems to be poor quality.

    Other than that you were right about a killer manip i cannot really give u any advice on top of the improvements u have already made.

    The quality of the stock is pretty good. I think I just did a little too much to it, and ruined the quality of it with the manip. Finished it late last night, so I was tired....lol. Here's the stock I used....

    And I appreciate the criticism that everyone provided. It helped me out alot. Instead of negative remarks. You really gave me some good feedback, and helped me really improve the work that I did. That's what it's all about right? ;)
