Chicken Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Yeah so I never brushed before... so I demanded that Keiph teach me... and he was all like "what?! me teach you... I was just about to ask you to teach me to be good at graphics!" .... but eventually he agreed and said I should try to brush this picture- http://www.painetworks.com/photos/do/do0679.JPG So I tried. And this is what I got: I think it's pretty good. The rock was really hard, and it's not so great, but I think overall it's okay. -Chicken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link91 Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 hey thats pretty good, the moutain is the part thats most off, but the rest looks pretty close. honestly, i think the coulds in ur picture look better then the clouds in the real picture. great job 4 a first i think. keep going, hope 2 see more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forsaken Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 At first glance, it looks pretty damn good, but when you compare it to the real pic, then you see some of the discrepancies and can start criticising it :P For your first go, that's pretty damn spiffy man, the mountain bit looks pretty dodgy though, and the clouds don't look like the ones in the picture? :P Looks like you have the same problem as i do when brushing, those jagged looking brushlines. \: .

SubDivi Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 For starting up it's pretty good. Though I don't agree with trying to replicate a scene rather than artistic interpretation, it's stil great for starters. Afterwards theres that whole practice make perfect stuff that annoys everybody because it's true. Meh. =p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keiphus Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 I'd be interested to know how you made the mountain, my deal pupil. :twisted: Because it looks too good; for you. :P jk jk jk Excellent job, I think you particularly (sp?) excelled on the shoreline and the clouds. I do think though, that the clouds are bit too 3d... there seems to almost be a shadow behind them, and it doesn't look all that realistic. I also don't like how dark the undershadow on them is, bit too gray for me... Maybe a lighter blue/white? For your first try, excellent job.

Despaxes Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 the mountain has a very bold outline at some parts...not too good on the mountain, and the clouds stand out too much emphasizing on the mountains bad outlining and brish work, and in my opinion the sea doesnt have good deatial for a first its pretty good thanks everyone for the sigs!

jabraulter Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 try dodging and burning certain edges of the water (if you did this in photoshop)....that way it will look more like a wavy sea and not so smooth. besides that, the beanch and foam is excellent and the mountain you did a suprisingly good job on. it sitll does look a bit flat, but if you bring out the major shadows, i think it should give it some volume. great job so far, i can see some great potential in you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
