yaff2 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 although its very simple i kind of like it. few things to fix, do: - blend the render a bit more around the red (looks like a dress?) - background is to 'bleh' it needs to be 'spiced up' - and the red border on the left, make just a bit thinner, and add a 1 pix red to the right 1980 Berlinetta with a 350, bored, mild cam, intake carb, headers, exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unoalexi Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hmm.. Well, I'm on the fence about this one. On one hand, you have a pretty good center picture(background matches render, ect.). On the other hand, this picture is framed by a rather... unattractive border. I would suggest you simply remove the top and bottom borders.. The text needs work too.. (Fonts good, but the placement is just boring) Final grade- Seven and a half kittens out of ten. Here be dragons ^ Dragon of the Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only part of the background that I'll spice up is really behind the render though. Hmm.. Well, I'm on the fence about this one.

I was wondering if it looked weird but I couldnt tell.

Chazimcgee Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I like the simplicity of it and the colours but the render doesnt seem defined enough maybe sharpen it up a bit?. As you were going for the simple look i guess you didnt want to blend it. add something like vector brushes to the bg? Maybe...

VjuliusT Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 As Chaz mentioned Sharpen, I think it would turn out pretty nice with that, I also suggest trying a high pass?(Overlay) Could look good. Pretty nice and basic signature in my opinion :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VjuliusT Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 1. Apply the image. 2. Filter > Other > high pass 3. Set the layer to overlay It looks good on some signatures, you might want to take a soft brush to erase some extreme parts when your done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unoalexi Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 May I make a suggestion for text placement? You could have the world "beauty" written on the red ribbon like this- B E A U T Y in white and then put "Thru" or whatevah in red along the side.. I don't know if it would look any better but it's worth a try methinks.. Here be dragons ^ Dragon of the Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it would look any better but it's worth a try methinks.. I'm with Uno on this one, the text doesn't look fantastic switching colours like that. I like the font, though. And I'd suggest taking the borders right off, or maybe just slimming them down a little. They get in the way of the rest of the picture and draw too much attention. Altogether, I really like it. Nicely minimalistic. Eight point five out of ten from me. Being immature is a part of being mature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VjuliusT Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Oh my bad Thru :P. That text setup Unoalexi suggest would be pretty awesome. Heres how it would look with a high pass : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jopie211 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Pretty nice, though I'd also suggest removing the top and bottom lines of the border. The chunky part on the left is quite good IMO. =P Maybe add some more different coloured vectors too. pixel avvy by me deviantART Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiny Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I don't know what to really say about this. I'm divided. I like it but i don't....if you get my vibe. I think the whole render isn't really to my likening. The whole signature tries to pull off two things at once. Being simple and being explosive. And it isn't working. I honestly don't really know what to say apart from the colours and contrast works for the sig, not against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jopie211 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 A lot better IMO, I really like the vector brushings you added. Colours are better too. :thumbup: pixel avvy by me deviantART Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason321 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Hey, Thru. You might remember me from LofG. I don't blame you if you don't though :P V2 is definitely a big improvement. No real CC from me. As Jopie said the vector brushes look very nice. And the colours look a lot better. Could do with a border and maybe a splatter brush somewhere?
