SirHartlar Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Well I know that people here don't like others posting their first attempts when so often they aren't that good, so I have been reading a lot of tutorials and practising different skills such as smudging etc. I'm pleased with this and wanted to know what everyone else thought? I didn't put any text on it as I know that can be seen as a distraction, and I struggled to find things to fill the bottom left so I understand if that is a weak point. Thanks guys! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouchy Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hmm...That does look quite good SirHartlar. However, there is still work that needs to be done to it. If you can, try, but be very careful here, to add some effects in it. Maybe some textures, or more prominent smudging. Also, try to add a bit of depth in, and have some flow in there too. Looking good so far, KIU :) My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiny Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I really love that. Can I have it as my signature? Or the .psd to collab on it? I love the smudging. The flow you created is amazing, and your colour scheme is good. This is definitely the best I've seen of a first attempt. Work on adding some more textures, and filling it out with effects.

SirHartlar Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Good/bad? Same sort of style as the other one but I tried to add more C4DS as suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiny Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Good/bad? Same sort of style as the other one but I tried to add more C4DS as suggested. The flow is weaker, and the colour scheme isn't as strong. The contrast could be toned down. It is really quite good, even more effects is better!

Laxaria Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 My biggest problem with the first one is that, the face is looking --->, while the camera is looking <---- This conflict in flow gets very confusing. You might want to make the face a little brighter to draw more attention to that, cause now when they are both more or less bright, looking at both at the same time makes my eyes go <---->, which is not that good. deviantArt | A book without a cover | My poems | My SigsI'm an artist of words.

SirHartlar Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Sorry if all the new pieces are annoying, I'm getting into this and I want to know whether I'm actually making progress or not. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxaria Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Improvement is a general curve upwards, not a curve that is smooth, but rather a best fit. In other words, in the midst of improving, you might get worse. Anyways, I suggest tutorials. Not that you aint good, but they teach a lot and are quite helpful. deviantArt | A book without a cover | My poems | My SigsI'm an artist of words.
