In the new you used an effect on the rnderer in the focal point, get rid of it (the ear)
also could use more depth, sharpen effects and blur background, darken lighten, you'll get it.
flow is good!


Also used to have a great site called gfxjunk.com, dnno what happened to that, was great photoshop site q.q


ed: maybe i'll make soemthing myself again, stay tuuuned

thx, its me failing at creating depth :P hopefully ill get better
25 months ago
+0 thumbs
Personally to achieve depth I heavy blur it and erase pretty much everything, then do a normal blur to create depth. I leave the mid stages as they are, and sharpen the very highlights. After that, dodge and burn tool near the light source to create some shadows and done. :) That's just me though.

The colors steals alot of attention, the purpule is very dominating, dno if it should be edited, dont change direction, perfect flow imo. are those black blurred parts there added or is it in the stock?

the one with the girl looks nice, looks like it could be used as a flyer type thing for a club to promote a night or something, at least thats how i could see it being used :-] company i used to work for had similar types of designs for all their promotions :] nice stuff!

Very good work indeed, try to work on the depth though. Seems like you're sharpening the wrong things and therefor not creating any real depth.

Take the third one for example.


As you see I've put red circles around some of the brushes there, I forgot to put that red circle on the left hand though sorry :(
It would create ALOT of depth by simply erasing most of them, I'm not saying erase all of them, leave some behind and try blurring them just a bit.

Hope it helps.

Loving the over-edited stuff here mate (no sarcasm btw :))
I'm into interactive media and I have to cover graphic design like this, good stuff.
CBA to really critise since you're heading in the right path with your choice of colours and stuff...
Also your visual awareness is pretty good.
So even though most of these cunts on this site have no idea why certain colours are used in certain images, dont take any bad critism :)

there is some nice work here and would like to see some.
some criticism:
the first one is not to my particulair taste as it is just smudged the stock with different bushed (unless theres another way to create that look that im unsure of) but i did the like what you did to the stock in the top few layers and the lighting is also v. good.
the second one is realy nice i just dont like what you did to the hairline around the forhead and ear (like some grainy effect) but apart from that perfect xD.
third one again is not realy my taste but the text is good and i think makes the piece lol.
fourth is by far the best everything is good. It has good flow and the colors actually match but the 1 pixel border thing (forgot whats its called :/) around the TEXT effect takes away from it fitting in the picture. The background is done well i would like to see the stock of the background to see what you changed xD.

long i know and i am by no means an expert lol just trying to give some advice show moarrrrr please

still, you can reply 20 times or so to a topic post
you can reply infinite amount of times on a reply, and you can even reply on a reply's reply (that makes sense..)
meaning you have over9000 signatures to be loaded only for 1 comment page.

Photoshop has more options than AE...
25 months ago
+0 thumbs
I know, but i cba to learn the program since most things are similar, yet so different.
25 months ago
+0 thumbs
that actually depends.. it is a lot more comfortable to colorcorrect/DOF in AE than photoshop, mainly because you could add effects like lens blur to an adjustment layer.
25 months ago

its nice, thing is AE is more for effects and photoshop is just genral photoeddititing

Looks good but could use a sharpen
newlayer - apply image - filet - sharpen, and erase verything but the render.
+like your text, I myself have always been bad with texts >.>

Will upload some of mien tommorw in a new tread unless you give me permission to hijack urs :P
