Wicked.

Maus652 · 02-06-2008, 09:31 PM

Thanks guys ^.^

Just did a simple one. Testing to see which brushes I downloaded were actually compatible.

Pretty pattern. Shame I ruined it with text ^.^

Maus652 · 04-06-2008, 01:01 PM

I've just followed Ayu's tut for some practice.

It erm. It's....different.

Would probably help if I got me some decent C4D Renders....But I never find any that I like.

I like the background....just. Don't feel my image is vivid enough.

Mr A · 04-06-2008, 01:11 PM

I like it.

~ I think maybe the busy-ness of the background is making the main image less vivid. Maybe trying to define her against the background more would solve that. For example bluring some brushes in black or white and place them behind her and try different blending options and see if that changes anything.

As for the C4D render, I always use the same 2 or 3 from Archangel Designs.

Remember that website? I'd get a link but my PC crashes everytime I open Firefox as of 10 am this morning and I have it in my favourites.

Can't find it using google. T_T

Maus652 · 04-06-2008, 01:17 PM

It does ring a bell.

And hm. I'll give that a go.

I tried to duplicate the main image and darken it, but it didn't work out. Also dropshadowed her a little. =|

edit: I think this is a bit better:

Mr A · 06-07-2008, 12:28 PM

I really like that.

I wish I could blend as well as you can.

[Btw - I found ArchAngel designs again. [Click 'ere] In the event you'd want to bookmark it for whatever reason. I mentioned it up there so I thought I should.

Maus652 · 06-07-2008, 12:37 PM

lol. I can't blend, I was just lucky how each image's plant-growth fitted

Stop being so modest

That's awesome blending and you know it!

Seamless

Great stuff.

Maus652 · 06-07-2008, 12:42 PM

>> I was telling the truth...

my blends are normally quite terrible, unless I can work it so all the pictures have the same background.

Maus652 · 06-07-2008, 01:39 PM

Just made a desktop, based on my signature. x]

I'm not happy with the left hand side of it, but that can't be helped unfortunately. Blending = weakness. but yeah.

I made it first in 1024*786, but cause my desktop is 1280*1024, I had to resize to this ridiculously large size

JET1 · 06-07-2008, 01:47 PM

wow your work is great, this is coming from graphic artist so believe me when i say you have real talent....are you considering a career in design??? if not you really should think about it, you have a really good eye for it.

Maus652 · 06-07-2008, 02:48 PM

I've done a lot of editing - some resizing was iffy, and the blending was stodgy, and this is my final piece.

thanks very much JET1, but I really don't think I'm that great at design

I'll stick to teaching/journalism

less pixilated in places, and I've redone some of the blending in the left side, and removed the middle pic.

Maus652 · 18-07-2008, 09:44 PM

latest.

Using it x]
