Cola Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 Thanks man,it took a bit of time to do since im still learning the program so lots of trial and error to bring out the image i had in my head but im happy with it.Im eager to see what others think from a much more experienced artistic perspective than myself and who better than the people on the forums who use the program a lot.Thanks for your reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Yeah, it looks good. The only thing that might need extra work is the grey bars on the top and bottom.

[flip] Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hmm! It's pretty nice! I like the cola text... how'd you make all the little dots? Quote My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Not really sure, but I think this looks sexy: Flip: I think he used different bucket fill patterns within a selection.

[flip] Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Oh yeah... I forgot about that! :oops: Quote My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroTechniques Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 That's terrific for a first attempt. I agree with Down, though, the gray bars don't quite seem to fit. I would recommend changing the color, maybe to a lighter red, and drawing (in a new layer) a curvy white line. Make the line taper by using motion blur, and adjust the layer opacity down to where it looks good. Quote Photobucket Sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cola Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Thanks for all the comments guys,i actually like the gray bars on there but i am making them a bit different and will repost once im done,they seemed a bit out of place but not exactly needing to be removed so im tweaking it,and thanks for the reply jake lol after all you were my inspiration to start!

Cola Posted December 14, 2008 Author Share Posted December 14, 2008 I messed around with the bars and some shading and here is what i came up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Nice! The lighting is a bit off in the inner-corners (on the bars), but that's just part of the beveling.(?)

LFC4EVER Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I really like the concept in your current sig. Its awesome. Just needs some :AntiAliasingOn: :wink: Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cola Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 @oma and LFC4EVER Thank you very much for your comments,i'm really glad you like my work so far,i just started doing graphic art,well actually visual art in general in the beginning of December,Before that all my artistic abilities went to music but i felt like it was time to cross into visual arts. I really do appreciate the comments,they make me feel like i'm moving in the right direction art wise. As far as then antialiasing,i believe i did use it but i made the mistake of not creating the sig in a bigger size then sizing down after which i think would have made it look better. Again thanks for the comments,i'll be sure to update my gallery with finished projects as they are made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroTechniques Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I really like your current sig. Simple concept, but very well done. I especially like the 'sun ray' effect. As a matter of fact, I've been looking for a tutorial on how to create a 'sun ray' from scratch. I know how to enhance one, but from scratch is a different matter. Maybe, possibly, you could post one? And the figures in the sig could do with just a tiny bit more blending. Other than that, though, great job! Quote Photobucket Sucks!
