Lucci Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I'm new to the forums and to PDN. These took many attempts. Reading the tutorials were helpful. ^^ Whatchu guys think? -Above- I would say this is quite nice. 6/10 maybe? -Above- This is the same as the first one but with more contrast + took off the red eyes and scar. I'd say this is the best. -Below- This one took like an hour. T_T Gradient Mapping was extremely helpful. Text is horrible tho. -Above- This is just a smudge pic. I think ima use it for my avatar. What do you guys think? I appreciate suggestions but no flames. 8) -All images were upload from imageshack.- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hi Lucci, welcome to the forum. Nice start to your gallery. I like the first two, although I think the second one the best as well. It`s much cleaner and clearer . I would keep the red eyes though just to add a bit of colour to it as it seems a bit - bland? The sig is nice. I would do a similar background on the Av to match them up. Keep up the good work.

barbieq25 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Welcome! I agree with Goonfella's critique. Please don't disparage, downgrade, knock or say bad things about your own work. You can take your pick which one of these sayings suits you best. Just don't do it. If you think something is bad, then change it before you upload it. If I said to you, "Go look at my work. It is pretty bad, I know.", would you go look? Of course, you would but you'd be looking for something to criticise, something that is not right. You would not be approaching it with an open mind & making your own decision on the quality of the art. Lecture over... The third & fourth images are really quite good. I like the bright spots & you have the lighting correct. Placement of the text is also very good. Also just noticed the tie on the second sig is brown, so adding the colour to the eyes would be perfect for that reason. Hope to see a whole lot more from you. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

HELEN Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I couldn't have said it better what has already been suggested. I admire your work particularly for the reason that it looks very nice. Great techniques, too.
