Crimson Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 It looks kind of....flat, like a button. I think it's the white highlight in the very center. Also, I think you should make the shadow in the bottom right corner larger.

janettsue Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Kemaru I think it just needs a drop shadow. When I got done with this I thought maybe I had drawn the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters. Maybe because I gave him arms. I still like him. Quote "One can't complain. I have my friends.

PyroTechniques Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Wow! Nice snowman, Janettsue! I love the buttons. This is sort of like practice for a larger, more complex piece I'm planning: Tell me if/how you think it could be improved. Quote Photobucket Sucks!

TopHATslash Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 @Janettsue: I love the ribbon :3 Your background seems a little too busy, though. Maybe something less disturbing? Great work, I really admire your work, it stands out I've been seing a lot of orbs around lately, so I decided to try creating one myself. I think I made a pretty decent job. Constructive criticism is welcome. Like I said before, the inside portion looks great but the edges seem 2D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyroTechniques Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Essentially, I just used Ash's Gemstones V2 tut and put it onto the star shape, did some layers/blending modes, and added highlights. Wow, that makes it sound ridiculously easy. :oops: Quote Photobucket Sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 oh no not easy, its a wonderful adaptation of a great tut by ASH. I hadn't even thought of that I actually thought you had used erode. very smart looking. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyroTechniques Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Ok, here's the end product (click for larger image): I have a 1280X800 version, but Photobucket won't allow anything that large, for whatever reason. Not quite sure what to call it yet, any ideas? Quote Photobucket Sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janettsue Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 PyroTechniques, It is Pyro Techno Candy. Love it! I am sure you have all done something and when you got done you wished you had done this or that different but you spent too many hours on it to have the heart to start over. That is how I feel about this. I guess that is what they call learning. Still it is not a bad piece so I will post it here. I like how the chimney looks. I thought about using the render bricks effect but I didn't want it to look that perfect, organized...whatever. Uniform! Quote "One can't complain. I have my friends.

Down Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 CC would be to: clean up the edges & side of the pick guard. Make the wammy bar connection more detailed and change the width of the neck and keep the strings straight. Overall gooood work, Oh, add some neck inlays too.
