Zieon Eslador Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Critique- Falken, the centered green dot and the radial flares around the sun are too opaque. Also, blur the semicircle that is covering the top middle a bit. The rest of the lens flare could be a bit more transparent, but it looks fine as is. If you're going for complete realism, the moon shouldn't be there. If it's between you and the sun, how does it reflect the sun's light? :wink: The image is awesome though, and even if you don't change the things I pointed out, it looks great. The background is yours as well? Quote (Click top half for DeviantArt gallery) (Click bottom half for Paint.NET gallery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Yes I love that lens flare pic. I would have fewer `spikes' on the flare though. Here is my latest spacescape. A Galileo Tribute pic. All PDN except for Galileo. I have to thank Welshy for the wood texture which was the base for Jupiter. :wink: Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0(-.-)0 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Thats a test of my new texture method. I wish I had a starfield to go with it but I fail at starfields. Also, Goonfella, that rules! I like the moon's shadow on Jupiter. Good use of the wood texture. Quote - Any thoughts? - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Roadkill Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 @ Goonfella, Wow ! Amazing image. Jupiter looks just like Jupiter ! The moons are a nice touch. Beautiful image once again. @ 0(-.-)0, Very nice image. The atmosphere is very well done. The planet is a little too sharp looking. It would look a little softer through an atmosphere. Maybe add some cloud formations as well. Very light, soft and transparent.

Beautiful Oma ! I looked through the screen shots in your gallery and was amazed to see how the image came together. This is one of the things we have all been talking about, I hope the younger artists on here will take the time to learn from this valuable lesson. Simply amazing, and thanks for sharing so much of the details of how you created it.

Kemaru Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 @Goonfella: Wow, that is some real-looking Jupiter! Nice deer there, oma I'm still working on some stuff, like the shadow behind frequency switch (?), and the central part of that speaker.

007 Nab Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 That looks great Kemaru -- though I think the speaker itself could use some improvements. To me it seems it's circular, even though it ought to be more elliptical because of the perspective. So I would stretch it slightly horizontally. Also, its ring of light ought to be rotated about 20 degrees clockwise I think -- according to the wood the main lightsource is coming from the top right, not the top middle. I was also just gonna say you ought to add more things to the radio itself, but it looks like you're already working on that Other than that it looks awesome man -- very cool concept!

Bjarni Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Brilliant pieces Goonfella, monkey face, oma and Kemura. I tried to make something weird lately, idea was fun, the outcome is not so good: Painting Apples Any tips/advice to make it better? Quote Bye Bye PDN!

Possum Roadkill Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 @ Kemaru, Very nice image. I just have one suggestion, the knob below the arrow on the dial, shouldn't the lighter line on the knob be more aligned with the red arrow in the dial? I also agree with the shape of the speaker due to the perspective. Believe me, I have had my issues with perspective, ask Yellowman. He really helped me a lot. Really nice wood texture, great concept. Very very cool ! @ Bjarni, I don't know, I think it turned out really well. Maybe you could adjust the apple layer with curves more to your liking. Really great idea, loads of imagination ! Quote My Gallery SAC, WOTW and Photo Manip Competition Host To visit the Comps click HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heat Stroke Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 @Bjarni: I think it would be cool if you added a brush stroke of color onto the apple. But it's cool the way you have it anyway.

yellowman Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 @Kemaru, nice radio, I like the mesh of the speaker @Bjarni, very nice, the brush is awesome did you do that on Paint.net?

oma Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Chris that's a nice image, are you planning on using it as a sig? I would if I were you. here is my play around of another image I've in the works. thumb here larger version in my gallery pg 80 or I've also placed a copy on my DA.

Bjarni Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Nice one Oma, as I said in your gallery Here is one I just finished: It's my first try at jewelry Quote Bye Bye PDN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Bjarni those look like very nice pieces of jewelry. one thing you might try now is to take one of them and semi follow Helen's tut viewtopic.php?f=31&t=31064 using a oval shape to see if you can get some shine and depth. just use the tut as a guideline to how she did the white outline and blurs etc. well I've done the dragon as far as I can take it. He will be worked into the Myth and Magic image as next step. see full size on pg 81 of my gallery. Includeds wip shots and a diversion image of this dragon on pg 80. 100% paint.net no renders. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
