blooper101 0 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Vern, do you know what I don't like about your image? They are too sharp, I believe. For exemple, look at the outline of the letters. Or that sort of pattern in the background. I assume you used layers for those, if not, next time, do so, and use the eather plug-in. And for the text, outline object with different colors should be used. If you used Sine waves to distort the text, remember to use anti-aliasation. Just my two cents. @T_Lh Keep the cup! However, I think you should color the face. Or the most important part of the picture, if it's not the face. Link to post Share on other sites
madhatterl7 0 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 I know it is not the best but thats why I posed it. I would like somebody to give me some tips on what I can do to make it better and tell me what tools they would use. I am new here so that would help a lot. Madhatter's Deviant account.

MattBlackLamb 3 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 If you put _th before the image name in the url it'll turn it into a thumbnail Really nice work I like it, the only criticism is that you can see where the fractal ends on the sides. That aside it is very nice dA Son, someday you will make a girl happy for a short period of time. Then she'll leave you & be with men that are ten times better than you can imagine.

blooper101 0 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 After a headache and some work, I managed to make houndstooth pattern. Rather proud of it, I think it's seemless (sp?). Feel free to use it. With credits, of course :wink: Link to post Share on other sites

blooper101 0 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 @janettsue: The car needs feathering. As I see you tried to feather it, but it didn't work like it should have, I suggest you cut it out, select the car color as primary, and use Outline Object plug-in with maximum Softness, and 1 width. Or 2 width, I'm not sure. @Drakaan, nice work. Link to post Share on other sites

The_Lionhearted 4 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 @FrEaK: Take off, eh! @Ash: I suppose if I get crazy enough, I'll attempt to clone stamp...it's one of those tools where I'm not that good at it and...um...it scares me. But it would be good practice... @Bob: I considered doing something with that word (zoom blur, color change) but decided against it because imho it would detract from the picture as a whole. I'll give it a shot anyway to see what happens! Thanks all! My Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
