Green and Light in the Dark

[DR809]

The first one I made for SOTW now that voting is up I'd like to get some opinions on this. The second one I just finished and I would like some criticism towards this one. So opinions?



V2

Im not to fond of the first. I think the render is to big for the size of the sig. But the colors and effects are fine.

The second one is much better. I like the placement of the sig. the effects are good but could be a bit smoother (some filters, smudging or topaz clean could help smooth it out).

The lighting on the left of the sig doesnt look natural, but you have placed it correctly. To work with that natural feel try doing an adjustment layer, gradient map, b/w. Set it to luminosity. Erase overdone parts (not the lighting though).

good work man, kiu

Alright I took your advice kritez and that lighting was bothering me from the get go. I added topaz clean and the b/w gradient on luminosity. I posted up the v2

........it was dropping down too fast.

[iB :3]

you are based too much on topaz,
try to stop using it,
nice signs,
the first one is very nice,
the colors are good and the light is nice,
but the 2nd one is just not that good of yours,
the render isnt that good,
and the colors are not that good,
good luck

lol i barely use topaz o.o.

1st one is good, nothing i can personally think of to improve it

2nd one needs work on focal, idk if i should be looking at the guys face or the staff thing in his hand OR the large amount of light u have going off to the left at the top, effects are nice, depth is good, other than the focal issue its nice
