illumination

Took me about 6 hours to finish this. I was trying to gather my thoughts while making it. Comments appreciated.

its pretty good. . .try and blend the brushin over the render in a little bit more though, so you can see some of the render in the middle. . .also, brush a little bit outside of everything instead of there being so much "dead" space

Thx for the help m8. I'll see what I can do about those empty spots.

Just wow! I reall like it. all i can say is you should have made the 3D render in the back a little more random.

just as maso said, brush some more around the edges to fill 'er up. also try and make more of a centerpeice for this, kind of hard to tell whats going on when the center is all white. nice text, fits well, but maybe a de-saturated red would do well to fit the font with the rest better. maybe try working in more colours too, might end up looking a little nicer :) good work.

Thx DR and undertone. I'll see what I can do about the colors. The center of the piece is supposed to be bright and white because of the name of the piece.

Thanks for the other pointers though.

Eh, it's alright. Needs some work though. Too monotone, neeeds some 2d, and the text needs work. I saw this on Core as well, welcome there :).

I agree with illegal, too monotone. Very rough indeed on the background. The brushing isn't bad providing its not a brush pack someone else made. Keep working on it, your getting there.

Wait a min catalyst. That's brush pack isn't mine. I don't want to take the credit for someone else stuff. Sorry I didn't state that before. I have so many brushpacks that I forget which ones I used.
