The first one is a little, Uh sketchy? The stock kindof looks like pornography.

The second one the text needs to be fixed, but besides that I like how the render fits.

The third one is a little monotoned, and I think it could be a better quality stock.

ok. the first one used a erotic stock. so you´re right :D but i don´t think it´s too offensive.

yes the text is too simple on the second one. you know....once i have all finished i am sloppy in the end. the third one used a stock i shot myself. it wasn´t in a good lighting condition so the noise is visible. but i didn´t want to make it look blurry so i decided to leave the details untouched.

I think the text on the second one could use some modification, ie a bit of a grunge-smudge overlay. Other than that, it's quite good. However, the stock on that one is a bit strange (something like luminosity, it seems)... it doesn't look too good that way imo.

yes i get the point. i am quite happy with the look of the stock there, but the soft pink-shading should not have happened like that. that´s the problem with the color "red". you can´t light it without producing pink. :mad:
