I'm not a huge fan of abstract wallpapers but I figured I would make one. I'll probably make a smaller version of it, splash size or something. Anways this is my second large piece abstract I guess and I was going to simplistic and to the point.;). Though I might add more to it later, I'm not sure if I want to yet....C&C and all that. I hope everyone likes it. http://img280.echo.cx/img280/8997/ckwpcopy6ve.png

eeew pixie dust :( dont use pixie dust (the brushing you did). It seems a little dark, itd be nice if we could see more of whatever is around the pixie dust (ill just refer to it like that ;) ). You should do a little more brushing. Like have more "extensions" (you currently have 5) from that main source of light. But make the extensions shorter and less dense. I think you should have used a different brush, but thats just me. I've seen pixie dust too many times, thats all. Anyway, good work.

Yeah I probably should of used a different brush but I didn't have a custom one to do it and I was to lazy to make one at that moment =p. I was trying to make it look like the so called "extensions" ;) was holding onto the sides of the ground like area..I didn't really get that across though. Hence the really terrible name.
I'll see what I can do about the pixel dust though..maybe make it more of a glow instead or something, not sure yet. I'll see what I can do about it and see if its up to your standards. :lol:

just use default brushes :D people rarely seem to recognize that photoshop has a lot of really useful default brushes. check em out. especially the dry and wet media brushes.

Yeah thats pretty much the only thing I use. 95% of that was done with them and a really bad render I did. I've made some changes already and I think its looking alot better so far.
*edit*
I updated it.
I think the second is much better then the first. I didn't get rid of the pixel dust but I brushed over it with white to kind of make it seem like it was more connected to the center...anyways any better?

Looks a little better, it has a little more depth now it looks like. The only thing Ill stress now is that I think you should make the things less concentrated. Let them be a little messier and a bit more all over the place (if you do this, dont go too crazy).

Looks a little better, it has a little more depth now it looks like. But the thing I like about the first one is that the extensions arent so dense. Theyre more like light. In the second one theyre like solid objects. The thing Ill stress now is that I think you should make the things less concentrated. Let them be a little messier and a bit more all over the place (if you do this, dont go too crazy).
