Icequeen.

This is awefull but I tough id share anyway.
Was exercising some picture enhance techniques and was like lets make a siggy with it.
Well the enhance techniques look awesome but it does not look to well for a signature.
The dept is totaly loose and soo is the focal, but well.
Well anyways CnC are open like always :D

Skin harshening, in here I used some stuff to make her face look like she just walked trough a heavy snow storm.
I know the C4D looks awefull ;)

yea if you blended the c4d better it is possible to make it look better, but imo it wont look good no matter what you do to it, or who does it. C4Ds are supposed to be tiny additions that help a piece. Not the whole piece itself.

Nice try though

Tnx for the CnC guys!

Its not bad, at all, i really like what u are trying to do there ;)
tho pic looks bit lq , if u resize it that way, always press and hold shift while resizing, otherways it comes out very lq :S
about c4d , i think u should place them more around the face, not really on it, try them look round, so they blend on it, by erasing some with soft brush, then try add some gradient maps, to make colours mach with each other more, blend all the picture together :) and maybe try make new layer, put it on overlay, and with big 100 or 200 soft brush collour some lights with it, and creat lightening by >new layer > apply image >filters>render>Lightening.. change options u need :> and voila, sig will be outstanding!

hope my tips will be usefull :D nice art work there friend ;)

No I do not resize manualy, the picture was already LQ and then zoomed to fit the screen. Worked some blrus and sharps around to make it look more descent. I am glad yu see potential innit.
Tnx for the CnC ;)
