Bleach

I'm sick of this, no matter what I cannot get past novice, I'm lucky if I ever get to high novice. I'm stuck on solid novice like this sig. Such a total piss off.

Worst part is, IDK how to even improve.

I really like the sig
maybe you need to work a bit on
the depth
but beside that very nice sig

that could be a nice futur tut :)

^^
Forgot to sharpen.

bro just download some psds and look at a few tuts.
Will help you get some nice ideas and techniques
Will definitely help you improve

depth is fine...its the blending...

Dept and lighting need to be improved here..
Other than that it's a nice tag :)

this one


it looks like the render is floating

Depth, lighting and blending.

These all help each other and are based of each other.

I suggest working with an easier render that has a better defined lightsource to play with.
Adjustment layers can also be your best friend when it comes to blending such as gradient maps, exposure, levels, curves etc.
Burn and dodge can also help with the above.

To me right now, it might be my screen but some parts of the render are very pixely, which can totally destroy the overall tag.

You are off to a good start here, just needs a few more tiny adjustments and you will be fine.

Like the above said, .psd's and tutorials can also really help out with these situations and you can also learn new things.

Wish you best of luck and can't wait to see what improvement you WILL make. :)
