Samara, the ring

hey this is one of my fav styles, i dont do a whole lot like it tho. its kinda like rabies style. well i saw the ring 2 the other day and wanted to do a sig but couldnt find a good render. finally found one but the render sucks. teh bg is what i worked hard on so i made an animated version that stays on the bg for a while then fades in my logo and the render. i'll also post some still versions. i know i need to change the outer glow on my logo to white on the animation and i know i need a border.

PLEASE rate/comment!

nice job m8, although you might want to make the whole thing a lil darker,it seems kinda bright for grunge ^_^

3rd ones the best!

no, joke - 2nd is, but you should make like veins in her eye (or his lol)
the animation isnt too great and with the cracks over it it looks kind of strange, its good tho - maybe increase contrast and add a bit of whiteness to make it rabie style :D

btw i got the scratch brushes u used (not the crack ones tho)

I quite like it, but the eye looks too blended or something, and I'm not sure about the scratch-brushes either, maybe lower opacity or blend them better, looks too bright, but I love the brushes, actually, I'm in deep need of some scratchbrushes, so if you feel like sharing, PM me ^^ good job though, could need some improvement

ok, so i should just get rid of the render and the logo then its good? what do you guys think of the actual bg?

omg man i dont like that. its too damn creepy. great tho


--"whew"--

hahaha yea thats kinda the point. . .

Looks pretty nice, but try to lower the opacity for the scratches.
I usually do this:
Layer 1: render
Layer 2: black brushing
Layer 3: white brushing
Layer 4: black brushing
Layer 5: white brushing
Layer 6: text
Layer 7: border

Try it. :)

put the render at the back? but then it'd be like corered by the brushing :huh:

I often just take the eraser and remove some brushing over the render.

man i tryed again but now you can see my CRAP job on her eye. dangit i worked so long and it just looks HORRIBLE. man this has turned out to be a real failure :(

Nah, I think that one is very ok. :)
Try some more detailed brushing to the left and right though, and some black brushing on the white scratches.

you need to amke the eye less blurry, and then maybe put a mini render in the pupil - like a reflection
