Mixed Media Project

[Crymsyn]

This is a mixed media project I did for an art class.

The dragon was hand drawn in pencil, colored with pastel pencils. The background and tube were PS'd.




Any constructive criticism would be helpful.

to be honest, i dont think you should have put the tube in. you should have left the dragon on it's own...

what year are you in at school? cos in the final year (11 in england) that mixed media is just classed as a pencil coloured piece... our mixed media includes anything we can get our hands on ^_^

what did yo do, scan the dragon?

Anyways i like it .. the dragon , and the rest. But i don't think it looks good together. The dragon looks to real, and cartoony whereas the rest is very hi-tec. And i don't really like the top of the tube, try less shineyness, and a light grey border around the shapes maybe. Gj though^.^

The dragon dosn't really fit wit the theme, try to use something else instead of the dragon, maybe a star wars character..............lol.

Lol. The dragon makes it like a joke. You might wanna find a real dragon to suffocate in a plastic tube.

the fact that the dragon doesnt fit the feel of the rest of the work not withstanding....you might try placeing 4 white boxes about 3/4 up the tube, set them a a really low opacity >25% probably. and useing the Liquify Filter and the bloat tool to expand it out....should make the boxes look like a reflection on the glass....

lemme dig up a pic from a tut i found with this effect.

Here we go:


see how it looks kinda like a window reflection?

an effect like that would really make your tube look awsome.

just my 2 cents.
