First Manip

[Sobek]

Oh and this is what i started off with





Are they the skills you wanted from me silenced :P

In truth I like the black and white one better. =p

As for the manip though I don't really care for it. It doesn't really have any style to it. Just seems like a basic color balance layer, motion blur thing most people do. Though I'm sure its more than that. Maybe try adding to it a bit. Effects or something to make it different from the original by more than just color. Plus take off the typo it doesn't fit at all.

I mean for a first it isn't to bad. But take that idea and keep working with it and build upon it and it could be rather nice.

I agree with that.

By the way, that text isn't going to stop anybody from ripping it, which i doubt would happen anyway. Anybody that knows anything about photoshop would be able to take it off really easily . Water marking needs to be subtle and cover the entire image.

A manipulation is when you change the idea of the photo. Here the original idea is the same and all it looks like is, as anachrom said, basic color balance layer with a motion blur. Go to deviantart.com and browse under the manipulations and sort by the top favorites. That way you can see what photomanipulations really are and what they are at manip's best

Rippers are usually noobs who know **** about anything, that's usually the reason they rip. Because they wouldn't be able to make something like that and dont want anybody to know so they pretend they made the work.

And it is my first time to try and manip so go easy

At least silenced likes it lol
