How can I make it better? ^_^

 

adding some effects would help a bit, from i can tell you've added a drop shadow, scanlines, a border, and it also looks like you've duped the image and overlayed it. Simple imo, try adding some c4d's and maybe sharpening and bluring some of it to give it some more depth. Also, on the left side, it looks like you've spliced the picture, there is a line that clearly shows its been done.


Edit:: now that i've looked at it a bit more after my post, I noticed how much you did change on the left side. Good job doing that overall, accept that one line I mentioned above. It also fades out pretty quickly on the left hedge there, might wana make that a bit more gradual for a more realistic look.

 

What's a c4d?

You're absolutely correct. I'm surprised I missed that.
/goes to work

EDIT:

​

Any better?

 

Well, in all honesty, no. You over blured the part I was talking about, and the line is still there. You also goffed up the girls leg somewhere along the way. Thought I would point that out to.

Here Ill show you what I think is wrong with it. Fix it and you have a nice cleanly manipulated picture.

 

Damn, that's some nice photomanip. I didn't even realize the left side was manipulated at first.

The only part that bothers me is her right leg (your left), and the top left side where the branches repeat themselves conspicuously. Maybe if you just barely smudged it a bit, it would scramble them up enough to break the pattern.

Awesome job, effects might do you some good, or some color editing, but it's still a good manip. KIU!

 

I dont know what you could change it looks 10x better than the orginal man props!

 

Oooh, I see what you mean. :noworry: Thanks a lot for your help.

How does this look?

Fixed!

Thanks a lot. What effects would you suggest adding?

^_^

 

Mmm, you could add really anything, bokeh might look good, geometric designs, maybe something surreal-- a C4D, or a ribbon of some sort..

By the way, I like what you did with this last version you posted. It looks like a photograph haha

 

That can't qualify as a signature, sorry. Although, it is somewhat of a good manip.
