C&C?

Never saved the original stock and cant be bothered to find it on lookbook.nu again but it was a girl on a chair, whatta you guys think? I love how it turned out and the fact that i did it with no c4d's. Its only a couple layers but its the first time i tried doing depth, and the lighting came out good too. Need ideas for text though, maybe i wont add it, its also the first time in awhile i didnt use a border. :love:

C&C? Thought? Tips?


Blurred more added a slight adjustment layer:


Added a c4d, text, unsharpened the render, took out the splatter, and added a small lens flare on the butterfly.





Also: whipped this up for a friend at HF, love how it turned out haha:

 

Is this your first time working with a stock? If so, not bad. First I would recommend blurring it some more and adding your OWN effects and background (well just experiment). It's kinda empty right now, and the thing at the top right looks kinda weird. Try smudging parts of it. Not bad, though.

 

2nd time but thanks. You mean blurring the background more or the girl? And when you saw the thing at the top right you mean the white splatter? And the stars actually are smudging haha, do you think filters on the BG are okay? I dont wanna edit it too too much. I'll take those into consideration, how is the focal though? I think i might have sharpened it too much now and idk how to get rid of that sharpening.

Thanks for the tips. :love:

 

V3:

 

I like it
but the text kinda looks almost like it was added in word lol
I'm not an amazing gfxer, but I see a feW tiny things that would improve this already great piece

like get those stars out lol,
I like the mask though for the splatter
also the ring thing is kinds "wack"

 

Nice, i like it .

 

Hmm, what about the text looks bad?
What do you reckon to replace the stars?
And you mean the lens flare on the pink? I like how it looks "wack" thats what i was going for. Thanks for the tips though.

Coolstorybro

 

Changed text and took out stars for now, ideas on what to add? Smudging? Another c4d? A brush?

 

weak flow and i don't like the high depth of field.

 

Yeah im still sketchy on which way to take the flow,and whatta you mean depth of field?

 

i dont think you should have blurred it, or its over-blurred. the focal compared to the BG just looks wrong.
you should work more with c4ds and fractals to give a more realistic effect than brushes.

overall its not blended too well and is lacking effects.
the summer text looks alright though, suits the brushes/smudge effect.
