L0SS Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 God, that words annoys me. This was a focus on depth and lighting more than anything else, which is why the colouration might not be spot on. I should probably try placing a light source under the focal one of these days. I re-used the planets because they're easy to work with, at this stage. Sorry for my constant posting, I feel like I'm spamming the thread out. Quick, someone else post something so I don't look so bad! CnC appreciated, thanks.

Night Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Definitely your best yet, on one hand the lighting placement is a bit too far from the focal, but it works so well with the depth that I don't mind as much. Watch the quality though, it's a tad choppy in some areas and far too blurry in others. Keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for quality, I think I over sharpened the focal area, and over blurred the planets at the other side. I think I'll work on those finishing touches/general quality with my next one. I'm hoping to get a little more advanced/adventurous with my lighting, now that my whole depth thing seems to be improving. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madsen Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Agree with Batman, your best by far for now. Glad to see you've taken critique and advice to heart; The tags very nice and appeals at a glance; You're losing out on some quality by forcing depth and lightning too much. All in all, a good tag with very minor faults, KIU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in all, a good tag with very minor faults, KIU Cheers. Hopefully I can now start spending more time and effort going over the smaller details of my tags, and iron out some of the issues. I still need to work on lighting, so I'm going to keep playing around with it a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twenty-five Zero Oh-oh Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Not bad. Next time though, try not to just to use too much white soft brush for lighting. It tends to make the colors look fake and uh washed/unsaturated or something. Try brushing more saturated colors on dodge, addition, soft light etc. Also, it's interesting to experiment with soft brushing on a completely black layer on addition/dodge/lighten.
