Concept painting: Subspace Vehicle

[baoling]

I like the metal reflection, and the "under water world" feeling.

I was wondering how did you do the nice metal reflection? It looks really good.

Thanks for your reply!

This's my first try in Painter.
Ususally I do my paintings with Photoshop.

I realized the reflections with the glow brush in the FX tab.
I think this tool is quite useful, when you use a dark and slightly saturated color.

wow man it's really good especially the reflection part

i liked the metal reflection,too..i think it would look better if you wouldn't make the edges of the objects so blurry...that blurry feeling weakens the metallic effect i think

I think what others have said about the edges being a bit too soft is right. Also, be careful with those additive glow effects. They can look very cheesy and digital if you use them too heavily. It's a nice design though . . . I like the flow of the seams.

Thanks, balistic and zabid for your helpful comments!

I didn't took enough time to block out the mask properly, after i did the lighting, with the glow brush. Maybe I should pay a bit more attention to the contours of the object.
Indeed they should be sharper.

Flares look cheesy when overdone, that's absolutely right.
I think lighting is the fun part, when painting an image.

Not to less, not too much.
