The Journey Begins Challenge (2D) Entry: Theresa Ryan

#661

this one looks great so far, my only crit is this. STEP ON THE GAS! :wip: :wip:

#662

I’ve been working on it today…it looks rather different now. I think I’ll be finished in a few hours!

Hang around for the finale. :stuck_out_tongue:

Britta: Danke schon fur die oberpaint. Ich werde manchmal in meinem Bild benutzen. Danke wieder!

#663

What do you think? Am I done?

#664

I think it could use a bit more work :slight_smile:
Especially the three figures standing on the right with their backs towards the viewer.
They’re a bit too dark and maybe need some definition. Maybe you could give one of them a lighter cloak/hood and a bit more detail in the hair.
It gets a bit blurry towards the building, define the shape a bit more towards the top of the stairs. The people are blurry too, but I think that’s kinda cool. Like real people turning into ghosts the further they go up the stairs.

#665

What Art2 says should finish it off nicely.

Well done Theresa, it’s great to see you’re journey is nearly finished.

#666

Haha, yeah, I guess I got a little too excited a little too early? I’ll take your suggestions Marlon… hrph, more work to do (I kinda knew I did, but I wanted to finish, dammit!)

#667

update.

#668

Haha, just realised that the last update was post no. 666. :argh:

Does this mean I’ll get blasted down with damnation?

#669

Great update Theresa!

What’s that round thing in the foreground next to the 3rd girl btw?

#670

It’s the backpack of the man in front of her. Is it too vague?

Finalizing crits much welcomed…!!

#671

I’m talking about that yellowish round thing. Is it also a backpack?

#672

Well, sort of. It was meant to be a thing they were carrying….

So…no crits? I’ll define their clothes a little more, maybe make the mysterious thing a little less mysterious and I think I may be done.

#673

yay details, nice pic, looks like them old paintings

.

#674

Very nice Theresa… the only thing that bothers me is the highlight on Catleen’s forhead (the girl 3rd from left). It’s very bright compared to the others and I think your light sources is behind her.

I know you don’t want to hear that but it’s only a little thing.

Well done anyway, Theresa, it’s a lovely piece.

Demystified a few objects and tidied up some loose ends. I think I might be done now!

EDIT: I varied the colours of the clothing a bit. Hooray for photoshop!

#676

I’d say your done! What resolution does the 2d image have to be? Btw I finally added clouds to my scene.

#677

It has turned out beautifully Theresa and what a journey!:thumbsup: It looks finished to me too but that is your decision.:slight_smile: Best of luck to you!

#678

Heya Theresa! Now that you are nearly finished, you can experiment with the brightness and contrast, hue and saturation! give it a try! Especially the brightness and contrast part! See what you can come up with. Remember to make a duplicate of the file for you to experiment with, and not on your original!

Finally you are almost done!

#679

The drama is absolute! It’s weird what a difference bumping up the contrast makes. I don’t want to OD on the contrast, so I’ll tweak it a lot more.

EDIT: Some of the colors (specially on the people in the front!) are far too contrasty- i’ll bump it down.

Hi,
Best of luck till the end.
