made today in 1 go(4hrs)

#283

It’s beautiful!

I think if you could make the fish fit in it’s environment a bit more, you’d have a really strong piece with this one.

#284

fit as in?can u explain a little

#285

Well, make it look more like this giant fish is floating over a sand desert.
It’s colors don’t seem to show that now.

Now the fish looks kinda cut and paste into a desert environment…

#286

hmmm… this was something i faced when i started this piece and im glad you pointed it out. do i blend it environment or do i make it stand out?i dont know if you have ever been to a desert city lik rajasthan or morroco. i’l explain my colour pallette…see in desert which is barren n dead, people live with really vivid colours to liven up things around them…bright reds, yellow, greens, blues. now imagine such colourful creature floating over your head… i think it’l make desert a paradise to liv in just because of these colourful creatures. Moreover its size and type does not give it a reason to hide so why not show your colours :smiley:

i do understand that i wasnt able to integrate it in desert too well(i made desert first time :smiley: ) and i hope to do it in a better way next time

#287

I really like the fish floating in the desert. The fish doesn’t need to blend into the environment it just needs to look as if it is in the environment. One thing you could try is to use a light colour from the sky as your highlight colour on the fish, instead of white. I love the windblown sand effect. :slight_smile:

#288

thanks for feedback aviva.Made some changes by adding a yellow white highlight and realised that the layer in which i made flying sand(i always put experiments in new layers :smiley: ) was behind the fish which also made it look cut paste so corrected that too…

more feedback appriciated :smiley:

#294

wow i didnt knew the guy wil look so cool after lighting up. I have to say experience is something u cant find in any software :slight_smile:

#295

hey im making this new piece so i was wondering if i could get some feedback on it.
basically the end result wil look like king of fighter style brawler with bg and all.

thanks!!

#296

The pose of the guy with the pistoleros looks unnatural and not attractive.
If you want him to be the main point of interest, make sure he is. He is already competing with the guy in the left and that one doesn’t even have detail yet.
There are perspective issues (the guy on the right ought to be bigger)
I’d say make at least 8 thumbs without adding to much detail.
If you don’t want to change his pose, avoid that mexican guy’s foot pointing to the corner of the image.

#297

I want it to look like a screenshot so well both of the guys are point of interest and yea i still have to start work on the guy on right.i’l change his foot position it was bothering me too.
thanks

Hey Killer, what happened to the Manga thread…:sad:

Have some great stuff here. I have not paid attention to your sketch thread. Sorry!:shrug:

#299

well i guess after all these years, its losing its audience. Though i dont want it getting locked up like workshop thread but we need to have some audience or people getting involved in it. its really really sad :frowning:

#300
