Hey stang! Glad to see you here! I can't offer much help with the program, as I use a different one, though many of our artist use it. Please submit 5 images for us to look at.

Nice job Stang. try making them into sigs though as that is the majority of what we do. Canvas size 500x200 pixels or lower. Can't wait to see what you create

That's no problem. just make sure to keep the focal proportions the same and remember, you don't have to fit the entire focal into the canvas area

and yeah i get what your saying with not having to have the entire focal... i was trying really hard to keep his giant sythe for the coolness factor but a CnC on my own work says i should have nixed it.

No worries bro. I was in your spot 10 months ago when I first started. I use CS6 as well, so give me a shout if you need pointers on anything. One big thing that can help u that wasnt available when i applied is Skype. Using the share screen option, the person on the other end of te conversation can help you out by actually watching what you are doing. So if you want, Send me a PM with your Skype info that way we can go over things further when you need help or just to progress some of your weaker points

I am no amazing artist myself (still learning alot) your work has alot of potential, and there are plenty of experienced people on this team to learn from. Hope you make it and continue to progress.

okay buddy, let me give you some CnC on this.

First off....the lines of the focal are "sharp" and the background is "smooth" so they don't really fit, understand?

you need to pull texture from the focal and use in the background.

Also, being a black and white image, it'd be best to stick with a black and white background.

That image is very hard to work with, I tried a crack at it and it was going to take me way too long.

the text is incredibly hard to read and doesn't really flow with image.

Usually the focal should be the....focal....not the text. the text should be an "accent" that's why we usually make it smaller and beside the focal, in order to not draw a lot of attention to it.

from what It seems like, you are taking a premade background maybe just changing the color. I'd like to see you be more creative and make your own. I don't have any tutorials for PS, but I'm sure one of the other designers do! for now please make some more images so I can get a better Idea of where you are with your talents.


try these renders and stocks out. Let's see what you come up with!
