JUST STARTED

[XGC EZE]

just started designing the day before yesterday so my skills are pretty non-existent but here are some of the things I have done so far. what do I need to work on? (i know everything but anything specific?)

plus all the ones below

Not bad! That afro Samurai one is pretty beast! So is the Halo one, but the middle looks bad.

I'd work more with smaller dimensions ( like 350 x 100 / 350 x 150 ), because bigger isn't always better. I like your smaller ones.

hey thanks for the comments, so where do you think i went wrong with the middle one? too many effects?

 

[XGC EZE]

heres another

A good bit better, with that newer one you've placed there.

That Deadpool one looks alright, but the left seems like not enough was done, the BG seems bad.

But back to that new middle one. Focal's a little off, try centering it a bit more!

ok cool cant complain as long as im improving. so are you saying the deadpool one needs more effects on the on it or like more smudging done around it?

Try playing with the background, with somethin'. Maybe add some brushes.

you have tremendous potential. make sure to experiment as possible and follow some tutorials. also, make sure when you resize your images (a shortcut is to click on the layer with the picture and hit CTRL+T) to hold the shift key to keep the image proportional. atleast that's what it looks like in the middle picture.

Also, when smudging, adding c4ds, and other effects, try to follow the "flow" of your stock or render. if you look at your halo tag in your signature, his left arm is out and to the right, so you would want to smudge or blur in that angle. it will give a great effect to your sig and make your focal really pop out.

You're on the right path, make the best of it.
