Hello again @everyone 😍
This is my day 2 - I captured a simple ballpoint scribble from my diary and transferred it to Photoshop where I colored it in πŸ™‚ loved this little excursion into illustration!

@magic hedge Very nice work, really liking that storybook style this has! The blue shadows on the snow look great.

#

@unreal trench Really liking that cool hazy look a lot of these images have. It gets you some really nice neutral blues and greens. Color palette looks solid!

Thank you @bleak fossil I will try adding in a few more mountains in the background!

@chrome hollow Mood board is looking good, some cool textures going on too! Green and yellow add a nice pop of color to the rest of the color palette, nice work!

#

@karmic basalt Very cool! I like the style of the face you drew, hair looks really nice. Cool idea!
@forest aspen Wow, nice job, this is really clean! Really cool designs too. Were some of the designs taken from Adobe Capture? Really cool stuff!

@crimson veldt This is looking good! I could totally see this being used to create a repeating pattern texture.

#

@blissful wolf Very nice! The style and colors really help support the meditation theme. The simple shapes and calming blues really add to that feeling. The warm browns add a nice contrast too. Nice work with the sense of depth you got as well.

#

@topaz raven Ooh, nice work, makes me think of Halloween a little. Really liking that mirrored shadow from the cat. It could be cool to add a little scattered yellow light in the snow outside leading up to the doorway, kind of like you often see light reflected in rippled water, if that makes sense. Either way, cool stuff!

PsDCC2 Adobe Capture - Suffice it to say I am still clueless on Adobe Capture. I photographed my lamp, drew my initials on with the phone stylus, sent it to my library then painted it using the polygonal lasso tool to select parts, created new layers and used blending modes, blending options, blend if and just kind of played with photoshop.

@candid chasm The mood board is looking good! I like how a lot of these images have both a strong graphic read as well as a bold color balanced by a more neutral color. Gives the whole mood board an interesting feel. Nice work!

#

@naive mesa Nice, really cool idea. Digging that graphic almost screen printed look. Could be cool to see a lighter tone worked into the bottom shape like we see on the top purple shape. Might give it a slightly clearer read. Really liking that texture!

#

@crude lichen Well done, very seamless edit! The image with the removed object looks great. Though is this perhaps a Day 2 challenge from a previous Photoshop DCC?

#

@candid chasm Aw, Challenge 2 is looking great! I love seeing these two techniques put together. Well done, there's a lot of personality in this!
@young karma Nice work, Adobe Capture used for the figure in the middle? Some really cool variety in texture in this image. I like how you have a bit of variety in size/visual hierarchy between the 3 elements, but I think you could push that even further by increasing the size of the man/hand in the middle which would also help make it a stronger focal point. Good job!

@wispy compass Aw really cool! Team work, hah. These designs are great. Maybe the flowers could even be a bit brighter to separate them more from the background? Cool colors either way, nice work :D
@trail rose Very nice, really liking those clean graphic shapes and lines, looks great! The pop of color is a great touch that adds a lot of interest too. It's a small detail, but maybe making the birds get slightly smaller as they move up might help add a little depth?

@tulip crow totally agree... only I have no idea how to change that yet πŸ˜‚ ...until I learn how to do that, I guess I will just pretend that the rocks are being light painted by the photographer to account for the light source being on the opposite

@young karma did your original image have the low lying clouds, or did you add them? During challenge #2 I decided I ultimately wanted something like this in my final composition, but wasn’t sure I would be able to figure out how to add them.

@edgy idol No it wasn't at the original image, i took the background image and i masked it leaving only the clounds were i wanted!

@young karma that’s so crazy! It looks soooo good. So we’re your clouds just an image of clouds only? And then the way you blended it all to make it all look so good! Ah, one day I hope to be able to do this.

This is my first time participating in a challenge (I just joined the server) and I haven't really done a ton of photoshop edits like this so I would super appreciate feedback! I'm actually surprised that it turned out pretty well. Probably because I spent way to much time on it 😁 . I was specifically wondering how to reflect the stars in the water in a way that would look good. Also does the lighting look alright?

The photo seems very serene at night. I love it! The only thing that was scratching my head was that bright large dot. Is that a planet or a large star? I wonder if adding a moon instead to look at would be something that makes it more interesting? @tulip crow

Back in June I was on a Study Abroad trip in the Czech Republic, and my favorite part of the trip was spending two days in Česky Krumlov. What a cool town. I changed this awesome day photo into a night photo. I hope it looks somewhat realistic. I'm a little worried that the land is too dark.

Drew the trees old school and used the app. Used the brush tools, filters and blending modes to create the rest. Not 100% happy with clouds or how trees came out, but time to move to next challenge. Used moodboard for colours and inspiration.

@tulip crow That’s looking awesome! Really great photo and excellent execution. This was a day shot turned to night? The colors and values are spot on, very well done. Was this just one photo plus the sky?

#

@hexed tree Nice work Valka! If you were going to a shadowed sunset scene I think you could use a levels adjustment to brighten the whole image up a bit. Right now it’s a bit dark. Even if it’s a nice scene you’ll see a good amount of light in night photography, usually just with a much colder color scheme. If you were going for a total night scene it might help to choose a sky that doesn’t have the warm sunset colors. Nice work either way!

#

@next karma Wow, really great work on this! I love what you did with the colors in the water, and the yellow lanterns are an awesome temperature contrast. Great stuff!

#

@ancient lance Really nice job on this. The sky replacement and adjustments go a long way. Very convincing as a night scene! If you wanted to play up the focal point of the image to make it a bit more exciting it could be interesting to play with a levels adjustment or saturation adjustment, particularly in the sky to get some more eye catching colors. Well done πŸ˜„

#

@arctic scarab This is looking really cool! I love that landscape shot. Everything is looking really good, the only things that catch my eye is the mountain’s edge in the background could be sharpened up in the blurry spots, and the horizon line on the ocean could be sharpened up a bit to match the sharpness of the rest of the photo. Nice work!

@pastel dove Great idea on the Day 3 challenge! I really like how you worked the lighting to look like a street lamp shining down on him. It gives the image a strong focal point. The background looks great too!

#

@hidden pendant Nice work combining the two techniques! I sometimes use the smudge tool with a little bit of scattering checked on for things like wispy clouds or rippled water. I also use a specific brush for clouds which can work wonders very quickly. Nice work!

@uncut yew Really cool to see a more sci fit take on this challenge! There a really nice sense of depth in the image. Even though it’s night it might be nice to brighten up the landscape a touch to match the lighting of the rest of the scene and the spaceship. Or darken down the spaceship slightly, or perhaps a little of both? Might also help to move the spaceship up and to the right a little bit to avoid any near tangents. Just some thoughts, looking good!

#

@glad flame Very nice! Great composition and sense of depth. Really cool to see what you’re coming up with for these challenges!
@empty siren Really liking the idea with the headlights! Nice work on this. I think perhaps the whole image could be brightened up slightly, and maybe the right edge of the headlight beam could be softened slightly to look more natural. Nice work with the sky replacement!

#

@winter sable Very nice! This is a really cool image for this challenge. Really liking the colors in the sky!

it's so, glowy

I mean, if that's what you were going for then fine, but it just looks really weird

#

and some of the water and rocks are transparent

#

Other than that, yeah it's pretty good

#

@tribal gate your put a ton of feathering on your masks, or you just use a brush with no hardness to mask them, either way, this gives everything in your photo a glow effect, again, if that's what you were going for, all is forgiven, if not, you should try to fix that next time, anyways, personally I'd make the background a litter darker, but that's about it.

@young karma good job darkening the scene.

@paper oracle awesome work!! This is a super large piece you’ve chosen to do! I think you could improve it if you shanked the lighting from the moon.

So I found Challenge #4 much harder as I wanted to add multiple images from different photographers taken in different lighting/weather conditions/etc. Still not in love with it, but I think I have reached the extent of my current skill level for now.

Day 4 - Day Scene - Used the sky and one of the mountains from the source files from Jose. I duplicated the highest mountain by selected the mountain and pasting. 3 layers thick then used the brush tool to add highlight.Used Lighten blending options on the layer. Used a color overlay with blending to brighten the mountain with snow. Added a shape in right corner, used the gradient tool with color next to cloud and white. Used warm colors on a clipping mask for the sky to warm it. Hill with sheep added with more detail to move the other parts of the scene back.

This is may Day 4 challenge. I tried to pick images where the light is from a similar direction, but not sure I have this 100%. Images are from Pixabay that I had downloaded for other compositions I had in mind. I really liked the woman on the stone wall and wanted to blend with another image for a cartoon effect.

@hidden pendant from city to nature, I like it πŸ˜ƒ Imo the lighting works well, I don't think I would have thought this was a composite!

#

@tulip fern Very nice, really cool to see all the assets you used to create this. I really like the whole visual theme, it fits together nicely. If I had to make an small nitpick it might be to soften up the really sharp edge of the horizon, maybe with a subtle layer of haze or something? It might make it look a bit more natural.

#

@edgy idol This turned out great! I really like the framing of the whole image. The terrain difference is really cool too, definitely gives the whole image an otherworldly vibe. This is basically just personal opinion, but I think if the edge between the white part and the desert was a bit more gradual it might look a little more natural. Particularly in the center area. Very nice!

#

@glad patrol Ooh, I like this! Very cohesive color palette, it matches the images nicely. Really cool to see a heavily floral inspired mood board.

#

@cold cedar Nice work! I really like masking with the eagle and the letters. Really great lighting to the image too. Perhaps the top text could be a touch dark for better readability?

#

@rough sparrow This looks awesome. Makes me think of a dangerous fantasy world. I think perhaps the feeling on night/late sunset could be sold more if the sandy foreground was a bit darker and cooler in color. The warmth of the sand makes it look lighter out. Really like how the sand gives a dynamic sense of perspective!

#

@viral ibex Very cool Dee! It’s nice to hear/see the breakdown for how you guys make your images. Loving the sheep, hah. I think it might help to brighten up the overall values of the mountain in the background to help it fit in with the scene better. It could also be nice to add another layer of mountains in the background for some added depth. Nice job!

@bold valley Looking good Ralph! Some nice depth in the Day 4 challenge with all the different layers. The only thing I might suggest is to sharpen up the edges of the left most rock to have it match up with the rest. That and it might be a nice touch to make it a bit smaller to get a stronger size contrast between the various rocks. Good stuff!

@hidden pendant Really nice composite! Really nice work on the layering of the various images, it’s nice to see how this was put together. Perhaps using a levels adjustment to brighten up the landscape a little might make it match the lighting on the girl a bit more. Very cool!

#

@empty siren Very cool idea and very well put together! The colors and lighting of the images all fit together nicely and the composite is very clean and convincing as well. If I had to suggest anything it would be that making the girl a bit bigger might make for a stronger focal point in the image. Either way the image has a very nice balance!

#

@spark wharf Very nice work Michele! I really like the way you layered all these images.They are all very well composited too, really nice and clean selections. This is more of a nitpick than anything, but I think it might help the visual hierarchy of the image a bit if you separate the land masses by darkening down the foreground a bit, and lightening up the contrast (especially of the dark tones) of the further rock. It should help separate these by value a bit more and give a little sense of atmospheric perspective. Might help the overall readability. Just a thought. Great work πŸ˜„

#

@arctic scarab Really cool to see how much a sky replacement can make a difference! It gives the whole image a different mood and feel. The balloons are a really nice touch too, I like how you got a little size variation with them, adds some nice depth!

#

@west birch Great designs and texture in this Day 2 challenge! This has a really cool visual balance to it as well, nice to see all the size variation throughout the design. Looks like you had fun with this one, really nice work!

#

@sturdy vault Looking good! I haven’t seen the original files but this definitely has a really solid night time read to it. The moon’s reflection on the water looks great as well, very nice touch that adds a lot to the believability of the scene. Well done!

#

@plain sable Ooh, very cool. The sky adds a much more ominous mood to the whole image. I like how it balances out the contrast between the giraffe and the sky/ground a bit more as well. I’m not sure if you did a color adjustment, but it might help to make the ground a little more towards to cooler bluer tones to help sell that night feel?

Maybe I'll try again another time to put the sea and electric lines back in.

@young karma I like the idea with the reflective glass sphere in the center πŸ™‚ I think you could increase the opacity of the hand and the glass sphere. it is barely visible right now

#

try bringing out some of the shadows. I think JesΓΊs Ramirez showed how to do that in his Challenge with the water bottle πŸ™‚

#

@young karma Ooooh I like the night shot with all the lights in the background! Which filter did you use to blur the background? The Gaussian Blur?

#

@thorn geyser wow! This looks absolutely convincing! I don't see any hard shadows that would give away the effect and the selection around the tree looks clean πŸ™‚ The Stars look great behind the ruin. Maaaaybe a bit too purple in the foreground πŸ˜‰ just maybe

#

but great job!

#

@whole bridge cool effect! I like all the warm tones and the bright shadows. Just make sure to also brighten up the person on the right. I think you can also remove the drop shadow (I mean, there wouldn't be a shadow in the sky, right?)

#

this area looks a bit odd too. I think you should apply the same color effect to this area. unless you want to create some kind of ethereal/ghost character - then you can try adding a transparent version of a person

#

@obsidian venture Nicely done! The colors are matched nicely. Just be careful with the blur πŸ˜‰ If you take a real photo, you would expect to have different focus planes, depending on the distance between the object and the camera lens.

#

@glacial path thank you so much! next time I 'll do my best

#

@obsidian venture by the way, the selection of the plane looks really clean to me - and selecting this isn't trivial since the colors are very similar

obsidian venture
#

@empty siren thanks a lot

#

@knotty cosmos awesome job! I really like the saturated red tones and the glowing hot sun πŸ˜„ The scene looks really convincing and the birds are a nice touch! Just don't forget to add a reflection to the water πŸ˜‰

knotty cosmos
#

@glacial path Thanks a lot 😁 I tried to make a reflection on the water but failed :( can I share the psd file so that you tell me how to do that??

#

@young karma haha! What a great idea πŸ˜„ I think you can brighten up your hand and arm slightly to match the brightness in the shot. You can compare it to the girl's face πŸ™‚ If you can, try to remove the darker shadows on the edge of your foreground layer

#

@knotty cosmos here's the way I did it: First, look for a reference photo like this one

#

paste it to a new layer in your document

#

then, open the blending options of your layer via right-clicking and picking Blending Options or via Layer -> Layer Style -> Blending Options

#

and click OK

#

finally, add a layer mask to remove the unwanted parts of the reference image. That's it πŸ™‚

knotty cosmos
#

@glacial path Oh I see great idea thanks!

#

@fervent plank lovely! Just make sure to take the time to select the trees so you don't get a transition like this πŸ˜›

#

@fervent plank I'm guessing you want to add a lightning effect to the sky to simulate a thunderstorm?

#

@blazing quail I like the idea of having an architectural shot of the inside as an overlay but the lower two thirds of the image are already very busy so the overlay seems a bit too much πŸ™‚ But it looks great over the clouds!

#

@wet thistle if at all, the clouds look slightly squished πŸ™‚ The colors look great and the masks are pretty seamless. I think you can bring down the purple in the foreground a bit and push it more to the blue-ish side πŸ‘

glacial path
#

@dusty pond wow! I love the new sky πŸ˜„ But I would reduce the saturation by a lot to more match the foreground

#

@supple cipher That looks... not very safe πŸ˜†

#

@supple cipher I think you did a good job with the selection of the tiger. You can still see some artifacts here and there but they are pretty easy to paint out. I would mainly focus on the baby. The shadows don't really match the photo. Try to increase the brightness of those dark spots. Maybe you can also add a blue-ish cyan color wash to the layer to blend it in with the rest. πŸ™‚

#

@forest aspen lol. no comment 🀣

#

@forest aspen I think you did a fantastic job tweaking the colors. The red shadows look epic!

#

@silent nimbus nicely done! The illustration looks super cute and I think you could even increase the size of those balloons πŸ™‚ Great job πŸ‘

#

@bold valley I think you're almost there! The mountains and the clouds look awesome. The lake adds a level of symmetry to the image πŸ™‚

#

@bold valley but the mask here needs some refinement. You can see the sharp edge and there are some areas where the background is showing through

young karma
glacial path
#

also: notice the direction of the sunlight. if you look at the mountains, the sun has to be behind us. So you would expect those trees to be brighter πŸ™‚

#

@young karma Great transformation and lovely moodboard πŸ™‚ I like the arrangement of one big and three smaller images. You should totally add some color swatches for inspiration to the moodboard

#

@dusty pond I love the selection of images! The sky looks epic and the grass is super vibrant πŸ˜„ I think you could brighten up the are here (see arrow 1) to match the overall brightness of the scene. And the mountains (arrow 2) look a bit too purple .Maybe you can shift the hue (using the hue & saturation filter) to a more blue tone πŸ‘

glad patrol
glacial path
#

@buoyant nova this landscape looks epic! I think you could make the sand a bit brighter (the clouds look really bright too, they're almost overexposed)

#

@young karma the proportions look great and the colors are very vibrant πŸ™‚ I think the background might even a bit too saturated. Try to bring down the saturation of the background - this would help the eye to focus on the important parts of the drawing πŸ‘

@glacial path Thanks Tim

#

@lime ermine yes, the brighter version looks better - I can see more of the original colors and the shadows aren't too dark. Well done πŸ˜„ It looks super clean

#

@austere hornet I think you did a great job matching the colors. The sky also looks epic πŸ˜„ I wouldn't go quite that dark - I think you can bring back some of the highlights on her arms and shoulders. This would help to separate the subject from the background without having to work with different hues

austere hornet
#

@glacial path thank you for the tips Tim 😊 will work on it and fix the highlights 😊😊😊

#

@magic hedge I love the black & white version of the background! They certainly help to set the scene. Maybe you can refine the selection of the horses - I think they would look better as a non-transparent version πŸ˜„

#

@austere hornet great selection on her hair by the way

austere hornet
#

@glacial path I am flatered xD I have been working quiet long time to master that hair 😊

#

Thank you @glacial path When I placed the image into Discord I realised it was way to purple, so I put the fill down. I will see about the blues. The I found difficult, but will try to make it better πŸ˜€
