@young karma very nice job! Loved how you made the frame and the text consistent by using the colors present on the image. My only nitpick would be to lighten the dark tones on the bottom area of the text, just to make it appear more, especially on the A where it seems to be blending to the background, making the readability a bit difficult. 😉

#

@gilded flame You did an amazing job with the snow effect, especially how you achieved depth with the falling flakes and how all the areas of the image seem to be covered by the snow, creating an impression that it is really cold (and making me want to have a hot chocolate ☕ haha). Awesome work!

slow stirrup Jul 30, 2020, 10:44 PM

#

@neat sparrow this is looking really nice, but the letters are very unclear. Maybe try to move them to the sky area, so that it would show.

coral stone Jul 30, 2020, 10:48 PM

#

@indigo monolith this makes me want to travel haha. You did a pretty good job with the effect. My only suggestion would be to decrease the brightness of the background a bit. It doesn't need to be strong, you can keep it subtle. This way the text and the frame will be able to pop a little more from it. 😉 Very nice work!

This is looking beautiful @sweet fern Really like the diagonal direction of the texts, it makes it feel very consistent with the towers of the church. The knockout effect is very cool, my only suggestion would be to apply some brighter tones on the middle colors of the frame, so the O and R areas will be able to appear a little more from the background. Good job! 🙂

@untold iron lovely color adjustments on the image, Jane! I liked how you played with the knockout effect by placing the text on the bottom part of the frame and making it look like it was on the water. Awesome work 💯

@queen aspen haha the crayon effect turned out super cool in your work! I like the vibrant colors of the sky and the grass as well. Day 8 is wonderful! Loved your font choice and how it matches the context of the image very nicely, giving a magical mood. Great job

#

Cool job playing with overlaps, @queen dew! The shades on the text match the high contrast present on the image very nicely! Well done 👍

#

Loved how you kept the adjustments subtle @gritty violet! The saturation edits are on point, especially in the sky and the way that the trees and grass have a very dark shade of green. Nicely done!

#

@slow stirrup loved the realism that the crayon effect produced on the balloons. Great textures as well. The cyan tones for the text on day 8 are looking super nice, especially that it allows the text to have enough contrast creating a minimalistic look, at the same time as it brings even more consistency to the composition.

#

@fluid wharf great work! Loved the font and image choice. The bevel and emboss was a great touch to make it look even more interesting. Well done!

#

@winter tinsel I absolutely loved how your image has some adventure look. The coordinates were a very creative approach. My only suggestion would be to give the number so bit more of space among them, it doesn't need to be a lot, you can keep it subtle, so the areas like the 123 will be able to be read easily. Awesome work!

#

This is lovely @young karma! Loved how the bevel and emboss produced a subtle 3D look to the image. This could be a super cool postcard. Nicely done!

#

@raw oak Great job keeping the colors consistent! My only suggestion would be to reduce the size of the Bevel & Emboss juuuust a bit. This will increase the readability of the text since the letters are close to each other

#

@eternal mica oh this is cool! Loved the animation, Ted. It reminds me of the 3D rendering in Photoshop haha Great job!

#

@neat sparrow Great job creating some contrast with the colors on the images! My only suggestion would be to fine-tune the contrast of the text a little more, especially on the left side. In addition to @slow stirrup's feedback, if you position the text higher, you can play with some overlaps between it and the buildings, another thing that you might try is to add a white stoke on it or some colors that might be able to make it stand out a little more, if that’s the effect you’re going for, of course 😉 Well done!

#

@safe ledge This turned out super cool! Loved the snow on the surfaces. My point of feedback would be to smooth this edge 👇 so the snow will blend even more to the surface, for that, you can use a layer mask with a soft round brush. You can also increase the distance between the Blend If sliders a little bit more, so these areas will look smoother 🙂 Nicely done!

#

@tropic knoll wow this is very creative, CK! Loved the color grading and how you played with the knockout effect showing the interior of the house. Amazing job!

#

@tropic haven very nice job, Jessie! Really like how the knockout effect worked very well with the transparent areas of the car. 👍

#

@peak sentinel super cool lighting adjustments, Drew! Loved how the adjustments made the colors and the subject pop. Also, the edits made the details like her phone and the window in the background get more attention, which is great! Day #2 colors are looking nice as well!

#

@young karma you did an amazing job blending the images! Loved the knockout effect and how you positioned the text in a strategic place, where it doesn’t make the image look busy, giving even more balance to it. This would turn into a great postcard 😉

coral stone Jul 30, 2020, 11:53 PM

#

Very nice work @compact pecan! Loved that you played with additional graphics on the frame for the knockout effect. My only suggestion is an optional one, you might position the elements more to the bottom of the image, so the river and the bridge will appear more, at the same time as the frame and the text will occupy an area where they will make it be able to have more contrast. (You might consider brightening their yellow tones if you see you don't have enough contrast). 😉

Not really what I was going for, so I had to settle. I think if I started with what I wanted for my Background layer and could have used the Deep knockout, it would have worked ...

@compact pecan in this case, on the iPad, you can add a clipped adjustment to the graphics, layer like Levels or Curves and then try to brighten it to see if it helps. 🙂

@south adder Great texture in the crayon effect challenge! Not sure if it was all the same brush but I think the crayon effect reads a bit more on the marks with more texture, such as the brown border. The texture on the house is a bit smoother and has a bit of a different overall look. Nice job with all the different elements in this one 👍

#

@arctic rover Cool combination of images here! The gradient across the portrait makes for an interesting effect. The brush texture is looking good!

#

@queen dew I like how you split the Day 6 challenge down the middle to show both seasons! One thing I’ve noticed is it seems like keeping certain bits of color intact helps the rest of it read as snow more. Otherwise it can almost appear as a B&W photo. Maybe a bit of blue still showing through in the sky, or even an overall cool bluish tint to the scene, or maybe a little coloration of the brown in the fence? Just some ideas. Nice work with the falling snow/blizzard effect!

#

@young karma Really nice textures and design effects for the Day 7 challenge! Kind of an interesting variety of textures too, with the hard edges dome shape, the outline of the car, and the clean black fill. Really liking those swirly designs and spikes texture coming from the dome!

#

@midge#4065 This turned out great! You got a really convincing snow effect, and I think the color in the sky, and the cabin help the rest of it read as snow. There seems to be a bit of cooler blues in the shadow of the snow on the roof and on the ground which really helps too. Great job on the snow falling effect as well, nicely done!

#

@naive mural I love it! The designs for the Day 8 challenge are looking great. As someone who grew up with the show these look great. I feel like I could see these being an actual promo image for the show, hah, really great style, and I like the design variations too!

#

@young karma Super cool! Really loving the whimsical feel of this design! The text is a cool tie in to the city. Really nice compositing as well, the colors and lighting all feel really good together. This looks like it could be a real ad for a show or movie or something. Really nice work!

#

@tropic knoll Ooh, great idea for this one! I really like how you combined it with your previous challenge too. That particular image also adds a really nice pop of warm color to contrast the cold of the rest of the image. Makes for a really nice focal point!

#

@safe ledge Very nice, I really like the snow effect on the tops of the trees and bushes in the foreground! I think maybe getting a bit of a blue in the sky and darkening it down enough for the white roof to contrast against it might help strengthen that snowy look. It seems like certain key pops of color such as the sky help the rest of it to read as snow rather than a B&W image. Looks good!

#

@vale sandal Really nice, I like how you used a shade of purple from the photo for the graphic shape at the top, and the punch out technique also helps make the colors of the whole design look really unified and natural. Nice work!

#

@lucid plover Nice job Fery, this looks good! It definitely has a bold look against the background. Really nice job with the sense of dimension and lighting on the string of the tag. Good job!

#

@hollow yarrow Great photo and formatting for this image! The square composition works well for this photo. I really like the texture and lighting of the white shape too, gives it some nice added dimension. Well done!

#

@hot thicket Nice job John, the texture is looking good 👍 Also really interesting effect with the gradient graphic surrounded by the stroke with the brush texture. Nice work!

#

@blazing quail Cool effect! Nice photo too. It could be interesting to see a version with the knock out effect within a shape. Maybe a shape with the same color as the brick of the house could be a cool effect, it might give the color a nice balance throughout the whole image. Just a thought. The dimension on the text is looking good!

#

@safe linden Really cool take on the Day 8 challenge! I really like the dramatic ominous look of the red coloration, kind of looks like it would be a shot from some movie like Blade or something, hah. The black box of the text fits in nicely with the black graphic of the city and buildings. Nice work!

#

@primal fulcrum That definitely sounds like a fun way to do it, especially with a tablet. Always cool to see the effect appear as you paint it in. Really great texture, and the bevel adds a really solid sense of dimension. Nicely done!

#

@pure wigeon This turned out great! You got a really convincing snow effect, and I think the color in the sky, and the cabin help the rest of it read as snow. There seems to be a bit of cooler blues in the shadow of the snow on the roof and on the ground which really helps too. Great job on the snow falling effect as well, nicely done!

@sacred field Yeah, it is limited. Using groups is the way to go. Your graphic looks amazing!

DCC #8 I thought the best part of the challenge today was the ability to modify the text, as oppose to just using a normal Masking Layer, so there two where the text is editable.
@naive mural They both look great! I'd go witht he second one. Which state is Springfield in? 😉

Hey @prime temple, I like your image of New York City, I think the overall composition is coming along nicely. The photography in the background of the city feels a little green to me though, I would suggest maybe playing with the color balance for that image. The typography is nice as well, but the dropshadow on the script typeface really catches my attention. I think that shadow might be a little too intense right now.

#

Hey @pale topaz, yeah this banner is looking really great! I love the colors you're using in the swirl on the outer sides of this image. The center character is really cool as well. It begins to remind me of Kirby mixed with a ghost. Behind that character you have some blue/green speckles. I really like that addition because it begins to make the character in the center feel like it's in motion.

This is a very nice start @pale topaz ! I like how the shapes have a neon look because of the gradients. If you want, you might add more details to the subject in the middle, like darkening the eyes and adding more strokes, maybe a nose, mouth, ears... The key is always to keep practicing. You're doing great! Don't hesitate in @ me if you need any help 😉

#

@pseudo current wooow this turned out really great, Adem! Loved the textures that the effect produced on the walls. You did an amazing job maintaining the essence of the image. Excellent work!

#

@hollow yarrow , I was going to say that you did an impressive job, but I said that yesterday 😂. Great job with the drawing, loved the way that you created shadows and highlights, especially on the character. The subtle blurred stars on the background were a great way to add depth to the composition. Awesome work! 💯

#

@fluid wharf nice job with the illustration! I liked how you added a contrast of realities combining image and vector. My suggestion would be to place the right hand in front of the subject, just to add more depth and enhance the impression that it is ready to shoot. Well done 👍🏻

#

That’s great to hear @sweet fern! Thank you so much for participating, hope to see your works on the next set, pretty sure it will be awesome!

@young karma how cute! Lovely vector art, Deepu! I like how you faded the bottom areas of the tree. Here's an optional thing that you might try:
You can position the bigger trees more to the front and the smaller ones to the background, behind them, and play with opacity, as they move away, more faded they will look. This will give your image more depth since you'll be creating a perspective view on it.
Great job!

#

@untold iron super cool job, Jae! I like that you played with different tones for the Spider Baby :D. The balance of the saturation tones made it look very cohesive. Nicely done!

#

Super cool job @queen aspen! Really like how you added some lights on the buildings' window behind! The circular shapes through the web add a powerful look to them. Well done!

#

@fringe sun Super cute work! The texture and colors worked out great on the illustration! If you want, you might play with more textures for the trees and the background, just to see how it looks. Awesome job!

#

That's a very nice cover @arctic rover! Loved the picture of the background. My only suggestion would be to straighten the horizon line (where the sky meets the ground) on it. To do that you can select the crop tool > from the top bar you'll see a leveler icon > select it and then click and drag to create a line following the direction of the horizon line 👇 . Ps will straighten the image for you 🙂 Let me know if you have any question. :)
Well done!

@plain sable this turned out really cool! Loved how you positioned all the elements without making the image look like there's too much going on!

Great job!

@gilded flame woow this is awesome! Loved how the serif font choice, when combined to the color of the background, they create a great premium/fancy look to the image. The white from the text matches really well the rectangle one on the edges. This is just a personal preference, but you might remove those vertical bright areas on the very left and right of the image, making everything with the same light value, just like the middle area 😉 Awesome job!

#

@plain sable you can try an even darker tone, kind of making it appear just the silhouette of the buildings.

@safe ledge It would just be a fairly standard sky replacement technique. You could do it a couple different ways. One would be to just make a clean selection of the sky with something like the quick selection tool and mask it out. Or you could use channels. Here's an example from a stream with Anna McNaught from some time back where she shows how she does it at 15:45 https://www.behance.net/live/videos/4671/Adobe-Live-Photography-1-of-3?tracking_source=to_replay

Then you could put an alternate sky image or make your own gradient behind the image to replace the masked out sky. Alternatively you could just use adjustment layers like levels and/or hue and saturation and mask it so it only affects the sky to adjust the brightness and color. Hopefully that makes sense.

#

@fringe sun Nice job with the knock out effect, the white shape gives the text a lot of nice contrast! The color grading gives it a nice unified look too. Looks good!

#

@deep mango Looks good! I like the gradient on the shape with the text. It fits nicely with the colors in the photo. The text effect turned out well, nice job!
The x-ray effect looks really good too, I like the sort of x-ray colored tint to it. Loving the animation!

#

@simple idol Very nice! The color of the heart fits in nicely with the rest of the photo. The red adds a nice pop of color too. Nice job with the text effect!

#

@queen geode This looks great! I really like the collage of animals, there’s a really nice arrangement to them. I think it might be a nice effect to mask out some key areas where the animals are behind the “wall” but still showing through slightly transparently, like the back of the thing and zebra. Might give the whole thing a more solid feel. Really liking the colors and textures!

#

@naive mural This is awesome, you did the line drawing as well? Loving the background along with the colored character, they work together very nicely. The shading and lens for the goggles both look great. Makes me think of something from Tiny Tunes, hah. Impressive work!

#

@tacit condor Very cool! I really like the color scheme on this portrait, it gives him a really cool look. He looks like he would make a great villain character. Also great to see you coloring your own drawing for this challenge. The background texture and gradient works nicely too, gives the character some good contrast!

#

The knock out text is looking great too, I like the irregular edges of the shape used for the text.

#

@queen aspen Really cool ideas for both these images! I really like the double ring effect of the first one with the fish. The colors match really nicely as well 👍

#

@iron flicker Really great style with the text! The coloration looks really nice and cohesive with how you used the color of the car for the text backing graphic. It could be cool to also see a version where the text it completely knocked out to show the warehouse background behind it. Looks good!

#

@young karma Really cool texture! The bold color and stroke of the text almost gives it a sort of comic book feel. I like the effect that blending mode has on the lightning too. Nice work!

#

@arctic rover Hah, these are great. I really like the cat one, very fun idea. The texture and crayon effect turned out nicely! Text effect is looking good too, the beveled effect gives it some nice contrast!

#

@void yarrow This is the right section. Nice job, the vector shapes are looking really good! I like the little character you made, looks good 😄

#

@untold iron Really cool! Nice job lining the two images up in a believable way. It almost looks a little like there's a disc with a skull on it in front of her face. I think you could put a little shadow within the skull (I like to use a multiply layer for this) to make it look like it's within the face, or giving the disc a border might give it that sort of x-ray effect. Just a couple ideas. Maybe something like this? Nice work!

📎 Adobe-GIF-143.gif

#

@shy bobcat Nicely done Pam! The added background is a really nice touch, and the simplified colors really help the character pop and stand out the most. Looks good!

#

@young karma Ooh, this is a really cool idea! This looks great, really nice job reproducing everything. Really nice job matching the proportions and getting all the details in there!

@topaz stirrup Boneva#0324 I love it, really cool design! Kind of an alien looking monster. Really cool to see both the original sketch and how it turned out in vector form. The shaded portion gives it a lot of nice contrast and dimension. The texture is really interesting too, the interior lines almost give it a sort of drippy/melting look. The background and cast shadow on the ground are a nice touch. Well done :D
@soft arch Ooh, this turned out great. You really sold that snowy feel. I like how you kept some nice contrast between the snowy roof and the sky, it really helps that roof look like its covered in snow. The snow texture on the ground and falling snow are both looking really solid!

#

@vernal ice Oooh, super cool! Same hometown, hah. I didn’t recognize this image from the previous challenge, but this island is very recognizable now. The text is looking good, kind of a subtle embossed look to it. Very nice!

That's a very nice cover @arctic rover! Loved the picture of the background. My only suggestion would be to straighten the horizon line (where the sky meets the ground) on it. To do that you can select the crop tool > from the top bar you'll see a leveler icon > select it and then click and drag to create a line following the direction of the horizon line 👇 . Ps will straighten the image for you 🙂 Let me know if you have any question. :)
Well done!
@coral stone As always, great suggestion! Although straightening the image created a raft of other problems. All of the other items: title, author, the cocktail glass all skewed as well. If I tried to use the crop>straighten tool on the title it reskewed the background. Then I wound up straightening by hand/eye those items (title, author, cocktail glass). How do I avoid that? Many thanks!!

coral stone Aug 3, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

@arctic rover One thing that you can do is to convert just the background image into a smart object > double click on the layer thumbnail access it and then apply the staighten adjustments. Let me know if that worked. 🙂

@chilly hawk The color shift within the text gives it some nice pop of color and added interest. Really cool texture on the text block as well. Looks good!

#

@plain sable There's some really nice contrast on the Right To Vote zine cover! I think the more simplified color palette is working really well. The "generic" cover looks good too, though giving the image some temperature contrast by either making the text or background warmer could look good and add some interest. Cool text style on these!

#

@winter tinsel Very cool, collaborative drawing, hah! Great personality and proportions of that cat, love it. I really like that soft edge/hard edge you got in the brown fur around the chest. The only thought I have on the perspective is based off the parallel lines on the right it looks like they recede to a horizon line that is basically lines up with the bottom edge of the house. But the horizon line would more likely be around the height of the cat's collar based off the perspective of everything else in the scene. Really great shapes, loving all the elements you added!

#

@sacred field Nice job Marc, the mock up and perspective is looking really good!

#

@hot thicket Excellent work John! Really great to see these all together in one place, looks like I missed a few of these. Nice job with all these techniques, cool to see how much you pushed the Rugby image with the puppet warp. I really like the background blur in the last Spiderman challenge you did, it really helps separate the character and adds some nice depth!

@fallow bough I like the desaturation very much -- now how about making the type font fit the image? To me, it needs to decay effect applied - make it look battered and worn, to go hand in hand with the theme of the piece... This for example was just a rusted metal fill, bevel, emboss, plant/tree overlay and then warped to shape. Concrete would likely be better for your piece though....

Day 1: Zine covers . Videos for the two projects shown here (paper box and finger puppet) are really on my web site under the videos button. You'll have to scroll down a bit to find the box, but puppets are in the first row. Title in Chantal light; rest in Buckley regular. Both are from the Casual Lettering Looks font pack. Background is an Adobe template. The photos are mine.

Loved the bounding box @lucid plover! The shadows are looking on point as well. I like how they separate the elements from the background. Perhaps increasing the scale of the title juuust a bit would make it even more visible (considering the size that you are going to print, of course 😉) Great job!

That's great to hear @short kestrel! Glad to have you here with us! If this is the cover and the back sides, consider that the right side will be the front area, so the text on the left won't be visible, making the phrases be split in the middle. You might place the texts on the right side and even create a connection between them and the illustration, the one from the middle might be the perfect candidate for that. Nicely done!

#

@simple idol that's super cool! Loved how the illustration on the back doesn't compete with the spider baby in the front. The details like the birds are looking great!
The fonts of the zine cover are looking amazing as well. The mask on the "A" turned out cool!

Really like how you managed the text's contrast @fallow bough! Since this is the cover for the zine, you might position the text on the right side, which will be the front part of the cover. Loved the desaturated look, it adds a nice mood for the cover when combined with the Statue of Liberty wearing the mask!

#

ooh great job @chilly hawk! Loved the dark atmosphere in the background. It makes the little spiderman pop even more from it. The spiderwebs are looking awesome!

#

That will be fun @fringe sun! Great job positioning the elements! The warped text was a great choice to match the context of the cover as well. Super cool work!

#

This is looking delicious @fathom holly! Loved how you sampled the colors from the donut and applied to the long shadows of the text. It makes the whole design look very cohesive. 👍

#

Great theme @pliant geyser! The neon of the word emotion is looking on point, also it matches really well the dark background. Well done!

#

@sturdy vault Awesome cover Pam! Loved the illustrations and the texture on the background. My only suggestion would be to fine-tune the text's contrast. Maybe reducing the saturation of the red or even sample some bright areas of the cup will increase its contrast, if it isn’t still enough you can apply a very subtle drop shadow to it. Great work!

#

Amazing cover @onyx fable! Loved all the elements that you applied and how you achieved a nice balance on it! The texture of the font is looking nice as well! Can’t wait to see the other pages. 💯

#

Beautiful colors @bleak turtle I like the summer vibes that your cover has. Great job playing with the fonts and the letters as well!

#

@vagrant rapids wow this turned out great! Loved the blending effect on the letters! I also like how the image on the background does not compete with the other elements giving a nice balanced look to the cover!

#

Sorry for that @sacred field! These photos are beautiful! Their placement are looking great! Nice job playing with the texts as well.

#

Very clever way to play with the text @rugged iris! I like the colors that you chose and how the font matches really well the cover’s context. Nicely done!

This is looking pretty nice @young karma! My only suggestion would be that since The Fight For Life looks like it is the title of the zine, you might place it to the right side because it's the one that will be the front when printed. 😉 Well done!

If that’s the effect you’re going for, of course! Great job on the arrow of the background!

#

@arctic rover make sure to send me a copy of your zine when finished 😄 Loved how you played with the text. Also, the images were a great way to enhance the context of the cover. Awesome work!

#

Not at all @compact pecan! Loved how you played with the text and the effects on the cover. You can fill all the areas according to the guides on the template, just like Kathleen did on the live stream. Keep creating, you’re doing awesome!

#

Very nice job @untold iron! My thought would be to invert the placement of your elements, putting the text on the right side since when printing this side will be the front cover, so you might want the viewers to see it first 😉 Awesome job playing with the letters 💯

#

Cool effects @gritty violet! I like that you played with continuity in the illustration on the background. Well done!

#

@forest aspen great to see you’re back! Loved the torn paper effect, it matches really well the theme of your zine. Awesome work!

@fallow bough I like it with the blend layer -- I was thinking about what you must have done to achieve the effect in the dress and not the head/arm etc... and then saw the unblended one. Gives a feeling that liberty and justice are fading under the weight of what's happening in the USA

Hi everyone!
This is my Challenge #2 -
I did the haiku by myself. It is poorly written, but I hope it works.

Page 2...which is only half of the spread! And I got to work in that diamond layout for the gradient! If you keep it super subtle it just adds a 'glow' to the wine glass.

Loved the color palette @trail field! The blending of the images is looking very nice as well and I like how you added subtle tones to fill the white areas and achieve consistency. 💯

#

Great job with the night scene @lucid plover! Loved the overlap with the mountain and planet.

#

@potent spoke awesome font choice for the title! My only point of feedback is that since this is the cover, it will be split in half, so the left side will be the back cover and the right side will be the cover (front), this way your text will be split as well. You might position them to the right side so the viewers will be able to read the whole texts without having to flip the zine 😉

#

Great improvements @fallow bough! Loved the texture you added to the title and its overlap with the statue. Day 2 is looking very good! I like how you managed the opacity giving great focal points for the page. Nicely done!

#

@untold iron nice job playing with the shapes of the rocks. It makes the viewer’s recall the cover of your zine, which is a great strategy for achieving consistency in graphic design. The textures are looking great as well!

#

Loved the new colors for the cover as well!

#

@forest aspen nice job! I like the subtle gradient colors from the image. My only suggestion would be to place the text on the solid areas of the background image, without it being on the torn ones. This will make it more readable because the background image will act as a frame for the text, allowing your design to have more balance through it 😉 Well done, Marie!

#

@winter tinsel this cover is beautiful! What’s the name of the font that you used for Coffee House? I like how it has some nice shapes making the cover look even more interesting. Great job!

#

@plain sable great to see the template getting filled. You did an amazing job choosing the font according to the theme of your zine, I love how it has a historical look through the shapes, especially with the old style on the numbers. Awesome work!

#

Nice color choice for the gradient @sweet fern! I like that you sampled the colors from the shapes of the cover. The masking of the nail is looking very good, especially how the edges have kind of organic shapes which match the rust of it very well. 👍

#

No problem @onyx fable, hope to see you in the live stream tomorrow 🙂 Loved the colorful look of your day 2, the shapes and the textures are looking really great. Nicely done!

#

@urban berry good to see you’re back, Cindy! Loved the muted tones of the illustrations of your cover. The saturated tones from the text were a clever way to make them stand out from it. Can’t wait to see the next pages. Great work!

#

Beautiful work @hot thicket! Really like how you played with the state name and the map. My only point of feedback would be to place the IDAHO more to the right side, because, since this spread is the front and the back when you print and fold it, the left side will become the back cover, making only the H and O visible in the front side (the ones that are on the right side). 😉

#

@safe linden You’re doing an incredible job with your zine! Loved how day 2 is very consistent with Day 1. The Swedish colors and the maps are a great touch for the theme as well, did you use an effect for the reindeer? Just a suggestion, if you’re using the template to print it later, you might make day 2 portrait mode, unless this you’re going to divide it and make a full spread, of course. Great job!

#

@eternal mica I loved the look of your cover and the way that you place the elements and played with the font. Also, day 2 is looking very consistent to the cover as well, I really like how it has a nice hierarchy among the texts (the name, data, and overall information). Super cool job!

#

@gilded flame this is getting very nice, Nadia! Loved how you placed the text on the shape and how the colors are looking super cool.

@vagrant rapids looks nice but white of lavendar is very hard to read. You need a bit more contrast. Go darker with the text or maybe add a stroke or outline to make it stand out more.

#

@neat shale Great texture on this Day 1 challenge! I really like the more subdued colors and tones in this design. It fits very nicely with the sort of elegant style of the text. Nicely done!

#

@plain sable The color scheme is working really nicely on Challenge 1! The more subdued colors fit the sort of sepia look of the design while still adding a nice pop of color. Looks good!

#

@deep lintel The blue-orange color scheme is looking good! I really like the texture of those brush strokes. They have a really realistic brush texture, and the blending mode that allows the orange lines to show through gives it a nice balance. Nice work!

#

@buoyant nova Ooh I love the background image and texture on this Day 1 challenge! The typewriter style font works really well with the blend mode too. The way the text gets darker as it overlaps the flowers kind of makes it look like the typewriter ink is mixing with the paint a bit. The way you used colors from the flowers in the text gives the design a nice cohesive look too!

#

@flint lintel Very nice! I really love the topographical line texture in the background! It adds some nice interest while not pulling too much contrast. I think the title text might look a bit better if it was something a bit more simple so it doesn’t compete with the texture and complexity of the background. But it really just depends on the look you’re going for. Nicely done!

#

@primal fulcrum Great style to this Day 1 challenge Sig! I love the texture of the background, and the clean hard edged virus shape contrasts nicely against it in terms of both texture and color. The title text balances the composition nicely too. Looks good!

#

@trail field Really great effect on this Day 2 design! There’s a nice blends between the two images, and the stronger contrast on the darker image gives it a nice visual balance. The colored gradient gives the whole design a nice cohesiveness too!

#

@lucid plover Very cool! Nice balance of shapes in the Day 2 design. The color/value and gradient on the sphere makes it a really strong focal point, and the hill in front of it adds some nice depth!

@potent spoke The Day 1 entry is looking really nice! Great contrast between the solid text and rainy textured background. I really like the font here, though I wonder if a more simple font for the bottom text might read a little easier. I really like the subtle pop of color with the yellow and blue lights too, really nice design!

#

@queen dew Nice, I love the color scheme and texture variation for the Day 1 challenge! The bold colors and shapes have a nice balance in this design, and the texture really gives a strong sense of that traditional printing feel. Very cool!

#

@fallow bough Very nice Ken, the Rage is really subtle, but just enough to kind of act as a second or subconscious read which I think is effective in this image. Not sure if you saw the stream with Anna Daviscourt and I on Tuesday where we talked about this design, but to reiterate I really like what you did with the more subdued colors. It seems to fit the theme of this image very well.

#

@silver zenithe#0126 I love the color and texture of the background for the Day 2 design! It really gives a nice contrast to the more smooth look of the photo and gives the design a more tangible feel which fits nicely with the zine theme. The colors work well together too!

#

@winter tinsel Nice mix of text styles for this challenge! The curvature of “Culture” works really nicely with that image. The front and back designs seem to have a nice balance too, nice work!

#

@chilly hawk Great mix of graphic and photo elements in this Day 1 design! The realistic photos contrast really well against the smooth graphic shapes and low contrast of the background designs. The designs look really great too, and fit the theme well. Really nice balance of colors too, the title text has a great feel to it. 👍

#

@neat shale Great feel to the Day 2 challenge! There’s a really nice balance of the subdued tones and colors here. I like the blending mode of the pink rectangle that highlights the top of the flower. Really nice work with the noise gradient and brush stroke textures. Really nice balance to this composition!

#

@tacit condor You really nailed down that colorful sort of retro arcade look with this one! The gradient texture works really well, it kind of mimics that pixelated feel and gives the design some nice texture too. Nice job balancing the contrast of this design with all the different elements in it. The blue of the arcade machine acts as a nice focal point. Well done 😄

#

@young karma I love this! Such a cool design. The colored gradients and textures are working so well in this design. Really great color scheme and balance of shapes and contrast in this design! This turned out great, it would be cool to see all the original elements you used to see how this was created. Loving the textures and colors!

#

@urban berry Nice work on the Day 2 challenge! I like the contrast of the graphic shapes with the photo. I feel like allowing a bit more of the photo to show through at the bottom, and maybe even the top might look good. Currently the large grey rectangular space at the bottom seems like it could be better filled with some more colorful imagery, the cool blue tones in the image might do well to contrast the orange? Or even maybe a bit of a gradient in those areas could give it a nice balance. Just some thoughts. Nice job!

#

@sacred field Very nice Marc! I like the way you blended the photos of the dog together, they have a nice visual hierarchy to them and read well. My only thought is it might be nice to have a little bit more of a visual break in the text. I'm definitely no expert in this kind of design, but I imagine the formatting of magazines might be a good reference for how to visually balance a lot of text. Just to avoid it from becoming a wall of text, and to add a bit of visual interest and areas for the eye to rest in the design. Of course this is really just an idea depending on what you're going for. Nice work!

#

@hollow yarrow Really great balance of shapes and colors in this Day 2 design! The texture adds a really nice feel too, almost gives the design a bit of a tangible feel and hint of dimension. I like the sort of elegant feel of the thing text, but I wonder if something slightly thicker might be an easier read at that size. Great design!

#

@sturdy vault Very nice! Really cool use of the collage of text here. The bold red gradient definitely acts a strong focal point. I like the size variation throughout all the different words too. My only thought is that a more structured floral design on the right might work a bit better. I think the value contrast works really well, but everything else in the image has a really solid sharp edged feel. The more hand drawn design almost seems a little out of place. But I think a similar graphic floral pattern up the side could look really nice. Maybe something you find and mask as a shape for that would fit more than the hand illustrated look. Of course this is just a minor suggestion, just an idea. Nice work on this design!

@kindred trellis now you made me hungry haha! Great job playing with the overlap, it adds a strong depth to the image. My only suggestion would be to give some space between the headline text and the left and right edges. This will bring a little more breathing room for the design at the same time as it will avoid inconsistencies in the text when printed. 😉 Well done!

#

@shy bobcat lovely use of the gradients and the textures on the background. Well done!

#

Beautiful colors @fair berry! I like the way that the fonts correspond well with the background textures, giving a nice feel on it. This is just a personal preference that you might try to see if you like it: Day 1 seems to have less contrast and saturation than day 2. To even the values, you can use adjustment layers like levels and hue/saturation. Feel free to tag me if you need any help. Excellent job!

@young karma I love this! Such a cool design. The colored gradients and textures are working so well in this design. Really great color scheme and balance of shapes and contrast in this design! This turned out great, it would be cool to see all the original elements you used to see how this was created. Loving the textures and colors!

@slow stirrup, @kindred trellis made me hungry and now you made me thirsty 🍷 haha! Great job maintaining the consistency of the zine. This page is very cohesive with the cover. Also, I like the white space (the empty area on the top right) that you added, it makes the whole page feel more balanced at the same time as the reading is comfortable. Nicely done!

#

@tacit oracle very creative job playing with the opacity blending the shapes! I loved the way you played with the title on the left! Great job on the font choice as well, the geometric contrasts really well with the serif from the title. Awesome job!

@slow stirrup, Day 2 has a strong look and feel on the overall page, I don't see any point that is distracting on it. Maybe just a personal preference, I'd align the texts to the left, this will bring the title and the last line closer to the bottle at the same time as the viewers would create kind of an imaginary line (Blue line 👇) which will match the edge of the bottle. 🙂

@pliant geyser page 2 and 3 aren't next to each other though. I think it is 2 and 4.
@primal fulcrum I just looked at the template - it makes sense for a lay person, but print industry knowledge makes it seem really wonky. It's an 8 page document. Where Back/Front are shown, those are actually pages 8/1. This makes a big difference in understanding how things fold and page sequence.

@safe linden You’re doing an incredible job with your zine! Loved how day 2 is very consistent with Day 1. The Swedish colors and the maps are a great touch for the theme as well, did you use an effect for the reindeer? Just a suggestion, if you’re using the template to print it later, you might make day 2 portrait mode, unless this you’re going to divide it and make a full spread, of course. Great job!
@coral stone Actually the same effect for the Reindeer and the Volvo on day 1. Took a photo, desaturate it, duplicate it, invert and make the layer style color burn, then Gaussian blur, and add a gradient, and maybe a levels adjustment page.

Day 3: Grayscale to color on page 5. The photo of the braiding technique is from AdobeStock. The other two images are my photos. Too bad I don't have a source for real straw. Back when I first learned this technique (late 70's), straws were pretty wimpy -- designed to be disposable -- but soon disappeared when plastic straws became endemic. These new paper straws are really tough, which makes them more difficult to work with. Sigh . . .

Hi, @forest aspen. One technique that you might try is to increase the scale of the background image and adjust its position to fit the text area.
You can also take advantage of the text features like the leading to decrease the space between the lines. Select the text > under the properties panel, reduce the value from this icon. 👇 Be careful not overlap the lines making the reading uncomfortable 😉 Let me know if you need any help

Great job with the images, @eternal mica! My only suggestion would be to adjust the gradient fill on the texts. Since the rectangle is gray, some areas that go from black to white will be the same value as this gray. You can use a solid color like black for it or adjust the gradient in a way that the text will be more comfortable to read 😉

@coral stone Better?? I adjusted the opacity of the rectangle fill to 65%, changed the fill color to pick up the yellow of the stroke around his body, and added a 3pxl black stroke to the text.

Nice improvement @eternal mica. The stroke adds shape to the letters making it more readable. You can also brighten the black areas of the gradient text just a bit, giving it a dark shade of gray, so the black stroke won't blend with it 😉

#

Lovely work @gilded flame! I like the color that you added to the area behind the text allowing it to pop a little more without causing any distractions. Well done!

@eternal mica Great job, Ted! The text definitely reads better now 🙂

@coral stone For sure. I was too caught up in the grayscale mindset. This is much livelier. Thank you for your guidance and attention.

@plain sable Question: youre putting a ton of text into each day's project. If I understand where we're headed, each day will print on a space about 2"x3". Will your work be legible?

plain sable Aug 7, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

Thats what I'm working out now

#

I've been working to two of them and have one finished just printed it out

eternal mica Aug 7, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

@plain sable Maybe print a hard copy and see what it looks like before you get all the way to the end and find out it doesnt work

plain sable Aug 7, 2020, 12:12 AM

#

Just did just that with the one I finished, I'm tweaking that one to get the text right

Here's day 3! I put a color fill layer with soft light blend mode above my black&white adjustment layer and did so much color grading and correction on the photo i chose just to match the color scheme 😂 kept the design more simple for this day 🤗 https://www.behance.net/gallery/102030797/8620-Photoshop-Daily-Creative-Challenge-Day-3

Challenge #2: haven't wrapped my mind around the 'Zine yet, but I used a gradient mask to turn the painted ladies into a rainbow. I'll admit I could have had finer details. But I thought I got the idea across!

@lucid plover Very cool! I really like the dramatic brush strokes in the color transition. The sharp edges and angles seem to fit with the sports car theme nicely. Maybe the logo at the bottom being a bit more visible could help? I like how you're keeping the contrast of the logo more subdued to keep focus on the car, but I think a bit more could help. Nice job!

#

@trail field I like the gradual fade in your Day 3 challenge! There's a nice balance in the transitions. Though in the third one it's almost a little harder to tell. I think the transition might need to be more abrupt since the figure is thinner from a side view. Looks good!

#

@fluid wharf Ooh, really liking the graphic effects in this one! The sunset image adds a really nice pop of color to the design as well. I like how you used the text on the back cover as a sort of abstract graphic element. Very nice!

#

@bronze bluff Looking good! I like the subdued color with the pop of blue with the text, really nice contrast. The front and back are both looking good, and have a nice balance as a full design too. Really cool textured font style!

#

@fringe sun Nice use of the textured brushes for the black and white color challenge! The water splash adds a really nice and energetic background for this image. I like the effect of the water in the text too!

#

@shadow mural Very nice! I like the simplicity of your design for Day 3. There’s a nice visual balance between the photo and text as well 👍

#

@deep mango Nice balance to this Day 1 design! I like the name of the zine too, hah. There’s a nice stylistic consistency between the text and graphic elements. Both the front and back are looking solid, nice work!

#

@fallow bough I really like the way you used color in this design! The way the focus and saturation draws the eye to the mural makes for a really powerful effect. The color and contrast at the bottom also helps balance the image out. Nicely done!

#

@untold iron Interesting color and texture on the Day 3 challenge! The color of the graphic shape and text seem to fit the image well. It’s just a tiny nitpick, but it looks like you forgot a space after the comma before the word “ideal”. I like the sort of hand drawn addition on her head, though it looks a little out of place on it’s own. If you wanted to blend the photo style with the yawn drawn elements it might help to add a couple more to make it more of a solid theme. Just an idea. Nice work 😄

#

@uncut island Really cool way to frame the design for Day 2! The image in the middle also acts as a nice focal point with the color contrast. Really nice work on the masking around the window!

@onyx fable Really interesting style to this Day 3 design! All the elements contrast nicely against the dark background. I'm not sure if you wanted that hard edge style with the flowers at the bottom and the area at the top, though your mask on the palm trees is really clean so I assume that was intentional. It does give it a bit of a cut out collaged feel which I think is cool if that's what you were going for. Nice job balancing the shapes and composition on this one 👍

#

@rocky kite Nice work, these are looking good! I really like the spread of the ocean scene across the front and back of the cover. Though I wonder if giving the back view a small graphical element, even a little text, if that would help tie the two sides together a bit more. Just a thought. Looking good!

#

@neat shale The colors from the background tie nicely into the skin tone, it gives it a nice cohesive feel! I also like how the pink area of the flowers almost look like pink clouds. There's a nice mix between the soft cloudy shapes and the more textured brush strokes. Nice work!

@plain sable Very cool Sno! I really like the cohesive look and style between the different pages so far. It will be really great to see these all come together in a finished product. My only thought is challenge 3 is bordering on being a bit too busy. I feel like it might help to give the eye a place to rest. For example, if you got rid of the "stop racism" image, and moved the "impractical movements..." to the left it might balance it out a touch since there's already a similar image with the raised hands. Just an example. Liking how you're handling the colors!

#

@eternal mica Nice job ted, I like how you kept the color and design of the text and image simple. The background is so intense in texture and color that the only real way to make it work is with the subdued colors and textures of all the graphical elements. I think the stroke around the dancer helps too. Looks good!

#

@burnt marten Great effect! It looks so natural and convincing. The gradient has a really nice look to it, and the transition across the houses came out really well. Very nice job on the masking!

#

@gaunt wagon Looking good! I like the style of this, they all seem to have fairly bold colors which ties them together nicely. Though I feel like the first one could make use a bit more color contrast, maybe a warm gradient instead of the light blue in the background? Maybe something that shifts from blue to yellow or orange to mimic the sunset scheme of the other photos? Just an idea, of course it really just depends what you're going for. Nice work!

Kinda running a bit late on the challenges. Here is my Day 1 submission.
The theme is to show my gratitude towards things I had and also didn't with a combination of pictures and words in a very subtle way. Aiming for a very calm and peaceful vibe with this.
