@vague swift Day 1 can design is super. The eclipse look really sells the space motif. BG looks great. Cast shadow is a nice addition. Cool job all around.

#

@vagrant rapids Nice job on the girly pink Day 1 can. The offset of the drawing is cool also. One tweak Id make is the line drawing on the can is a bit hard to catch against the white overalls. Maybe a filled in body with a minimal opacity?? Just thinking.

@grave moss Welcome in. If you need help with anything or have questions, feel free to fire away. We're here to help. Nice initial effort. I remember how long my first exercises took. Im embarrassed to tell you. Yours is a good job. Youve incorporated a lot of elements. As a general comment, it would help if there was more cohesion to the design. Pick a focal point you want to draw attention to and then work to draw attention to it. You did a good job. Keep it up.

#

@candid cape hah, starting off your new portfolio on the right foot. Strong effort with Day 1 can. The BG image works so smoothly. The one tweak Id make is to make the drink name text much bigger/bolder. Since its what is selling the can, its hard to make it too bold. What do you think?

#

@ornate spoke Bold effort with Day 1 can. The rings look great. I like the font also. I would suggest the drink name should be a lot larger and bolder. Perhaps a different fill than black? Last, I would lower the intensity of the BG a bit. It detracts too much from the central object in the image, the can. Solid effort.

#

@burnt marten Solid effort with Day 1 can. Very cohesive image. The colors blend together beautifully. Very well done gradient in the ring. Cool font choice. One tweak I would make is to have the drink description in a bit more prominent font. Its a bit too small. I think it should be larger than the 330ml. I Love the effort.

#

@buoyant flax Very cool concept. The pastels really look cool together. I like the random shapes. I would suggest the BG be a bit more off from the pastels of the can so that the contrast is enhanced. The small type of shrub seltzer is a bit too small and with the fill youve chosen, difficult to read. You might want to play with that. Good job.

dusty karma Jun 23, 2021, 7:52 PM

I'm still thinking about the color of the drink name, don't know if I really liked the way it is

@grave moss Id love to hear how you took that picture!!! DM me with the story!!!! I was wondering what the shape on the can was, lol!!!!!

#

@faint beacon Very nice job. The vertical type is a cool twist. Just a suggestion but wouldnt the BG you added look awesome on the can itself??

#

@pliant comet If theres a cat in this one, I'll flip out!!! Nice work on the can. I like the color combinations. Perhaps a bit of Sam's shadow techniques from last DCC would work to soften the edges of the can and make it look a bit less digital. And maybe blurring the BG photo a bit to add perspective. As always, solid effort.

@shadow trellis Good job with Day 1 can. The ring has a cool glow to it. Well done. I like the glowing stroke you added. Its a nice touch. And it matches the text fill. One tweak I would think about is to change the BG to create some contrast between the can and the BG.

#

@candid chasm Wow, what a different take on the Day 1 can. Very creative concept. That is really "cool" The colors are pitch perfect. The splash is great. The blurring of the fern leaves and Bg adds nice perspective, and doesnt detract from the focal point of the image. I love how you placed the text on paths around the image. Awesome effort.

#

@candid cape super cover image. It really looks like a photo. The one tweak I would consider is to maybe blur the foreground and background of the picture with tilt blur to add perspective and bring more attention to the sign. Lovely effort.

@young karma Solid effort. I love the cohesion of the name colors and design. They work so well together. If I nit picked anything it would be to lower the intensity of the tree BG. Increase the focus on the paw logo. Increase the contrast between the two of them. And, I might try increase the size of the drink name. Its a bit too small for my taste. But you decide. Great effort

eternal mica Jun 23, 2021, 8:44 PM

#

@elfin thorn Interesting cover image. Did you do this with sky replacement? I would suggest a few tweaks you might consider. I might add a forward cast shadow to the text to give it a bit more perspective, in line with the rising sun. The cans could use some shadow effect as well to add realism. I had trouble seeing what the texture you have in the text is. That may be on my end. But you might want to choose a more harmonious fill.

#

@tranquil isle LOL, I love this one. The characters are adorable. Very cool concept. The blue works very well in the design and in the BG. I would suggest you create a bit more separation between the blue in the can and the blue in he BG so that there is more contrast between the two. Right now, its as if the blue squiggle on the can is actually a separation.

#

@trail field My doctor advised me to limit my comments to 2 cans per day!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

#

@frosty monolith Are you new here? If you are, welcome. If you need help figuring things out, just give a shout out. Your Day 1 can is well done. The ring and planet look fine. You might want to watch the video again and see how Kathleen explained to change the text and the can color. These are going to come into play in the upcoming exercises. Give it a look.

@short mica Well done day 1 can. The ring is really prominent. I would make one nit pick, that the text color is a bit too subtle for your design. I would suggest larger font size and more powerful fill.

#

@dusky wave Good job on day 1 can. The logo you created is cool. The outer glow is a nice touch. One tweak I might consider is to change the font fill to be in synch with some aspect of the logo. The white is a bit stark. You decide.

@elfin thorn Nice work on Day 1 can. The ring and moon look cool. One tweak I might consider is to add some depth to the tag line by giving it a stroke or drop shadow. Its a bit bland. (Oh and you're missing an "e" for taste). How about a gradient for the BG?

#

@tropic garnet Hah, once you forget to post, there's a three day waiting period to post !!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 Nice effort on Day 1 can. One tweak I'd suggest is to give some perspective to the top shape with either a bit of shadow, glow, stroke, etc. Right now, it looks like its just pasted on top of the other shape. and I would increase the size of the Star Trek type. Just my opinion.

@steel juniper Hello, and welcome in. We're excited to have you join us. If you need help figuring things out or finding your way around, give a shout out. Very nice effort on Day 1 can. The design concept is cool. Your treatment of the rings around the watermelon is well done. I would suggest adding a bit of shadow around the edges of the can to give it a bit of separation/contrast from the BG images. And I would try blurring the BG images a bit to keep the focal point on the can. Just my thoughts. You decide.

#

@lunar mango very cool Day 1 can!!! The composite image on the can is well done. I like the outer glow on the character. The colors work beautifully. The shadow you added to the can gives it lots of realism. One tweak Id suggest is to increase the contrast between the BG and the can. Well conceived, well executed.

#

@spare dust SOOO cool. Very creative concept. Lovely shading. The subtle face shape you created is well done. I might give the planet a bit more contrast from the can bg color. Thats a bit too muted . (I think you wanted to write SWEET rather than SWEAT.) Great job

#

@simple idol Powerful Day 1 can. Nice job with the ring and the can bg design. The font you picked is cool. I might suggest adding some more heft to the drink name with a stroke or two, or maybe a glow. Good job

@deep mango Oh wow, as usual, your post is awesome. Im envious that you got that font to work. I love using it. I wanted to use it, but couldnt get it right. Your coloration is awesome. The planet and ring look great. One nit pick I might suggest is to break the drink name into 2 lines of text and increase the font size to make the name a bit more prominent. I love the effort.

#

@dusky wave Nice effort for Transform exercise. The liquify you added gives the can a sense its moving. Well done.

#

@lucid plover Why am I not surprised that your artistic talent showed up at such an early age. Lovely interpretation. More a question than a suggestion: to be consistent, should there be an element of depth added to the door as you have it on the windows and roof?

#

@plain sable Youre the best!! Your Shapes can made me smile. Somehow you figured out how to get plant life into outer space!!! The rings look like theyre made of dandelion dust!! Love it.

@snow shale So cool shapes can design. The colors are bold and scream for attention. All of the shapes work great together. My only nit pick would be to add more ooomph to the ZAZA text. Its sort of lost in the powerful design. Maybe change the font fill to the green color to make it more cohesive with the design. Just a thought. Super effort.

#

@knotty cosmos Very nice! I really like the vibe of the font style and color in this design. The background texture is a nice addition and contrasts design nicely. Looking good!

#

@simple idol Cool color scheme! The colors have a nice feel to them and the texture adds a nice element of interest. Very nice!

#

@grave moss Cool colors on this design! The mockup is looking good and the perspective warp turned out well. Nice job!

@compact pecan Ooh, cool design idea! I like how you made the font style fit the theme of the rest of the design. Nice colors too!

#

@ripe quest Cool idea for this one! The perspective warp looks good and fits the form of your illustration nicely. Nice work!

#

@muted quail Really cool design! I like the look of the high-key contrast in this design. I really like the texture inside the circle shape and the background gradient. I feel like perhaps it could have just a touch more contrast, at least in the text area to give it a bit more of a clear read at a glance. Looks good!

#

@misty prism Very cool idea with the warped grid. I especially like how it fades to a more black color where it's warping to give it some extra depth. The perspective effect turned out very well. Great colors too!

@tropic garnet Super cool effect with the swirled paint! This turned out great, and I really like how the style of the font fits the feel and theme of your design. Also really cool to see how you used your own design from Fresco and the process behind it. Great work!

#

@wispy compass Really digging the illustrated element of the flower image! The whole thing has a lot of energy to it and the warped areas of the checkers as well as the wavy text fits that nicely. Well done!

#

@deep mango Really cool design, I like how much you played with shapes in this one. The diagonal slant to the planet adds some nice energy to the design. Great colors, and the font fits really nicely as well!

#

@candid cape Really nice use of the perspective tool in this Day 2 design! Both on the text as well as the checkerboard pattern. The wavy effect is a really nice touch too. Nice work!

@young karma Very nice, great color contrast between the green and red in this design! It could be nice to make the ring a bit of a brighter yellow/green to stand out like a planets ring, but that just depends on what you're going for. Another personal preference, but changing the Watermelon Galaxy text to the red of the watermelon might be a nice way to repeat that red and unify the design. Looks great!

#

@plain sable Nice job on the cover image! I really like the style and color of the text, and the bubbles are a really neat effect.

@civic verge Welcome. We're happy youre going to be joining us. If you need help finding your way around, or have any questions, feel free to reach out. Nice work on your first two submissions. You did a nice job with the rings and planet. The Transform can is nicely done. In both images I would suggest making the drink name a bit more prominent. Think about the font size, the fill color, the stroke. On your transform can, there is a gap in the transform pattern right across the middle. You might want to adjust that. Again, welcome.

@dusty karma We skipped over your disco peach. Very creative effort. One tweak I would suggest is to move the text off of the pattern. Its a bit too dizzying. Also, to really sell the peach as a disco light, I would suggest some more highlights, maybe an outer glow. Try softening the edges so it loses the "digital" look. Good job.

@ember wave Beautiful Day 2 can. The BG and the wispy lines are terrific. The shaded gradients on the can are beautiful. I would buy that can!! Little nit picks: To give the name more pop, why not use a shaded gradient as fill for the drink name? Increase the font?? And I would make the "energy juice" larger, more readable. I really liked this.

#

@thorn geyser Your Day 2 is awesome. I love everything about it. The checkerboard (I apologize for American spelling, LOL) on the cherries is a super touch. The fold in the perspective looks terrific. The transparent font on the white bBG works so well. Super effort. 👏 👏

Maybe add a stroke to give it a bit more definition? Increase the opacity a bit? You know better than me. You decide. Solid effort.

@muted quail Your peach passion can is for day??? Im not sure. I get lost looking at so many. The subtle coloration is very different and appealing. I would suggest making some part of the design more clearly the focal point. either the logo, the text, the coloration. Whats the story you want the can to tell?

#

@burnt marten Psyder is so cool. I love the colors. and the textures you added to the bottom apples. Cool concept. One tweak I might make is to change the BG to give a bit of contrast to the black from the can bottom. Good job

#

@faint beacon Your transform can is well done. The pattern is so subtle, especially the coloration around the edge. Nice job..

#

@astral lynx Great to have you here. If you need any help figuring things out, just give a shout. Your Day 1 is solid. The rings and planet look good. One suggestion Id make is to give the BG a different look to give the can some contrast. The blacks tend to blend together. Im looking forward to your future submissions.

#

@tired cape @hollow yarrow already welcomed you in, so youve gotten the best "Hello" possible. Just make yourself comfortable. We're all here to learn together and to have fun together. Your Day 1 effort is well done. I would make 2 suggestions: Add a bit of a shadow/stroke/glow to your planet so it doesnt look too "digital", as if its just pasted on.; I would play with the BG. The black of the bottom of the can has no contrast with it. Again, happy to have you.

@young karma Solid effort with your transform can. the colors are great. One tweak I would suggest is to make the drink name a lot more prominent. For something as powerful as that, it should be more dominant. You decide.

#

@elfin thorn I like your Day 2. It looks like the top text is balancing over your transform pattern. Nice effect. The colors work great also.

#

@timid pier Cool job with your Day 1. The glow you added to the ring, and its reflection on to the astronaut, looks cool. One tweak I would make is to have the drink name be more cohesive with the design by playing with the fill. I would also play with the BG to create contrast with the black of the can.

@candid chasm Your Day 2 is terrific. So creative. I love that the can doesnt have a name. The logo is so powerful, it doesnt need one. You did a good job with the transform also. The thick bright glowing line adds a lot to the pattern. If I wanted to nit pick Id say the text you do have should be a bit larger and you might think abut how to make it more cohesive with the design. But thats a real small detail. Lovely work.

#

@umbral sapphire HA!!! I Love it. But now Im dizzy!!! 😜 😜 Awesome design. Great work with the transform. Gradients work well too. One small nitpick, I would play with the BG to give more contrast to the can. Well done.

#

@sour pagoda Very nice effort for Day 1. The purple and yellow work great together. The font you selected is cool and I like the bevel emboss you added. I would make one small tweak and decrease the vignette a bit and give the can a little more space to breathe. But thats just my personal preference. You decide.

#

@deep mango Yes, Im dizzy!!!! Awesome design. The gradient added to your pattern transform definitely do the trick! My one nit pick would be the text is too bland. In that powerful a design, it needs help. Strong effort.

#

@sour pagoda I just saw your Transform can. Well done. The reflection is a cool touch.

#

@ornate spoke I think youre already having too much fun with this DCC!!! My computer screen blew up with this one!!! So vibrant. The green/purple/black combo really rocks. The way you added the transform pattern is well done. The duck is coool. Job well done.👍

#

@safe flint Never too late. Beautiful design. Wonderful execution. Your shadows throughout really sell the image. By adding orange color to the aluminum can, you really got a cohesive vibe. I would make one small suggestion: the can is bright and glowing, how about adding some of that orange glow around the can to soften the BG? I think it might really make the can pop. Just a thought.

Yeah, I was struggling with the text yesterday trying to use the black and white pattern behind it, I missed the welcome day of the challenge and I still hadn't watched it when I did this one, so I haven't thought about adding a stroke to it, do you think if I add a white blur behind the text will work?
For the peach I tried to give it some shadow to try to give this realistic vibe and don't seam to be a digital art, but it wasn't enough hahah Maybe with outer glow it will be cooler... Thanks for the feedback it really helps (sorry for the big text)

So Im thrilled to read your reactions to my comments, even if its long. Im still amazed ANYONE is actually reading what I write!!! 😂 😂
For your Disco Peach, if you add a shape behind the text, with maybe a soft blue fill color at low opacity, I think it would make a big difference. But I wouldnt completely hide the transform pattern, because you did a really good job with that. This is Ps. The whole fun is trying things I wouldnt think would work and then discovering how cool it looks. Try giving the peach a shadow. I think it will make it look great.

@grave moss Well that texture fits the theme of the design and background really nicely! I also like how you made the tail trail off into the spiral of the galaxy. The only suggestion I might have is to give the text another color to give it some more contrast and readability. Perhaps the yellow from the shark or the teal or dark blue from the galaxy? It might help unify the design a bit more too.

#

@young karma Very cool! I love the intense glow and halo around the planet from the Day 2 design. The warp on the checkerboard is looking really good and I like how it fades out a bit, as well as the star textures with it. The composite on the sky in the Day 3 challenge looks great too. Nice work!

#

@wispy compass Ooh, this resulted in a really interesting pattern and design, it definitely makes for an eye-catching look. This is totally personal preference, but repeating that neon pink at the top into the text color could be a nice way to balance the color in this design as well as really making the flavor title pop. Nice job!

#

@simple idol Great style to this design! I love the illustrated look and the shapes have a great read and contrast to them. Really nice colors as well. Very nicely done!

#

@short mica The perspective warp turned out nicely! I see a little bit of wobbliness in the lines of the checkerboard, not sure if this was an intentional effect or not? Either way it's looking good, I like the simple color scheme!

#

@candid cape Great job with the blending mode/double exposure effect, it's working very well! The colors all have a nice cohesive feel to them too. This is definitely a nitpick, but the serif font feels a bit old timey/classic. Maybe there's a a sans serif font that might have a more modern or futuristic feel that could work well thematically? Looks great!

#

@tawny badge Nice job with the planet rings and the sharp sun rays! It could be nice to see that orange or yellow repeated in the fill of the text to unify the design even more but that's just personal preference. Nice work!

#

@compact pecan Digging these colors! I really like the idea behind this one as well! The only thing that stands out to me is the edge you created where the jet trails disappear behind seems a bit hard, it seems like it might be a more feathered edge with that sort of cloudy galaxy look. Here’s a quick example. I also added a little extra light bleed using a color dodge layer on the edge of the opening. Very nice work!

Day 3 - Revised

@wispy compass Ooh, perfect!

#

@eternal mica Hah, loving the bathtub gin. Only the highest quality moonshine. I really like how you handled the color scheme in this, the blue and orange have a nice strong contrast, and they're balanced well throughout the design. I think it looks great but I'll get into very particular nitpicking territory for fun. Typically the big-medium-small principle is a good one for composition, so I feel like making the left orange planet a little smaller might help. That way we have the primary read of the dominant size of the moon at the top, followed by the secondary read of the Saturn looking planet on the right, and finally the left planet as the tertiary read. Right now it kind of competes for equal attention with the other orange planet. Again, super slight detail, but figured I'd throw it out there. Nice work!

#

@copper moss Really cool pattern with the Day 3 design! The font also fits really well with that more futuristic and clean looking design. Well done!

#

@dusty karma Hah, awesome idea for this banana flavor design. The image has a really nice, clean read and nice contrast. The only issue I notice is that the banana looks very dark compared to the lighting of the wings and clouds which seem like they're being hit by a bright light source. Maybe adjusting the levels to boost the brightness of the banana could help. Looks good!

@thorn geyser Loving the intensity of this Day 3 design! You created such an awesome sense of perspective and motion with the direction of the fiery electricity effect. I also love how you varied how it goes in front and behind the orange slices, really nice sense of depth with that. Very nicely done!

#

@gaunt wagon Loving the texture and colors on the Day 1 challenge! Nice work with the shape tools and masking as well. The only suggestion I might have would be to make the flavor text a little bit brighter to give it better readability. Perhaps color picking from the orange/red background to find a good color/brightness. Nice job with the warping effect on the Day 2 challenge as well!

@young karma Cool effort on Adjustment Layers. The theme works. The colors work. I would make a few suggestions. The planet seems to fade away on the lower right. Is that what you intended? With such a prominent object, I might like it more crisply defined. I would suggest a BG that gives more contrast to the black of the can. The gradient in the drink title gets a bit too dark on the top right. Perhaps ease up on that a bit. Solid effort.

@faint beacon Really solid effort. So much to like in this design, starting with the concept. The way you picked up the teal green in the can bottom and the jets adds cohesions to the whole design. The light rim around the planet is well done. I would make one small nit pick. The color of the drink name fill seems out of place. Perhaps pick up the blue from the jet trails?? Nice work with the BG also. Solid effort all around.

@shell fox Hello, are you new to the chat? If so, welcome. Let us know if you need any assistance finding your way around. We're here to help. Nice work on Challenge 1 can. The bright blue ring is well done. The basic gradient looks cool. I would make one suggestion. How about using the bright blue from the ring or the red from the planet as the fill color for the drink name? It will add some pop and some cohesion to the design. Just a thought.

#

@tired cape Wow thats an ominous drink. Cool concept and design. I would suggest a curves adjustment layer to lighten it up a bit to make the shapes a bit more visible. I would also pick a font that helps tell the story of the design, and use the teal green from the top left as a fill. Give it a shot. See if you like it. The BG is cool.

#

@young karma Am I giving away my age by saying how this design brings back long ago memories?? It combines elements form a couple of the challenges, but I think its for Adjustment Layers. Nice job embedding the planet and the ring with the character. Im not sure what the bubble on top is for. If its for the "soda" effect, I would add more of them. The BG on the can works. I would suggest you use the teal or a variaton of it of the character for the image BG to add some contrast to the black of the can. Fun effort

#

@young karma I guess you figured out what the problem was. Nice Day can. I like the color palette you used. My one tweak would be to enhance the cohesion of the design by using the blue of the planet as fill for the drink name. Nice job on the textured BG

#

@serene wave I love this pattern transform. Well done. My one suggestion is the area inside the drink name is too small for such a complex pattern. The name is illegible. Perhaps increasing the font size and decreasing the pattern size will help. Not sure. Or else try a different fill. Good job

#

@ember wave Your day 3 designs are beautiful. (Im not sure I get the story of the astronaut and the monster, though.) The monster design is well done. I would suggest increasing the cast glow from the explosion onto the monster and the rest of the to make it more visible. The dancer design is well done also. The BG you added to the can is well done. i would suggest yu change the black BG to give more contrast to the can. Nice work all around

#

@wanton furnace Cool fun concept. the juxtaposition of the calm beach scene to your GoT dragon on the can is fun. The can within the can is cool. Nice cast shadow. Fun effort

@knotty cosmos It would be helpful if you labeled your submissions so we can know which exercise it relates to. I assume the Fresh Planet is for the Adjustment Layers exercise (Day 3). The colors are great. i like the font you selected. I would suggest a couple of tweaks. I would try to give the lemon some sort of softer edge to make it less digital. I would adjust the opacity of the BG to create some contrast with the can. I would add some body to the font by using some effect on it. All in all a good effort.

Hi Kathleen, I have been following your daily challenges and I love tham, as well as your choice of blouses!!!They are awesome. So my beginners question is how do I get the tabs you have on the upper right hand side of your screen? I am referring to both. The left one has Layers/ Channels/Path/ Libraries and the right one has Color Swatches/Gradients/ Patterns. I would like to organize them like that but not sure how to go about it. Thanks.

eternal mica Jun 27, 2021, 1:27 AM

#

@young karma Very well done Adjustment Layers exercise. The astronaut in the astronaut in the astronaut is really cool. I especially like how you connected the umbilical cord to the astronaut on the can. I would suggest picking up the mauve color from the BG and adding it the drink text to add some cohesiveness to the image. I would also work on shadows for the can to make it look less digital, as if it was just pasted on. Strong effort

#

@frigid lotus cool work on the Transform checkerboard. The gradients also look good. My one tweak would be to make the drink name text a lot larger.

#

@misty prism Very cool concept on your Adjustment Layers. The way you treated the eye image is great. My one suggestion would be to create contrast for the can by working on the BG. The black of the can seems to just fade away into the black BG. Good efffort.

@ornate spoke You gotta go easy on me. Im new at mentoring. You changed your name on me!!! I got confused who's work I was looking at!!! 🤣 🤣 Cool effort with Adjustment Layers. I think Ive heard the phrase "Purple Rain" somewhere. (JK) Great job masking all the layers into one cohesive image. The coloration really works well. Theres a hint in your image that the person is shining a light into the sky that is opening up hole in the sky to another dimension. I love it. The BG you placed the can into really works. One little nit pick I would make is too add some perspective to the can by adding a shadow to the can, maybe coming from the light at the top right front.

#

@latent loom Hey, are you new to the DCC and the Discord chat? If so, welcome. Cool effort with the Transform can. The gradient looks so "green apple". I would suggest two things; make the drink name font a bit larger; give some thought to your BG/can bottom, to create some contrast between the black of the can bottom and the black BG. (Let me know if youre new.)

#

@candid chasm Your Adjustment Layers is beautiful. The depth you added with the blurred out flowers works really well. Do you think a flower behind the can would add more depth? I love the "cotton candy" colors, and the random shapes. I think you would take it to the next level if you added some perspective to the can itself with either a shadow or blurred edges. Great effort.

#

@candid chasm My bad, I just realized you posted 3 in a series. Your watermelon seed transform works well. Actually, I think my comment above fits the three. In fact the BG on Day 1 and Day 2 enforce what I wrote above Day 3. I cant wait to see how you use the series concept going forward.

#

@sinful robin Nice work on the Adjustment Layers. I would make two suggestions: I suggest would suggest working with a different BG than the stark white; I would add cohesion to the overall design by picking a color from the design to be the drink name text fill.

#

@forest aspen Four really terrific submissions. The way you used the color gradient and the text outlines in the cover is well done. Each of your can submissions is great. I especially like the way you handled the BG to create the effect of the cans sitting on a shiny surface, and then adding reflections to the surfaces. That adds realism to the images. The colors you added to the BG are spot on for each image. Im not sure Im correct about this, the one nit pick I would point out is that if you added rim light to the cans for the light coming from the rear. it would really add another dose of realism. Let me know if you agree. Excellent effort.

#

@autumn granite Good job with the Clipping Masks exercise. Nice strong message. My one suggestion would be to make the drink name text a bit more bold. It looks a bit too "shy" for your design. I would break it into two lines, than play with the size and the fill. Also, dont be limited to the lower 1/3 of the can. How about the first word on the yellow BG and the second word on the blue?? Just a thought.

#

@sinful robin On your Clipping Masks, you did a good job with the main focus of the exercise. The B looks good. I would say the same thing I said above about the white BG. I would make a similar comment in reverse on the can, suggesting contrast between the B and the dark blue of the can color.

#

@keen sinew Hey, are you new to the DCC and Discord? If you are, let me know. Nice effort on the Clipping Mask exercise. The multiple fill patterns look good. I like the drop shadow on the letter. And the shifting gradients work nicely. Solid effort.

#

@lucid plover Very interesting effort on the Clipping Masks. My suggestion would be to soften up the edges of the merged images in a number of places, e.g. the flower wreath on the right sided face image. Also, Im not sure if you intended the broken face on the left to have the boxes have such sharp edges. You may have wanted that. Last point, I think the 2 noses on the left face is too distracting. But thats just me. Let me know what you think.

@elfin thorn I like your Clipping masks effort. You handled the blended images well. And the BG adds a sense of motion to the image. I would make one suggestion. How about trying a stroke/drop shadow on the S? I think it will make your image POP. Nice effort.

@dusty karma I love the colors in your Clipping mask design. The designs in the BG add nice perspective. You did a very nice job with the multiple patterns and color layers in your K. I would nit pick one thing, by lowering the brightness of the BG to enhance the contrast to the can.

#

@queen aspen Very well done Clipping Masks exercise. The way you blended all those patterns is well done. I like the way you have the bubbles throughout to add cohesion to the image. I would make one suggestion. I would increase the depth of the drop shadow. But thats just personal preference. Your image/Your decision.

#

@dusky wave Solid effort on the Clipping Masks. Your designs on top and on bottom really work well. And I like the colors you used. I would suggest one tweak. Id work on the drink text font. I think its too compressed to read easily.

@wispy compass Your Clipping Mask exercise is well done. I like the color palette. You handled the clipped patterns well. The small stroke/drop shadow you have around the text works well. And the ship adds a lot to the overall design.

Hey everybody, a little late but I made a nautical themed can for todays project :))))

@compact pecan Your Lava design is right on. The merged letters is a nice effect. And I like that you used 2 different bold clear fonts for your design. My one nit pick is that the 16 fl oz is completely lost. I would rethink how I presented that part of the design. Solid effort, my friend.

#

@ornate spoke I love your Clipping Mask design. It has such an exciting vibe. All the images were blended nicely. All the shades of blue work so well together. That little body in the sea of blue is a real eye catching effect. The work you did on the base design is solid. The shadow on the O really helps. The shadow on the can is also well done. I have one question. Would it help the image if all the BG layers were the same? ( You have the can showing on one of them, but not the others.) Im not sure. Just wondering out loud. Good job.

#

@forest aspen Your Clipping Mask design fits so well with the other designs you created. The work you did in the M looks awesome. Here again your gradient BG is spot on. Keep it up.

#

@vague swift Nice design. (Im assuming Red Eye can was for Adjustment Layers exercise.) I would make two suggestions: add some depth to the can to eliminate the digital look that it was just pasted in there; give your BG image a red tone to add some cohesion to the design. Good effort.

#

@severe ice Haha, so fun. Your Day 1 cartoon interpretation is so cool. Cartoon shapes is not my strong point, (assuming I have a strong point) so I may be all wet about this. Would it help sell the characters if they had shadows? One tweak Id suggest is to try blurring the BG a bit to make the contrast with the can a bit more distinct. Fun effort.

@gaunt wagon Well done on your Adjustment Layers and Clipping Mask. I especially like the B in your Day 4. All the different patterns work well. And the drop shadow adds nice depth. Your designs have a nice flow to them. Good job.

#

@severe ice Haha, Your Transform exercise is well done. Youre the second person who decided to take me back to my Space Invaders stage of life!!! The gradient you used matches with the colors in your characters. I like the cohesion you added by using the magenta as text fill. In your Adjustment Layers exercise I would suggest blurring the edges of the images a bit. The smoke on the left and the rocket seem a bit too cut out. It seems youre using the same BG for all your images. Im curious to see how that plays out over the nine exercises.

@knotty cosmos Your Clipping Masks design is well done. All of the patterns in the text work very nicely together. Yellow in the text and in the drop shadow create a nice combination. Your redesign of the can design is a good idea. It came out well. I would make one small nit pick. The stroke around the drink name is getting lost. Perhaps use the yellow from the top letters instead of black for the bottom letters. It might add to the cohesion of the design.

@faint beacon Your Clipping Mask exercise is well done. All of the designs you embedded in the text look great. The drop shadow also works. Good effort.

#

@grave moss Your photography continues to intrigue me. The way you used it in your Clipping Mask exercise is great. I like the glow around the diver. The masked images in the M are well done. The blue in the M connects the can to the BG image. I like the subtle red drop shadow of the M offset against the red gradient of the can BG. This may sound counter to what I said at first, but I think the BG should be blurred a bit. Just enough to keep the focus on the can. I cant wait to see more of your underwater photography.

#

@young karma There is no requirement that you use "cans" in your projects. Its merely Kathleen's suggestion. You did a good job masking your images. I would make one suggestion. Add a stroke/drop shadow to the top text. Your embedded images are running off into the BG. Just a question .... whats the story youre trying to tell with the golf ball picture on the bottom? Im missing that.

@young karma Welcome to our group. We're happy you decided to join. Take your time. This DCC runs all of next week and then will be on replay for the two weeks following. If you have any questions or need any help, just let us know. Your first design is cool. You did a good job with the rings and the planet. The astronaut is a cool touch. Good effort.

#

@vagrant rapids Wow, I love your clipping mask design. The way you treated the D is awesome. The patterns are done well. The pink hearts are a nice touch. The emboss throughout works great. The stroke on the bottom shape is a cool touch. And your BG adds so much to the design without overpowering. Ok, can I have one tweak??? To add more perspective to the design, I would love to see you add more of the shadow you have at the base of the can along the sides. What do you think?

#

@deep mango Very well done with your Clipping Masks exercise. The patterns you clipped in, the red shading, and the yellow drop shadow all work well together. Nice job with the occlusion shadow on the bottom of the can. strong effort all around.

#

@sand light It looks like youre new to the DCC/Discord chat. If so, welcome. If you need help finding your way around or figuring things out, just let me know. Good effort on your Day 1 effort. I would make one suggestion, blur the edges of the ellipse shape. It looks a bit to digital. Nice job.

#

@uneven kindle I apologize. Which exercise is your Fresh Cherry Juice design for?

#

@buoyant nova Hey Susan. How are you??? Can you believe they got me mentoring??? Your Transform design is well done. The gradient and the pattern work well together. The font also looks good. I would make one suggestion. I would work with the BG to create more contrast between it and the black can bottom. Nice effort.

#

@shrewd crane Very creative design. Did you draw the objects? The design pops. The can BG adds a lot to the design without overpowering it. I would make two suggestions.
I like the bubbles you have on the bottom. How about adding some to the top to visually connect the two sections. And I think the font of the drink name is a bit too formal for such a fun design. What do you think?

I like the second version a bit better. The soft blurred rainbow is a nice touch. I would make a couple of tweaks. I would look to increase the contrast between the can and the BG and I would make the drink name font a bit easier to read. Perhaps increase the font, change the fill color to something brighter. What do you think?

#

#

@safe flint Very well done Transform can. Your design has a nice glow to it. The coloration is terrific. The stroke around the fruit is a good touch. I like the way you handled the drink name text. Strong effort.

#

@muted quail Nice job with the Clipping Mask exercise. The design has a "cool' feel to it. The patterns you added have enough difference to make them interesting. well done.

#

@earnest forge To change the fill on any text, either highlight that layer than go to the properties panel or go to that text layer and double click the T icon. In either case you will see a color box for that text. Just click on that box and the color selection window will appear. Good start with your Day 1. The BG you added works. You did a good job with the rings. I definitely agree to change the font color. I might also think about changing the font. The one you have looks a bit formal for a drink name. But I guess I'd wait until I changed the color to decide.

I used thin type for the risk. Here I have variations of the same After Race concept. I used stroke and shapes behind bottom part of the type. Which one is better? And on top right I integrated my Ai design done for the challenge on Russian Avantgarde. Except the pink art flag should be darkened as it is not so clear. (I noticed after discord).To me it looks good.

The same concept with shapes behind like a pub shade, which shows the direction or movement and a stable foundation under. I understand that here the main point of the challenge is the type and clipping patterns to it.

@ornate spoke the format is like TIFF, PSD and JPG. These are the type of files, the format of the image. For example you want to print a piece of work you created you would need to save in Jpg format- if your taken a photo in camera and want to save as a photoshop document then the format would be PSD (in camera you can choose raw data or jpg- jpg is a smaller size of the raw image- already processed and losing detail in highlights and shadows if shot in jpg. Basically a compression of data- smaller then the other formats.

@daring lantern I see this is your first post. Are you new to the DCC/Discord process? If so, let me know. Im not sure which day's challenge you posted this design for. Its a clean crisp design. The colors work well together. Nice job.

#

@woven crypt Welcome to the DCC/Discord group. If you need any help figuring things out or finding your way around, just give a shout out. We're here to help. Interesting design. The purple and black work well together. One tweak I would suggest to add pop to the design is you play with the BG, so there is more contrast between the can and the BG.

#

@woven crypt ooops, I see you posted a V2. The clipping mask is well done. I like the drop shadow picking up the color from the bottom of the can. That adds cohesion to the design, as do the dots. I would suggest you go one step further and change the fill color on all of the bottom text layers to be the purple from clip design. What do you think?

@gilded blaze Very nice work on all the posts. The texture you add to the cover text is a good touch. The colors and the BG all work well together. The planet and ring on Day 1 give a nice contrast to the can BG you created. I really like your Day 2 Transform. The way you worked the green and yellow to match the fruit colors is a cool touch. One tweak Id make to the fruits in both images is to add a shadow to the image to make it look less digital, pasted on. Another tweak I would make to all the designs is to play with the text. Maybe break up the drink names into several lines and even different fonts. Draw attention to one part of the name. I would also suggest a different fill color, one that adds to the cohesion of the designs. Good work. Keep them coming!!!

#

@chilly hawk Good effort on Shapes challenge. Im not sure if some of the ring is showing through the back of the planet or not. Its hard to tell with color of the ring matching the planet. Adding the line art astronaut definitely adds interest. I would suggest, for more cohesion in the design, the drink text be one color. Good work.

#

@copper moss I like the soft pastel shapes you added in the lower left design best of all.

#

@serene wave Nice design for the Clipping Mask. The drop shadows/strokes you added to the M work well. A few areas of the clip need some adjustments. I think you need to scale the green/black pattern up to eliminate the white edges that are showing. The top and bottom patterns are protruding from the letter. You might want to check that those patterns are clipped properly.

Thank you @eternal mica ....I appreciate the feedback ! 😀 I changed it a million times and I think I finally decided with this image....but now I think I would make changes.

No I appreciate your feedback for both versions! I’m looking at my v2 and I think you have a point. Is it because the brown color in “dirty water” makes the text compete a bit with the name of the drink?

eternal mica Jun 27, 2021, 6:29 PM

#

@woven crypt More than that, the fill color looks washed out. Also, it doesn't fit the color theme of the design. I believe if you try my suggestion you'll see the difference.

Thanks to Ted I was able to change the color on the text and change the font. Still having trouble downloading the Beastly Font, so this one will have to do. So excited to be able to steal time away from time to do this.

#

@buoyant nova Nice job on the Adjustment Layers. thhe BG you added adds cohesion to the design. Changing the can color to orange is also a nice touch. One tweak Id suggest is to blur the edges of the smoke. Theyre a bit too digital. But thats just me. A lot of the submissions seem to have it your way.

#

@short mica I like your take on moving the rocket around and the angle of the smoke cloud. I like the can color. I would suggest a bit of blur on the edge of the smoke cloud and to increase the size of the rocket. What do you think?

@frosty monolith Nice effort with the Transform can. The checkerboard perspective was handled well. Given that it was 2:00AM and you were exhausted, Im not surprised the patterns dont align. Its hard enough to accomplish with a fresh eye. I would suggest you get the four perspective patterns to align themselves. Make one, then ctrl J to duplicate and ctrl T to realign. Presently, there are differing sized gaps between the layers.

@candid chasm Your Day 4 Clipping mask is awesome. The combination of picture and line art is so creative. I had to do a double and triple take to appreciate all the elements. I especially liked the way you used the green outline for the leaves. You also did a great job incorporating into this design the elements you picked up along the way in the first three of your series (blurred leaves and BG). Excellent work. 💯

@chilly hawk Your Transform design is great. I can taste the strawberry juice. you worked the transform pattern beautifully. Picking up the green/red of the strawberries in the text gives the design nice cohesion. I would offer one (very) small nitpick. I believe you can add perspective and a sense of realism by adding shadows to the strawberries and to the drops of juice you have popping out of the liquid. Super effort.💯

@solar frost Welcome. Youve found a great place to meet creatives, learn Ps, grow your skills, and have a lot of fun. If you have any questions or need help finding your way around, give a shout out. We're here to help. The group of cans is well done. Your Shapes can is neat. The way you altered the lower shape adds a nice sense of movement to the design. I would make two suggestions: A bolder color fill for the drink name text (I would suggest this for all 3 cans) and I would work on a BG to add contrast to the can. Your Transform can is great. The way you warped the text is really powerful. I like this font best. How about trying this can with red text fill? Your last can looks like it could be Adjustment Layers and Clipping Masks combined. Same comments as for the other two. I hope you keep posting.

#

@earnest forge Aha, I see youve solved the fonts mystery!! Good for you!!! Your Adjustments Layer effort is terrific. Such a fun image. I would make one suggestion. The black stroke on the drink name is washed away into the black can BG. How about maybe a plain white stroke to bring the top design into the lower third? Your Clipping Mask design is beautiful. Great color palette. The stroke works well throughout. I small correction, the top right of the white square needs to be cleaned up. How about adding the same stroke from your text to the bottom can shape? Really solid work.

#

@tawny badge Im assuming this is for the Clipping Mask challenge. Good work on the clip inside the G. I like the way you handled the stroke and the drop shadow. Using the purple color for the drink text name fill adds cohesion to the design. One suggestion Id make is to see how you like the design without the drop shadow around the drink name. That doesn't seem to be working. Good effort.

#

@chilly hawk Nice work on the Adjustment Layer. The way you embedded the berries in the smoke is a very cool effect. Well done. The blurred edge to the lower shape is cool. Ive suggested to some other folks, I think blurring the edge of the smoke clouds to add realism would be a nice touch. Strong effort.

Hello, how do you get rid of the Adobe watermark?

eternal mica Jun 28, 2021, 6:24 PM

#

@glacial minnow Very well done day 1 Shapes can. I like the stark white lines against the dark BG. And I like the blue planet color being used in the text fill to add cohesion to the design. My one suggestion would be to see what the can would look like on a BG of a different color. Strong effort.

#

@short mica Very nice job on the Clipping Mask design. The way you handled the clipped patterns makes the W very interesting. The stroke and drop shadow also work well. The drink name type is a little lost. I might make it a bit more prominent. I would suggest one thing, and that is to try a different BG color so the black can can be contrasted more against the black BG.

@keen sinew Very cool second effort. I dont know if you intended this on your revision, but how would it look if the star belt from the BG were carried straight into the can design? Having it so close, but not exact seems a bit distracting.

#

@buoyant nova Watermelons are taking over the world!!!! I like how you flipped the can color and shape color. Your W is very well done. Very fun font. I'd still suggest a BG other than black.

#

@safe flint Very nicely done Clipping mask. Your color theme is great. The patterns you clipped into the C are so cool, as are the red color blocks. i like the way you picked up the stroke color in the drink name text to add cohesion to the design. Strong effort.

@thorn glen Welcome to the chat. Is this our first DCC/Discord experience? If it is, please let me know. Thanks for submitting your work. I think the planet looks good. Your effort to blur the ring gets lost as it passes over the planet. If you want that blur effect, why not try a different color? One other suggestion, I would try a different color fill for the drink text. Try a color that can be more cohesive to the overall design. I look forward to your next designs.

My take on the DCC.

copper moss Jun 28, 2021, 6:54 PM

#

Challenge #05: Effects and color. Paranoid Pineapple. I draw additional wind effect by Line tool. Light reflection is on the way of iris. I will manage later to remove it.

@dusky wave Very cute design for today's DCC. The design definitely tells a happy story. I would make one suggestion, why not add to the happiness with a BG that picks up the can design?

#

@keen sinew I agree, thats a scary brew!!! If it werent for the pineapple image I would think that design was off a hot sauce bottle. The design is "on fire". Your use of the gradient is spot on. The fire edges on the pineapple leaves is well done. Wanna try something??? Add 2 black devilish eyes to the pineapple just under the eyebrows, end up with a really monster looking image. Let me know what you think.

@median frost It took me a few moments to write this. I had to stop laughing. Your image is adorable!!!! Adding the ring from earlier DCC is so cool. The color palette is wild. It looks like you added perspective to the drink name. Did you? If you did, well done. Your BG is awesome. It adds motion to the whole design and definitely got me dizzy!!! Love the effort.

@autumn granite Many times when someone submits a revision I go back to the original and look at the 2 side by side. Did you do that here? I think this one is a much stronger design than the first version. Im curious what you think.

@severe ice ha, more watermelon!!! Your 3D watermelon seeds are awesome. I love your W font, and the way off set it with drop shadow. The white text fill drink name adds a lot of cohesion to the design. The BG is just subtle enough to add with out distracting. One tiny nit pick??? The lower right black part of the W gets lost into the BG. Maybe a curves adjustment to the W to increase the contrast to make this more visible. Love the effort.

#

@buoyant nova Everyone really has me chuckling at these pineapple designs. Your gradient BG really brings the design together. The wind blur you added works great. The eyebrows is a fun touch. If I had to critique one thing, Id say maybe a different BM, or a lower opacity, on the red face to have a bit more of the pineapple texture show through. But thats a tiny tiny nit pick. Very well done.

eternal mica Jun 28, 2021, 7:42 PM

#

@autumn granite I love it. Start off with the color palette. You flipped the black on its ear, and made it work. Using the green just for the pineapple face makes it clearly the focal point, and rightly so. The ice blue is eye grabbing. Your wind blur is right on, especially adding it to the NUCLEAR text. If I had to make one nit pick, I would change the shade of the pineapple text fill. Maybe a bit more contrast from the shape fill blue?? What do you think?

#

@copper moss Good effort on today's exercise. You did a good job with the wind blur effect. I like the colors you used. Im not sure what the white object at the top of the eye is. You might want to try using a BM on the eye layer to see if you can get that layer to blend with the pineapple texture underneath. It might create some really interesting results, or it might look weird. But its worth it to play with it. Thats the fun of Ps.

#

@bold valley Nice job with today's exercise. Your drinks add nice color and focal point to the image. You did a good job with the wind blur. I like that you added it to the drink name text too.

@pliant comet Really cool image, I like the deep moody look of the colors of the wave. I kind of feel like it might push that feeling even more if you made the text a dark blue from inside the wave (where the light area meets the dark area) since it's on top of a light background. Nice job!

#

@compact pecan Loving it, great effect! The bright blue color creates some really nice color temperature contrast to balance out the rest of the design. Looks good!

#

@young karma Oooh, that's a very dramatic design name and design, hah. I really like the double exposure effect in the alien head, and the colors overall give the design a very interesting look. Nicely done!

#

@short mica Nice job with the effect on the strawberries. It could be nice to see a bit of that on the green leafy part as well to make the effect really clear, but that's a minor detail. The colors read very well together too, nice work!

#

@elfin thorn Cool design and color gradients on this one! The colors definitely give it a bold look and I like the addition of the graphic smiley face. The final mockup looks great too with the enhanced contrast and addition of the water droplets. Very nice work!

@copper moss Very nice execution on this Day 5 challenge! The colors and textures within the pineapple make for a really eye catching effect and the dripping/lines effect add even more interest. The name seems very fitting too, hah. Well done!

#

@muted quail Cool colors and nice work on the effect! Though I think you could push it even further to make it a bit more obvious and intentional looking. I like the background texture too!

#

@wispy compass Interesting take on this challenge! I like the sort of illustrated look you got with this one and the way the red from the background image is mirrored in the text. Nice job 👍

#

@autumn granite Great colors and style to this Day 5 challenge! Loving the colors in the Arizona can too, really nice balance and great double exposure effect with the A. I wonder if making Nuclear in the latest design the same color of the green of the pineapple might give it a bit more clear read against the similarly colors background, and perhaps be a nice way to repeat that green color elsewhere in the design? Either way these are both looking really solid!

#

@eternal mica Really cool take on this challenge! I like the energy and sense of motion this seems to give the pomegranates. The colors add a nice bold look too and I like the retro style title font. I wonder if repeating the green from the bottom shape up top in the stroke of the red "pomegranate juice" text might make for some nice balance. Looks good!

#

@thorn geyser Super cool effect! I really like the colored shapes on either side of the pineapple. Those colors along with the text definitely give it a sort of neon/party type of vibe which works well. I wonder if Party Pineapple might sound more like a drink and less like an event? Hah, that might just be me. I like the addition of the colored top and bottom of the can. Well done!

@vagrant rapids I think the upward effect works really well for this design! The addition of the background lines add a lot of interest too. I really love the colors in this design, and the balance between the white shape at the bottom with the dark text works really well. Background looks great too!

#

@buoyant nova Very cool! I like the color balance between the top and bottom of this design. The watermelon pattern in the W looks great and the background adds a lot of interest. Just make sure the lighting effect from the can mockup turns along with the can since right now it's still vertical. Looks good!

#

@glacial minnow Great balance between the color of the center logo and the background! It unifies the two elements nicely and contrasts the dark can very well. Definitely an improvement from the previous version in my opinion. I really like the look of your center logo design as well, very nicely done!

#

@solar frost Cool to hear you tried a new technique for this design! I really like the color contrast and textures in this design. As far as the Refine Edge Brush Tool goes, I typically use that for things like hair and complex/soft edges. For hard edged things like a saxophone I would usually use the Quick Selection tool and perhaps go into Select and mask if I needed a bit more control.

#

@plain sable Really cool effect with the seeds! Nice job with the masking of all those elements. I like all the colors you got with that effect. Nice work!

#

@grave moss Really neat, loving the colors and sort of electric look of the jellyfish! The background adds some nice interest as well. Perhaps the jellyfish could be a bit brighter overall to balance out the brightness of the bottom green/blue shape? Looks good!

#

@ornate spoke Really cool combination of shapes and colors on this Day 5 design! The effect turned out nicely and I like the contrast it creates on the dark background. The balance between the red text and flowers is a cool effect as well!

#

@bold valley The effect came out nicely and I like how you mirrored it in the flavor text. The color contrast looks good too, though perhaps repeating the orange from the drink into the text could look good and balance out the colors a bit? It could even be nice to see the drink images a bit larger to give them a stronger visual impact. Nicely done!

#

@forest aspen Really nice work, I like the style of this design. The diagonal placement of everything works really well, and the way you used color and patterns gives the whole thing some nice interest. The sort of caustic looking texture is a really nice touch too!

#

@severe ice Really cool color balance in this Day 4 design! Very simple, clean, and readable. The stroke on the W is a nice touch to make it more readable against the dark background. The seed texture and background stars add a lot of interest. Nice job!
