That's how we get in this district within the storage facility hehe 😁

[raw wadi]

The warehouse seems a bit dusty 🙂

[crude rose]

It is, it's been here for years, there's a faint light source from what looks like an opening or vent in the ceiling, casting beams of light.

The space is filled with numerous metal storage units of varying shapes and sizes, stacked haphazardly beside powered down metal machines, all you can hear is the electricity buzzing from them, suggesting they've been abandoned for quite some time..

Some have markings or labels on them, suggesting organization within this place..

[crude rose]

GASP WHAT DID YOU DO TO THE QUALITY

can you make it look shadowy? dark and gloomy all around?

WITH QUALITY IF THATS POSSIBLE

🤭

🤌

[raw wadi]

It was just a suggestion done quickly. Easy to do with a reflected gradient with transparency. For dark and gloomy invert the selection and adjust. Have a try 🙂

[crude rose]

PERFECT THANK YOUUU

Oops, forgot to say I added a blur to the layer mask on the gradient

[cosmic brook]

I like the concept of presenting the plant in full, vibrant color while the background image is toned back. I think that's effective. A few suggestions to tidy up the design a bit:

1. The placements of the "Birthright" logo and the name of the plant feel a little arbitrary and at odds with the rest of the layout. I would center the logo over the text.
2. The image should be more important than the name of the plant. I would move the image up and put the name below the plant, and center it with the image.
3. Consider dropping the word "balance" to the bottom line so that the bottom line of text is not so short.

The white text on the busy background is hard to read. Consider darkening the background behind the text.

[toxic dome]

ok bro

[ionic stone]

I am sorry, I will post less items.

[abstract oxide]

A couple of suggestions…

• Remove the white line surrounding the pile of money.
• Remove the fade where the pile of money meets the logo and bags. Have a hard cutout around the actual borders of the wads of cash.

[compact pendant]

i made this silly thing

[abstract oxide]

Looks cool. Nice work.

[abstract oxide]

I recommend brightening the cat so its highlights better match those of the shirt.
I would possibly also bring down the highlight a touch on the collar.

[toxic dome]

any feedbacks?

i make an edit on it

[abstract oxide]

Looks good.
Personally I would do something where the Facebook ball meets the hand. Perhaps a blue glow on the hand if the ball is a light source. Or perhaps a little shadow where the two meet if the ball is a solid object.

[abstract oxide]

The non-smooth outline of the head needs some clean up

[abstract oxide]

You did a great job cutting out the hair.
You need to do a little more clean up around the hands.

[normal spoke]

The hands looking backwards and kind of odd position. maybe try to integrate some more details.

[wooden oak]

Please stop posting the same images repeatedly.

[proven wharf]

Really good for kids, you did this all in photoshop?

[icy depot]

I use photoshop to design/draw everything ,after effects to animate and premiere pro to put it all together

im trying to aim for all audiences

[proven wharf]

Its really cool, i see many similar channels doing this getting tons of views because they put it on repeat for kids (cause parents know better than to keep them scrolling)

You should explore some AI voiceovers, those ones that sound full of enthusiasm (not saying your voice is bad) its just used a lot for these type of videos, it just somehow fits in way more better

[proven wharf]

There is potential if you aim at a younger audience, trust me

[icy depot]

Not disagreeing but i want to cover more complicated topics

Im just holding back for a bit since i wanna put some "easier" videos first

[proven wharf]

I see, do you script write these things yourself from scratch?

[icy depot]

Yes everything

[proven wharf]

Well done man

[icy depot]

Appreciate it ❤️ ,its only gonna improve

[proven wharf]

No problem, remember dont throw everything on your own head because it might get too much at times, use the tools that is available to you to make your life easier.

[icy depot]

What tools could those be? I dont see AI voiceovers being the way to go

[proven wharf]

how long did it take to make the entire video btw

[icy depot]

It does take a while ,since i didnt know neither photoshop nor after effects at the beginning

[proven wharf]

you can use chatgpt to find interesting facts for ants for example, create scripts for it, there is many tools other than AI of course.

[proven wharf]

I see :0

[icy depot]

ChatGPT doesnt sound like a bad idea for interesting facts

I do prefer to create the script myself since im imagining all the animating when im writing

[proven wharf]

niceee

Well all the best to you!!

[wet pumice]

do you think this brand will be sucessful with this design?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/548246314383835146/1289635745736294462/image.png?ex=66f98a62&is=66f838e2&hm=f4c20fb81a67e4b6638005c8f47b89a328f80d9863f902f7ab00b300d83379b5&
What can I improve?

[wooden oak]

So I know it says, "Sniper" there but is that supposed to be some sort of gun in the angel's left hand? It doesn't really look like a gun. Shouldn't it be more like a sniper rifle given that you use the word Sniper there? Also, on a more philosophical note, why does an angel need a rifle? I'm not really sure I get the connection or the intent of this.

[wet pumice]

The text is not the point

I want to know what I can improve

[wooden oak]

The text is not the point... It takes up a large portion of the design. Also, I've already mentioned a few things. First off, that doesn't really look like a gun he's holding. The text outlines are covering portions of the guys face which looks a bit odd to me. You've also asked "will this brand be successful" to which I replied, "I'm not really sure I get the point of the design given that its an angel holding a gun."

Furthermore, what's in the other hand? Is that a book? If these objects are important to the design, then I would suggest rendering them with more clarity so that people don't struggle to understand what the items are.

Also, "Jesus with a sniper... tough"... Is that a typo because grammatically that doesn't make sense either.

Lastly, Jesus isn't really depicted with angel's wings because he's not an angel (according to Christian dogma) so that's a bit off as well.

[wet pumice]

Idk I think it looks good

But other then Jesus the design is good?

[wooden oak]

The design doesn't really make a lot of sense. Sorry.

[wet pumice]

If I would replace the text end everything

[wet pumice]

Don't mind the sense I'll fix it but the design it self have potential?

[wooden oak]

I don't know.

I probably wouldn't be a customer.

[wet pumice]

I'm looking for the perfect design

Of you have a good idea I'ld love to here it

[wooden oak]

Its one thing to make an angel with wings and a rifle. To make it "Jesus" with wings and rifle doesn't make sense. Neither does the text "Jesus with a Sniper. Tough" And then put heart icons on the other side. The entire thing seems confused.

[wooden oak]

If I have a good idea for what? That type of shirt? What is the purpose of this? What is the goal? To sell t-shirts?

[wet pumice]

yea

[wooden oak]

If I were trying to sell t-shirts with Jesus on it, I would just make it "Jesus" without the gun and without the other nonsense. It would probably sell more. You go putting Jesus on a shirt with angel's wings, a gun and the word "Sniper" (multiple times) and it doesn't make any sense.

[wet pumice]

but its kinda boring just jesus without anything

so do you have any other idea for a shirt desgin?

[wooden oak]

Just make it an angel. Why bother confusing the issue by using Jesus given the reasons I've already mentioned.

[wet pumice]

so you do like the idea

[wooden oak]

No. Not really. I wouldn't wear a shirt with an angel holding a gun but maybe someone would.

[wet pumice]

And if he was without?

If you even don't like the idea of the design I'll love to here your ideas

Bec for now the problem to me is the ideas

[wooden oak]

Please don't ping me. When I have time to answer, I will answer.

I really have no ideas on what t-shirt would sell. You have to find a topic/design that a lot of people would like and would want to wear. Honestly, I think a t-shirt that said "COFFEE!!!" would sell more than a Jesus-Angel Sniper holding a blob that doesn't really look like a gun.

[wet pumice]

Sorry

So I'll do couple of designs and send to you

Ok?

I'll try to change the design I already did a bit

[wooden oak]

No. Don't send them to me directly or ping me. Just do your design and post it here for feedback. Other people might have ideas for you as well.

[wet pumice]

Ok

So if someone sees this massage pls send me ideas

[jolly yew]

https://www.instagram.com/p/DAeCGOxMd4j/

[wet pumice]

what do you think?

[wooden oak]

Looks good. However, you can't really sell t-shirts with someone else's face, logo and intellectual property on it. Kobe Bryant's estate and the Lakers would likely take issue with that.

Good luck with it.

[wet pumice]

But you know it's kobe bryant I'm not the first one that uses he's face

People sell his face

[wooden oak]

OK. Consult an attorney. Good luck.

[wet pumice]

anything i could improve on?

oh wait

i see something

[hot rain]

Need feedback please .

[gentle horizon]

I find the green edges of the oranges distracting.
There is a grey line at the top right - is that intentional?
A small shadow border in front of the mint leaves could create some depth.

[hot rain]

and otherwise good ?

[gentle horizon]

If you add different orange slices instead of duplicates of a single slice, then yes.

[hot rain]

ohh yess thats a big mistake ig

i am new to ps tho

[gentle horizon]

This is a very good and convincing result for a beginner. Keep up the good work!
👍

[hot rain]

Yes sirrrr

[cosmic brook]

I assume you are saying that graphic design is fun, but the word order reads, “graphic is fun design“.

[crystal smelt]

i feel is more unique to put it in a non linear order

[cosmic brook]

It is definitely more unique, and if you are making an art piece, that is fine :). But graphic design is about effective communication. If your goal is to become a successful graphic designer, strive to make your communication clear and precise.

[normal spoke]

Great work. maybe try not to "cut" Text and People (faces) that disturbs the design/Image to much. maybe place that colored line thing more to the bottom or in the background.

You need to add a file extension on the end of the file. If you're exporting the image to PNG, save it with .png on the end of the filename.

Garbage burger? Lol.

It is nice done.

🤣 lol

[wooden oak]

I'm not sure the burger would stay assembled if someone threw it in the water. The parts would all be floating around on their own.

[plush rose]

okay

feedback please !

[normal spoke]

I like the Design and the vibe. The Text is a bit overcrowded and not consistant (some text in front, some in the back). also not sure why there are so many can's in different sizes in the Image. Maybe try the one big can and then some people doing some wintersport and drinking a Pepsi or so. Just a quick reminder that since this features a brand name and logo, it is certainly not being published in any kind as advertising and is of course for training purposes only.

My Tipp for using some branding: use Adobe Firefly, Adobe express or any other AI based tool to make your own brand to work with. have fun.

For a clothing design contest. Any feedback on the design? (The text and the blue stains, not the mockup or background)

What should I add/change/remove to the design?

[abstract oxide]

Looks really good. If you want to sell the grunge look perhaps drop the saturation and/or brightness of the text near the top.

[abstract oxide]

Looks fantastic. Great work.

[abstract oxide]

Getting super picky here... The thin, sharp, black line around the photos seems slightly out of place to me.

[abstract oxide]

Really good work. Your tone and colour choices are excellent.

[lean charm]

What do you mean by they?

[lean charm]

Actually after taking another look, i find that the tree looks too big and out of place since I'm planning to add actors to the poster and it would be too small

What should i do? Feeling stuck right now

[normal spoke]

The idea/design I find very good. But I think back in the days they did not use so many different Textfonts and also the Text looks a bit to "clean". Also Image and Text would not overlay. That looks a bit inconsistant. But the Layout overall looks good.

[normal spoke]

Very Nice. maybe try not to place random things like an Astronaut floating in the sky or other thinks. The Text at the bottom should not be distracted and clearl readable. Also try maybe that the "Face" s a bit more visible. maybe some Light or a read-ish eye glow or something like that. Have fun.

[abstract oxide]

When I said "they" I was referring to the people who would have been making such things "back in the day".

What about this one ?

[ripe canopy]

you used 3 fonts here?

[lapis python]

Yes

[ripe canopy]

when im doing typography i use 2 fonts but boldness is important

so

if lets drink smoothie has the same font

box of text and stay tuned could have the same but box can have "light" and stay tuned "bold"

to make contrast

its mainly typography rules

font poppins is free for commercial use and has a lot of type of boldness

btw Ilike your style

[lapis python]

Thank you for your advise, much appreciated

[ripe canopy]

not a problem 😅

but remember that 3 fonts are allowed

but I would make it with more text like newspaper

to make more contrast but its kinda difficult to match fonts right

[lapis python]

this one ?

its a food wrapping paper

[ripe canopy]

it looks good in typography - main text is bigger small text is readable i see its old style- i would try check if serif font would match better for box texts like Times New Roman but its not necessary

it has 3 fonts but these are placed really well

I would make it in illustrator btw

or indesign

[raw wadi]

Here's a controversial thought. A lot of food wrapping gets thrown away. (particularly tourists coming to see the tooth!)
You could add a note asking people to dispose of it thoughtfully.
You could also add details of how to find Cafe Serenity.
The two notes together would help sales and suggest they are environmentally conscientious 🙂

didn't you recently ask about the sand? Looks like you changed it?

[short hamlet]

I did yeah, I ended up simulating it in houdini

[bold peak]

looks better (the sand) tbh the background seems over exposed or just really bright

[short hamlet]

true, its quite bright, I'll work on that

[jolly yew]

[abstract oxide]

Has the creature only just popped out through the sand? If so, I would expect to see a lot more sand kicked into the air.

[abstract oxide]

It's hard to get a sense of scale. Is the creature supposed to be large? If so, perhaps you could add something to the scene that we intuitively know the size of. Like a person.

[short hamlet]

you're right, I simulated this sand in houdini but I can't really add too much as I'm already at like 20million particles and my pc does not like it. I hope the focus is on the serpent enough to not matter too much

for the scale it is supposed to be large, I tried to scale down the environment a lot but I also want to avoid adding a person, since its kinda just a showcase render for my 3d model of the serpent I want the focus to be on that

[abstract oxide]

I totally understand regarding the number of particles and rendering from my work in Blender. Perhaps you could render a second, independent cloud and composite that in Photoshop. Or even just build you own cloud.

[bold peak]

and layer the clouds up to make it look larger?

watch the movie Tremors; they make some pretty huge sand clouds 😄

[short hamlet]

thanks thats a very good idea!

I can just move the particles around a bit 🙂

[raven elbow]

Hi everyone. That is the first thing I have ever made in photoshop and I’m pretty proud of it…but I don’t know how improve it, but I know it needs improving.

Project breakdown:

1. I tried using the sidemen font for the names at the top to keep the fonts linked but it didn’t look right.

2. I tried to stretch the ‘sidemen’ but it never looked right and I even tried the shorter version of ‘SDMN’ and it didn’t look right either.

3. I used some black boxes around the logos at the bottom and the text so it wouldn’t be ‘too bright’ or ‘too white’ if that makes sense.

4. I know negative space is a good thing…and it can be powerful when used correctly although I have no idea how to do that 😔

5. I have never used photoshop before. I want to be a graphic designer but I have no experience. Tips and advice please?

[bold peak]

how'd you make this if it wasn't PS? Only suggestion I have is that some of the faces seem a little bright along with the person's tongue sticking out (on the right) FWIW tone down some of the light?

[raven elbow]

I did make it in photoshop, it’s the first thing I’ve ever made in it

@bold peak also, the lighting isn’t something I can control…the photo isn’t mine, it was taken from sidemen clothing cause it was the best one I could find

[bold peak]

ah yeah there's not a ton you can do, but you definitely can do something w

[short hamlet]

Well, sand particles made larger and more of them, sky is less blinding, ignore the firefly artifacts but otherwise I feel like it's lacking a "wow" factor, it just looks a bit generic 😦

[bold peak]

ok that's not bad! But the mountain and ground blend in too much with the creature

IMO

sky is perfect, could be slightly lighter, not much; just a hair

[fierce imp]

appreacite the feedback, im looking at starting a clothing brand, inspired a bit from I love ugly and crookedsupply, Thinking the name Only.One.Era

[gray imp]

I feel like there should be something in the top area of the poster. Any ideas?

[cursive whale]

its simple yet, it looks a bit disoriented, what can I do to improve this, in addition to that, what should i add?

[cursive whale]

holy, you're amazing dude

[bold peak]

what's your end goal for this poster?

[bold peak]

sometimes less is more; add nothing?

[cursive whale]

bet.

[cursive whale]

would love some feedback on all of this :D

[abstract oxide]

Nice updates

[abstract oxide]

You could do some painting with light. Add adjustment layers to lighten and darken. Set the masks to black. Choose a nice soft brush. Lower the opacity and paint on the masks. This example is rough but hopefully illustrates the point.

[raw wadi]

Perhaps a silhouette of a plane high in the sky with a white contrail. 🙂

[toxic dome]

Has this been blended well, here are the individual layers

[raw wadi]

@gray imp

[raw wadi]

I've seen that movie 😉

[bold peak]

ok my turn, opinions? Likes, don't like? Only thing I changed is I added the dog, lighting is wrong but I don't think I can fix that

[remote delta]

suggestiions

[raw wadi]

Perhaps if you tell us the aim / use of the work we can suggest improvements?

[remote delta]

just a practise

to become better illustrator

more like an artwork

[blazing hull]

any suggestions? it feels too "picture-y" if you ask me but its a first time (in this style) doing album covers

[raven elbow]

😍😍😍😍

[blazing hull]

thanks but i need feedback 😭

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @raven elbow (current: #939 - 1)

that is feedback, tbh I think those are pretty good idk what else I'd change

[pearl cobalt]

i created this banner for Halloween. Any suggestion what can i improve in this?

[raw wadi]

Depending where it will be used don’t have the pumpkin sitting on the bottom edge 🙂

[bold peak]

no witch?! 😛 j/k but what's your end goal, what are you using it for? I see its an ad, but do you need it to look more spooky, darker? (IMO I'd either make the background darker or use a darker background.

[bold peak]

also where did you get the halloween overlays? (cat, house, jack o lantern?

[pearl cobalt]

it will be used as banner on gemstone website

[bold peak]

ah ok, fwiw its probably good enough but idk IMO more contrast needed between the gems and the background

but your overlays are quite dark so they might blend in too much if you made the background too dark

otherwise its a good banner

if you wanted to have a little fun, see if you can find witch smoke font for the text 😉

[pearl cobalt]

okay , i'll try

[bold peak]

you don't have to, just an idea

[pearl cobalt]

yeah, i am trying to improve it. after the completion it is looking little odd to me i don't know why..

that's why i posted it here if anyone can have good suggestions

[pearl cobalt]

from a freepik img and seprated the objects using tools in photoshop

[bold peak]

I was thinking something like this as a font; but this is an image 😦 https://www.istockphoto.com/search/2/image?mediatype=illustration&phrase=smoke+fonts

ah its called sky writing

[gusty sail]

just a basic work. What do you think about that?

[bold peak]

imo needs more contrast, your script font blends in too much with the background

[hot rain]

Thoughts?

[pearl cobalt]

this banner is for price category , will be used on a gemstone website.

[bold peak]

o ya way better IMO

though the pumpkin floating in the air with the tree sprouting out of it?

oic that's cool! The pumpkin is on a branch

JMO but you can ask others here; hopefully they will chime in.

[pearl cobalt]

do you think products can be placed in more better way...?

or is it okay?

[bold peak]

eh idk to me they're ok but I'm not that good at this stuff

it would be nice if others would comment though I'm sure you'd like to hear from others

[pearl cobalt]

i have created 2 banners for the gems website (both have same context). Open for your suggestions also rate which should i finalize

[vague vale]

my last thing i did . how is it

[abstract oxide]

These look great. Very professional.
Personally I would have more of the front of the car sticking out of the 8 and less of the back sticking out of the R.

[abstract oxide]

Perhaps drop the opacity of the front gems just a bit to make them look semi transparent.

[bold peak]

or give them all some form of opacity depending on which ones are more dense and not (some are more opaque than others)

that's a good idea Micahel 😄

[normal spoke]

The Reflections on the stones seem not to match the background/rest of the picture. Also the "float" somewhere above the ground and/or have different shadow allignements. The Text above does not look like much here also can be done a little more. Try to make them more "engaging" and interesting.

[pearl cobalt]

In both banner?

[normal spoke]

yes.

[pearl cobalt]

updated a little bit, what do you think? is it looking better..

[exotic scaffold]

Hey guys. Pretty new to Photoshop and Premier. This is an MP4 with the smoke blowing out of the shells. I've been trying to get our logo ("C" with the bullet) to look etched on the center casing so it looks curved to match the shell. I've been playing with the Warp tool for a couple hours and can't get it to look good. I feel like the Wrap Tool makes the bullet in the center to fat. Do you all have any advice or input? Is there a way to do it in Premier? Thanks!!

[normal spoke]

its getting better. But again you have highlights on the stones, but the edges are dark. Also only some of the stones have the highlights and not all. maybe try the same style of photography for the stones and the background (not so much illustration style).

[normal spoke]

I would not so much warp the Logo around. Logos should be clearly visible. The one in the first picture looks much clearer.

what exactly do you want to look like? That seems to be a mockup for some car advertisement. It look Ok for me so far. Maybe some kind of slogan on the back of the van, but overall Ok. Also the name could be put on the front.

[jolly yew]

NEW POSTER what do you guys think?

[normal spoke]

On the back there is missing the Logo 😉 you also could ad a QR Code if that is wanted.

[bold peak]

this is better than the last time; did you change the brightness of the stones? Cuz before it was kinda bright, the dark one is still nice too

but I see what he means by the shadows don't match, its like having more than one light source

[bold peak]

am I missing something? I don't see their photo/project on here

[normal spoke]

I think the Image was deleted. @toxic dome why did you delete? Right now it is hard for others to help.

Hello, everyone! everyone, I have done UI/UX design of Banking Mobile App, please view and appreciate my efforts)
Your feedback and comments on my new design are invaluable to me 🎉

https://www.behance.net/gallery/209948671/Hydrogen-2-Bank-Mobile-App-UIUX

[raven elbow]

Has anyone got time for a quick help?

Basically, what I wanna do is:

1. on the left - change the socks to white.

2. On the right - make the socks way shorter but I don’t know how to like…edit his legs in? Idk

[bold peak]

might wanna ask in #💬chat-general or #❓ask-a-question fyi

[humble kite]

Gave DCC #1 a shot. What fun!

[royal coral]

Do you guys see what I'm trying to do here? Having a hard time with making it look like a shape if that makes sense. Any suggestions on how to make it more realistic? I might just be overanalyzing, but let me know any suggestions.

I'm a bit rusty at photoshop 😅

[bold peak]

what's DCC?

[bold peak]

you'll likely get the answers you need here #❓ask-a-question but can also ask here #💬chat-general , as generally you're only going to get feedback here.

[royal coral]

Looking for feedback

[bold peak]

oh I thought you were needing help, shape looks good I guess; IDK what are you planning on using it with? You've got a massive shape that's transparent... err wait is it transparent? Or did you on purpose put that checkered pattern?

[normal spoke]

The Design overall is solid, no question. But for some ad for a Banking App I would try to make it a bit more interresting. The first Photo shows a Smartphone screen on some rock. First I thought of something for buying milk and sugar or a sports app that counts calories. But should be unique about a BANK App. The next three images are more or less generic and also not showing anything emotional or interresting. Maybe try to some happy people buying cloth in a store or travelling and buying some exotic goods or so, showing how easy it is. Not sure what the "user flow" part should show the mostly non-technical user and the "problems ..." would indicate that there are problems within the app alread?! Also not a good marketing move 😉 Here maybe show some happy programmers or so that make the App better and happy to do so. The AI and card part at the bottom would in m perspective be more valuable at the top as selling point for such an App. The UI Design itself also seem to be solid, but also a bit generic. Here I would like to see some individual Design like a App Logo (H2 looks by itself a bit boring) and the AI Asistant part could be very interresting in Terms of UI Design 😉 Hope that helps as first impressions.

[bold peak]

I thought the rock was snow... LOL

[normal spoke]

Always look from where Lights and shadows come from. the photo part and the "Illustration" part around with the shadows seem to have different directions. That is a bit distracting.

[royal coral]

Thanks! I will work on that

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @normal spoke (current: #21 - 97)

[royal coral]

keeping it simple

[normal spoke]

The thing is wher does the Light come from and where do the shadows fall. If you want to be unrealistic and kind of comicy than thats fine. But for more realistic stuff maybe try to look how the Light in the eys is directed and the shadows around fall of.

[toxic dome]

Feedback Please

[bold peak]

I don't think it needs FB... show off! 😛 ❤️

[toxic dome]

Why not?

[bold peak]

tbh it looks great as it is; idk what else I'd add to it

[craggy summit]

Came back to this to make it a bit better for our game. What do you guys think?

[rain notch]

Hey ya, feel like i got a good base but how could i add small details to improve this? couldnt figure out how to make the highlights & shadows maybe someone could guide me in the right direction

[toxic dome]

Highlights:

Think about where your light source is coming from. The areas closest to the light source will be the brightest.

Use a lighter color or a soft brush with low opacity to gently add highlights to the areas that catch the most light.

Areas to focus on for highlights: edges, tops of objects, and places where surfaces face the light directly.

Shadows:

Opposite of your light source, shadows will be the darkest areas.

Use a darker color and a soft brush with low opacity to build up shadows gradually.

Consider the shape and size of your objects to create realistic shadows. Pay attention to where objects overlap and cast shadows on each other.

Blending:

Use blending tools or a soft brush to smooth the transitions between highlights, midtones, and shadows.

Avoid harsh lines unless you’re going for a stylized look.

Layering:

Use multiple layers for different parts of your image. This way, you can adjust highlights and shadows independently without affecting other parts of your work.

I love what you have so far!! I'm here if you need me!

[rain notch]

Thank you will try

I know this isn't adobe Fresco but can someone give me feedback on my drawing please and thank you?

(You might need to turn down your screen brightnes to see the colors)

[bold peak]

this is way more fun to look at! You turned the stones into different shapes of halloween themed characters 😄

[gray imp]

decided to piece together this creature and I want to make the image itself seem a bit scarier, any tips?

[azure sand]

Guys what should I add for dis photo

[toxic dome]

Maybe try to change the background if you want.

Background:

Change or enhance the background to make your car stand out. An urban setting, a scenic road, or even a racetrack can add a dynamic feel.

Lighting Effects:

Add some dramatic lighting or lens flares to give your car a more cinematic look.

Details:

Accentuate the details by highlighting the car’s features, like the wheels, headlights, or body lines.

Motion Blur:

Apply a motion blur effect to the background to create the illusion of speed and movement.

Text and Graphics:

Add some text or graphics, like a cool logo, a slogan, or racing stripes to give it a unique touch.

Filters:

Experiment with different photo filters or color grading to enhance the mood and style of your photo.

[amber light]

what can I do better?

[bold peak]

personally IMO make the I a little more visible in Evil; reduce the brightness on the left face, the nose area is kinda over exposed? the right face is not bad I can't really make out the rest of the stuff to give more advice but that's JMO for what I can suggest

[amber light]

thank you!

[ripe canopy]

that brown looks weirdo

[bold peak]

did you apply the color to the whole layer?

glad I'm not the only one making giant animals in compositions

[ripe canopy]

no i used camera raw and I used color grading for it

maybe it was a mistake but colors match i think (the other think is that colors dont look good)

[bold peak]

wait... camera raw adjusted the lighting and highlights and all that?

[ripe canopy]

I used a lot of adjustment layers but after that i made a new layer with these adjustments

and I used camera raw

[bold peak]

idk how to do color grading myself

ah ok

the brown overall is kinda interesting I guess

[toxic dome]

I'm going to be honest, I love the brown.

Please give me feedback! (All hand drawn and photoshoped) Took me 8 weeks to finish.

[wooden oak]

Nope.

[rancid patrol]

''Cold'' Palmer, i aint pretty much satisfied with the shadows but meh

[toxic dome]

What

[wooden oak]

This looks like Dall E. And certain decisions that were made were not made by a human being.

[toxic dome]

Explain please if you think that.

[bold peak]

oh its so easy dude... you had me fooled at first

the license plates, the crowd for starters

[toxic dome]

LMAO

[bold peak]

^^ That is also a clue

[wooden oak]

It’s clearly not hand-drawn. And a person would not choose to do some of these things. Like this ridiculous car with six wheels and the markings on the ground. There are myriad issues.

[bold peak]

ahh good catch on the 6 wheeled car

painting all those people by hand? haha...

[toxic dome]

You figured it out. in another server i was in everyone belived it somehow lmao

[wooden oak]

the rendering style looks like Open AI / Dall E, anyways.

[toxic dome]

hahaha

[bold peak]

the worst part IMFO is you claiming it as your own

[toxic dome]

KREW LMAO

[bold peak]

that is extremely bothersome

Good thing D Humann is a moderator

Yall are smart.

[bold peak]

well aside from that... I just knew hand drawing that many people esp not in 8 days but this was before even said it took him "8 days" just that many people, who'd draw all those by hand?

Having no license plate isn't a pure giveaway

Creating a manhole cover for me and my friends discord server icon, any suggestions?

Just my opinion. If this were a real manhole then the crosshatched area is the highest point and would be more like bare metal. The lower area you have grey would be the rust layer as it would have no foot traffic wear.

I'm trying to work on the text for this advert but i can't figure out what layout i should go with. Here is what it currently looks like but to be it looks a bit weird. Any tips on what I can do with the text (im open to taking an entirely different approach with it, im still not sold on the current look of it)

hi how can i make the text look more interesting for next time

[odd river]

I made this for Halloween

[limpid condor]

Add footprints on the snow

[fringe wigeon]

feel free to give feedback and any suggestion

[raw wadi]

Personally I would try the text top right

[ripe canopy]

I would make text bigger and add fog behind car and Road which will be "attacking" car

[halcyon dust]

feedback?

[normal spoke]

besides what Euan said There also seems to be some kind of hole or recessed handle missing with which you could open the lid. Since stones or other objects sometimes fall on it, there are also no small marks or dents. Overall, I like the design quite a bit.

[lucid crest]

im trying to create Elon musk in an old game as playable charcter ( a skin for a 3d player character ) this is the current skin with his face, any ideas for his body? this is the default body skin.

[night thistle]

Please give me a feedback, started photoshop not so long ago, what are the wrong things you can spot what would you change? Thanks if you do give a feedback! ps.: my rank isn’t intermediate i have must missclicked

[cosmic brook]

If it’s Elon, the body should be soft, pale and a little plump.

[bold peak]

you can change your role anytime you want, unlick it 🙂

I'd put the white text behind the head, use masking layers for this, there's no real "wrong" way to do PS at all

the red text looks great where its at 🙂

Also you may want to use your own images if you plan to do something more than personal with it

[night thistle]

The whole text behind the body or just the head? and btw thank you so much ill just go change it

[bold peak]

I'd definitely do the whole body; but try behind the head first? Up to you

JMO, doesn't make it right or wrong but if you want to leave it that way you certainly can

[night thistle]

I have to give it to you it does look better behind, ill do the details and we will se how it looks

[jolly yew]

WHAT DO U ALL THINK?

[crystal smelt]

woah this is sick

[bold peak]

looks good, did you take it from the Tshirt or apply it to the tshirt?

[crystal smelt]

thoughts?

[jolly yew]

i made the design in a separated file and applied it on my mockup

[bold peak]

cool 🙂 looks great

[sacred eagle]

for the ferrari one you should include the same sort of grime that is on the other text in the photo

[royal coral]

How is the lighting? Trying to find inconsistencies before I do the rest

[bold peak]

pretty cool!

[royal coral]

Thank you! Trying to get better at lighting 😅

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @bold peak (current: #93 - 19)

[bold peak]

I know lighting is tricky; there's lots of tuts on it but it's not that simple as just changing the direction/color, etc

idk if I'm right about this but I'd point the light more to the side than from the top (talkinga bout the trees, the eye is fine)

if you look at the catchlight on the eye iris and pupil you'll see its to the right and up a little; well... I guess maybe you have it right, not sure though

nonethless, the improvements look good

[royal coral]

Thanks for the advice, I'll try and tweak a few things to make it match better

[bold peak]

I'm not as good as you, I could be wrong

[normal spoke]

With the green around it works better and better. Now from my point of view there are only minor details you want to work out.
In my sketch you see the "big red Light source" that casts the Light and also the shadows. The red beams and areas the light hits objects are very good. the orange ones are hard at the fence, because the intensity is to shallow or to thick. For something quick and dirty on Insta or so nobody would recognize those.
The blue areas I would try to fix! As you can see in the reflections in the eye THAT Light source came almost from the front. But all the Light and shadow come from the side. So THAT would people notice. Also that you have that really dark shadow at the bottom of the eye that would may not sense at all 😉

[royal coral]

Thank you so much, this helps a ton!

Light and Shadow Trick

Here is a little Trick for everybody that is new to that and/or wants to understand it better. Just took as I show here some round object that could represent an eye or other objetcs and hold it as shown against the lightsource you have. Then you can see how the Light and the shdow falls on the object and the surroundings. Also you see how intense or less intense the shadow and light falls when parts are further away from the lightsource then other parts. Also you can see how diffuse light and harsh light would illuminate the object diferently. Enjoy.

[royal coral]

I got rid of the glow in the eye a bit ago so that there would only be that light source on the side, keeping it simple while I learn

[normal spoke]

best way to learn with my Tipp is with different Lightsources from different angles. Then you will see.

[bold peak]

I saw that if you have access to blender, you can also see how light sources play with subjects/objects

[halcyon dust]

looks good?

[fair granite]

I know the shadows are bad, but what do you think?

[bold peak]

that work?

[short hamlet]

it did, yeah

[pallid zealot]

I had this banner for my facebook group (left) where people are saving things from trash. We started from vintage furniture we took form trash, but later we moved more to giving away everything which is not needed anymore from home. The mission is about saving planet by consuming less. Old banner was misleading pleople. What you thing of a new one? I did that but I am not sure if it is not too much chaos on it and makes people distracted. I want them to make community and cooperate. I am afraid that this strong colors will stress people. What you think?

[bold peak]

I kinda agree the right is a bit "loud" or strong colors as you say, maybe mix the two styles?

[nimble ledge]

any feedback ?

[sand whale]

hello everyone, when i was creating this image, i wanted to make it so the basketball is hitting me in the face, and i made this, do you think it's good? i think it's fine but i just feel like it's not conveying it though

[pallid zealot]

Hi, it is very good but this place where ball hits I would change. What you think of this yellow element instead of pink?

[pallid zealot]

Hi! What is a purpose of this graphic?

[pallid zealot]

You are right. And people will not think it is a different group. I will look for something in between. Thank you!

[bold peak]

highlights are still hard for me to do, but this has lighting from 3 different directions; that made it hard too 😛 whatcha think?

one has smaller dog, this is realistic/normal; horizon matched.

The other one is just Giantized

[cursive copper]

Great job! I am not the biggest expert in this area by all means but here is my opinion:

I would focus on not only workling on the "highlights" but also the shadows and the darkest areas. For example, the middle of the dog especially the bottom/front area should be very dark

If you add a simple shadow on the table, it would make it slightly more realistic as well

Also, if you notice that even though the pumpkins are lit up on from the inside, the light is very localized and doesnt project outwards too much. Hence why their fronts are practically pitch black. You could probably alter the light spread and add some "rim light" effect on the edges of the dog

[bold peak]

there is a shadow under the dog on both of them; the shadows are almost non existent if you look at the pumpkins, there's a slight shodow so I tried to replicate the same

[bold peak]

so like reduce the highlight spread... yeah the light doesn't throw very far

[sand whale]

that's perfect! how did you do that?

[pallid zealot]

Oh, I just did quick selection with polygonal lasso and filled it with pure yellow. Then I added stroke. You can see it is done very quick, not to accurate 😅

[upbeat sleet]

they just made a new shape and made the basketball a new layer so that it could be fit in between the two

[pallid zealot]

I did it more unpro, your way would be the best 🙂

[upbeat sleet]

Haha, no worries.

[sand whale]

thank you so much guys, yeah that was the thing I was missing, I'll post my own one now a bit later

[sand whale]

yeah what you guys think of this? @pallid zealot

[upbeat sleet]

Added a little more realism here

[upbeat sleet]

you are progressing though!

feedback in terms of what? When it comes to a design, much of the criticism is opinionated. Are you looking for feedback in a certain area?

[median parcel]

any feedback?

[dry charm]

text to small and font is not good looking

[versed inlet]

looks good..

Did you just take a picture of the sweater in Photoshop and put the picture on top of it?

[upbeat sleet]

I would go for maybe a softer red or other color background, one that does not blend so easily with the lid

[cosmic brook]

I'm curious to know why there are leaves. The packaging doesn't give any indication that there is a mint or herbal componant.

[upbeat sleet]

im guessing because it ultimately came from a coffee bean plant originally

[normal spoke]

The shadow does not match the lights on the botle or the blurry leafs on the side. Also the objects to the side have some motion blur, but the Nescafe has no motion at all. Also the brown lines (not sure if that should be chocolate or coffee or something else) has some splash motion, but no motion around the glass. also the color seem to be inconsistent. The background seem to be a bit boring. maybe try to be consistant with the kind of motion the Image should transport. Also ad some kind of slogan or what exactly the thing with Nescafe is the new thing that wants to be sold here 😉 Have fun.

[ripe canopy]

I have a quick tip

if you are using motion blur or similar you can duplicate layer and add this blur to the down layer and blur it but front layer blur a bit

and move down layer in the direction you want

[ripe canopy]

I would Wear this but maybe graphic should be in back of the sweatshirt? it can be my opinion not fact but I usually see more cool stuff at the back

[ripe canopy]

to make highlights better you can add "levels" or "curves" or "Brightennes and contrast" adjustment layer UNDER highlights layer

some areas should be way too dark you know

[bold peak]

I will try that on another project, I didn't know you could adjust the highlights on another adjustment layer, I for sure did that within the highlight layer.

ty for these tips 🙂

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @ripe canopy (current: #194 - 8)

[ripe canopy]

when I start adding elements i usually start by making photo darker a lot after that colorize a whole image and then i make highlights

make image darker >colorize it >add highlights > other stuff (not necessary but sometimes)

[bold peak]

yeah but how much darker? you don't want it too dark otherwise you have to do the work to lighten it back up, or when I'm done I'll use the neural filter to match to the final image/background

[ripe canopy]

how do you add adjustments to your work?

are you using masks?

[bold peak]

I do use masks

as for adjustments, I use the levels or curves

[gentle horizon]

@median parcel
Really good how you have removed the unsightly colour overlays. I like the beautiful black and white result.
😇

[ripe canopy]

so you need to make them darker and depends it on position and light source

in everytime you can change level of dark

[bold peak]

yeah but HOW dark? Almost pitch black?

[eternal coyote]

what changes can I make in this?? This is a poster for some college

[hexed grail]

Thoughts?

[lyric bone]

What do you think?

[upbeat sleet]

this is so 2016 esque

[fallen herald]

what does thatr mean

[upbeat sleet]

lot of blending and overlap with the turquoise you chose, other than that maybe a few issues on the side of the cans. Otherwise looking good!

[upbeat sleet]

it means clickbait galore

[fallen herald]

oh

yea thats kinda what its going for

[upbeat sleet]

i figured

lol

those thumbnails honestly haunt me

[fallen herald]

the people that ask me for those are always online gurus

[upbeat sleet]

water is just a tad darker than i would expect given the lighting conditions

[upbeat sleet]

I see, are you trying to improve your skill set?

[fallen herald]

yea i just got into shadowing

im trying to switch from clickbait to realistic

[upbeat sleet]

I see, i was going to say, shadows: that’s a simple one click thing. Go for complexity, be creative

[ripe canopy]

it really deoends on position

at the begininng it xan be difficult

I have a 1 rule about it

or you make object quite dark and you paint shadows on it (corners are lighter than middle of objecg so these are highlights) or you can make object too dark and paint strong highlights

send me psd dm

ill help with it

[bold peak]

oh its fine, I'm done playing with it 🙂 I'm working on new projects

[ripe canopy]

btw usually you should are between these 2 option

I hope i will help

😅

[bold peak]

everyone has helped including you 🙂

[lapis isle]

Can I get some review on my thumbnails I am kinda new:

I have also another one:

BTW these are from my youtube vids

[tranquil trench]

It's good but it'll be more better

[warm crater]

which one looks better?

any feedback on this one ?

[tiny anvil]

What do you think about this Christmas card? It’s for a charity.

[gentle horizon]

I really, really like it.

Perhaps the font could be made a little more "playful". (But that's "complaining at a high level").

[tiny anvil]

Thanks you

[manic void]

guys, I need a professional help
what should I change to make it look professinal? this is my "stage" project to see if I will get accepted or not

you can tag me for an answer please

[glacial flower]

Resizing the BnB icons and the call one.

[glacial flower]

Second one

[manic void]

make them smaller?

[glacial flower]

Yes

[manic void]

besides that?

[glacial flower]

Placing them nearer the bottom is good too

[manic void]

wait I'll show you my previous try, and my supervisor told me to do some changes and you tell me please what more to do

this is my 1st try

and he said the following

Fk

I forgot to hide the num xD

anyways

[glacial flower]

It's okay

[manic void]

The message is not visually clear.
And for the colors, stick to the brand's color palette.

[manic void]

so I did this one

[glacial flower]

I think what he meant is changing the icons to match the brands colour palette. You can do so in site you downloaded them or download an outline version of the icon and then changing the colour in PS.

Using outlined icons is better.

[manic void]

what is an outline version...

I'll look for it myself

thanks a lot ^^

[glacial flower]

And also adding more text about what you are trying to promote.i don't understand the language but if you could add more about it

[glacial flower]

Which icon site are you using?

I think placing the logo to your left is also a good idea. And pushing the texts more to the right. And don't forget the rules of design... don't mix your fonts and colour too much

[manic void]

logowik.com

sorry for the bother btw

[manic void]

sorry to bother you again, but for the house, it's fine to keep it like that or the colors of it are not good?

[stray flint]

how do i make the spacing even so its lined up

without pressing space bar hundred times

[glacial flower]

I think it's okay. The colour is a shade of the logo

[glacial flower]

I don't mind.

[glacial flower]

But brighten it up a bit. The shadows that is

[glacial flower]

I mainly use icons8.com and choose outlined. Before downloading, I change the background colour to white then import it to the file and adjust the colour using colour overlay.

[toxic dome]

Any tips or criticisms?

[lapis isle]

The text is too long at the bottom and I am new so review it with other people as well

[ripe canopy]

try to avoid placing text close to ends of the graphic - make text a little smaller

and put it a little higher

[flat plinth]

Hello everyone! 🎨✨

I am a graphic designer and artist, and I'd like to share some of my current work with you. I'm always seeking to improve, so any criticism, advice, or ideas you have would be greatly welcomed. 😊

Thank you in advance! 🙌

[peak ermine]

Been working on this lil poster. Im having a bit of trouble filling the space where the Puerto Rican flag is. I'm not happy with where it is currently, anyone have any ideas on where to put it?

[idle bramble]

what do you think about this youtube thumbnail i made

[royal coral]

I would change the text color so people can see it better

[idle bramble]

yeah i made the text look like this and added 2 more base images to choose from

[onyx turret]

Hey!
Im making a vintage tshirt design and I made this but Im wondering if it looks to modern.
Can I have some input on this please?

[onyx turret]

??

[raw wadi]

The font has a 1970s vibe. I do that the text at the bottom should fit the curve of the white container. 🙂

[static topaz]

I think the colors but a bit too modern

Just my opinion of course

[bold peak]

if you want to stick to more 1950s retro; go with pastels (you didn't say what vintage years so I presume 1950s is typically "vintage" 70s is classic I guess idk I don't make these up

so either pastels or subdued/faded colors perhaps

[median parcel]

any feedback?

[raw wadi]

The text says established 1978 🙂

[bold peak]

oh heh; well technically that's still in the classics so "loud" colors were a thin in the 70s and 80s

[bold peak]

ty for pointing that out, I missed it 😉

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @raw wadi (current: #26 - 80)

[normal spoke]

On the bottom there is to few going on, to many different Fonts used. Besides the B/w there should be only one "effect"color like the yellow-greenisch color. The orange loks a bit of. Also maybe try to dial down the opacity of the background image a bit so that the face is more present. Hope that helps.

[royal coral]

(WIP)

Anything I can fix on my project so far? Ignore the light bulb, I'm bad at lighting so I need a reference 😅, and I still need to do the nature on the other eye.

[bold peak]

weird how you have a lightbulb unless this is a 3D app the lightbulb can't throw light (would be cool if it could!)

looks great tho 😄

[royal coral]

What do you mean?

[bold peak]

I mean like if this was in blender, you could see an active light throw/emissive onto the objects

[royal coral]

Oh yeah, I wish

[bold peak]

exactly what I was saying; wish could do that in PS

[royal coral]

That would make things so much easier

[bold peak]

ain't it so! One can dream 😦

[peak ermine]

Been working on this for a bit; what should I put in the space near the bottom? Idk what to fill it with.

[bold peak]

nothing, its already filled 🙂

[peak ermine]

But that lil spot, needs something to be there

[royal coral]

Could put an individual cigarette there or smt

[median parcel]

any feedback?

[bold peak]

not always

[bold peak]

looks good 🙂

[median parcel]

🤍

[ripe canopy]

text can be not visible

I dont recommend using the same color of font and background

white text could be better and it will match color perfectly

[bold peak]

I figured if its readable it looks good, but I guess you have a point, if you don't want to change the text color I'd put a solid black shadow behind it

[ripe canopy]

dark purple/black with cool blending mode - multiply or something could work here

just black can be bad idea becaue its light and purple graphic

[bold peak]

again, true; idk what I was thinking... but you defintely want some kind of contrasty color

[ripe canopy]

ive heard and Im almost sure that you can check if text is readable based on background color

on website

[bold peak]

sure, black on black is no good; but it would be ok if the purple is light enough

really dark purple would be hard to read for sure, add some yellow highlights to it can work but I don't think it would match that theme, a very light off white/pastel pink could work too

[ripe canopy]

we can use blue tones

in this case

because these would be related colors

close in color wheel

and colors like blue and purple are close in photoshop does it?

[ripe canopy]

at my work you can see it

[bold peak]

yeah, purple and blue are next to each other

[ripe canopy]

<@&548221840750018590> i dont think it is safe

[ripe canopy]

you can mix 2 colors its often used but mixing blue and purple its the best idea to add second color "slightly" we can use orange also which is in front of purple to make contrast but using orange for small amount of elements i wouldnt use that

[bold peak]

buh that was supposed to be a transparent PNG guess transparency doesn't copy so well

[gentle horizon]

PNG works well with transparency.
The trick is: Never use C&P on a PNG (the clipboard destroys the transparency).
Always save the file and then open it in PS.
tada

[bold peak]

yes the CP unfortunately doe destroy the PNG but it works fine on PC, I did it on iOS is why it did that

I have it on my website if you need a better quality and TY kindly

[plain berry]

Good day, any suggestions to make the lion even better. Im kinda 50-50 with the background design that I choose

[bold peak]

brighten the lion? What background, there's none 😄

[plain berry]

Sorry I did not specify, I was talking about the color of the lion WAHAHAH

The color is actually a background photo that I just found but im kinda in the 50-50 situation if its nice or not

[warm crater]

I don't know how to react to it since the face is hidden . You should definitely try out halftone effect as well.

[warm crater]

hello

how is this one?

[prisma acorn]

hello guys, any feedback for this? 🤔

[toxic dome]

sick

[night thistle]

Thats looks really great, did you made this overlay?

[prisma acorn]

tq man

[ripe canopy]

left side is cool

but blue box has some problems : i would put black text to avoid touching it with corner

and you can put 5 under 2 in straight line

i think you thought leg will cover it but you can use for example puppet warp to change position of his leg

[prisma acorn]

aaaa i see i see thanks for the feedback dud 👍🙏

[sacred eagle]

tuff

everything is perfect

[prisma acorn]

ayy thx man 🙏

[mighty dragon]

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @sacred eagle (current: #451 - 3)

[sacred eagle]

you should try fading the 26 in the background from the edges since the crop cuts it off

yea the only issue is the cropping its cutting off the name of savinho along with the boxes edges on the black text

otherwise its crazy

[prisma acorn]

aa i see, i get wat u mean 👍 i appreciate the feedback 🙏

[warm crater]

Criticism on this one?
How can I make this look better?

[normal spoke]

It looks like a good Design. maybe try not to have s much empty space, to much and to small Text, put some more context to the Design elements on the right. When it should be a website look also where the Navigation Elements will be and include some more descriptive Elements.

[weak prism]

who can create a banking interface? it is paying 50€ after the sending of the image more info in private

[toxic dome]

can i get ideas or tshirt designs ??

[ripe canopy]

you should pay a bit before starting work - its the standard in graphic design industry

[keen slate]

still wip

looks good, maybe give the shapes some kind of shadow definition?

Hello! I'm a newbie and I want to know how to improve these pictures better like lighting, exposure, and such. Any advice and suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you 😊

[grand portal]

nice

[raw wadi]

Perhaps the dentists working lights should be switched on 🙂

[bold peak]

I did wonder about that... we got cool assets for that! 😛

[wooden oak]

If your dental hygienist is wearing a Chanel suit while cleaning teeth, you're probably being overcharged. Just saying...

[bold peak]

only at upscale dentistry! $100k per tooth! 😛 That's a real tooth fairy

[gentle horizon]

I would prefer NOT to have the green fringes on my face.
🥴

[sacred eagle]

whats the sort of message with it

is it more about the job or the person in the photo

[bold peak]

part of the reason why I don't go; had enough of that... and "ahhh open wide!" *** that!!!

[gentle horizon]

<@&548221840750018590>

[languid knot]

Thanks!

[dusk blaze]

HAHAHAHA Your comments are so valid! Unfortunately, though, this is just what the client gave me, and apparently, she wants to look boujee with it. 😅

[dusk blaze]

Uhh.. she's the dental clinic owner just wants to promote it.

[bold peak]

ok its just weird seeing a "dentist" in a suit... idk how that's going to go well for her marketing efforts other than people will definitely think its weird

putting her in scrubs would make more sense, you can probably do that without having to re take her photos but at least for the dental part, her sitting in the chair in the foyer or whatever looks great I guess and ADD some "lights" to the photos with the dental light in the picture 😄

[normal spoke]

I would suggest to have some kind of MakeUp Artist ready or at lleast some Oilpaper to get rid of the glossy cheeks. From the lighting perspective I would try to have not so prominent Backlighting (its to bright). The Background Wall with leaves as ornament is too confusing. For Posing try not to cross arms in front of the body. psychologically, this shields the viewer. In the photos taken in practice, the face mask is distracting. It is black and covers the face. If they were meant to be stock photos, then it would still be OK. The outfit with the thick brooch and the feather thing on the arm is very distracting. The best I would like the Image with the curtain in the Background.

[raw wadi]

Perhaps make the face mask white rather than black. It would look less threatening and much more reassuring 🙂

[sacred eagle]

I think you should've kept it separate

You should've taken photos of the staff doing operations instead of the owner

The owner should've just been well an owner

Yknow professional at a desk

probably denji too

naruto was the best one

[glad lion]

Hello, hope everybody is doing well. I was requesting some feedback on this. Thanks in advance

[ripe canopy]

kinda cool i like yellow orange and blue its good proportion of light but red is kinda too much - you can add white color on overlay mode to make light better

[abstract oxide]

This is looking really good.
From a logic point of view, the grass around the feet suggests that he has held that position for a very long time.

[abstract oxide]

Perhaps give some thought to the direction of the shadows. Is the primary light source supposed to be behind him?

[abstract oxide]

Cool concept

[abstract oxide]

Did you draw these?

[bold peak]

what ya think, lighting is not a factor on this one; was meant to keep simple

[halcyon dust]

its so bad

[novel comet]

Not particularly helpful there @halcyon dust . - Anything constructive you can provide?

[stray flint]

may we get some context whats it for? ||buying women 0_0?||

[plush rose]

feedback Please !

[halcyon dust]

on this design no

[grand portal]

its my 3rd day on photoshop so still figuring stuff out...hows this?

[bold peak]

you should be particularly silenced if you're not interested in being constructive

[bold peak]

as I said its a good start; you'll want to learn how to use warp tool that way your design follows the shirt's unevenness.

[ripe canopy]

wtf bro 3rd day?

it looks like at least 3 month

[analog light]

hi guys
Im new to this
I was just wondering if you guys could provide constructive feedback on my latest photoshop halloween manipulation piece
Btw I'm a beginner
If anyone is intrested in helping pls reply to this and I will send it

[bold peak]

screenshot?

[analog light]

sure

here

so please provide feedback

I have more photoshops if needed

[bold peak]

tbh its really hard to see some of the characters, obviously its supposed to be dark/spooky so not sure how I'd fix that

I'm also curious about the lighting on the person with the red striped shirt... where is the light source coming from? Looks like he's holding something in his right hand? Flashlight?

[analog light]

Thats freddy krueger his hands are made of blades and the light source is supposed to be the lamp above, I see where you are coming from as some of the characters are very blended into the background

[bold peak]

ah I know Freddy K! Classic movie!

ok so the light source is a bit too bright IMO on him, make it less and more to his right (your left if you're facing it)

the character next to him is perfect IMO

[abstract oxide]

Good colour and contrast.
I suggest working on the shadows and trying to get them on a consistent side of the face for all of the heads. This would better sell the idea of a cohesive composition.

[wintry torrent]

tryna learn how to edit did this for a school project but i want to make it darker like the sides and bottom

idk make what you like; here's what I did earlier...

nah don't ask me why I picked those colors; just leave me be

[analog light]

thats really cool tho! Damn i acc really like that. The pink pumpkins tho 🤣

knowing what I make tho do you have any ideas

[bold peak]

no I have no idea what you make 😉 idk man just grab some random idea and run with it?

this is the original before I changed the colors ^^

[raw wadi]

Perhaps since this is for an optometrist and people with sight problems, the text should be bigger so they can read it 🙂

[grand portal]

add a turkey lmfao

[i have never tasted one]

[bold peak]

doesn't need one, no where to put one

[grand portal]

just for comedic purposes

maybe like a

cooked turkey behind the thanksgiving text

and then like

overlay the text onto the turkey

idk if u understand what i mean since im probably not using the right term

[bold peak]

yeah could probably do the turkey behind the text if I knew what font they used

[grand portal]

u cud insert the thanksgiving thing in chatgpt and ask for the fonot
