I like graphic design and helping people.
You might have seen the edits I do for other people #šproject-feedback message
oo
i see, ppl upload .psds here then?
rare to find ppl file share in my video editing discord
Yes
If they want someone else to edit something for them.
What do you guys think of this?
hmm the backdrop tweak didnt work, how would i share a psd without nitro xd
Upload it to Google Drive and zip the file
wait i knew that
Reviews??
Hello Guys,
This is Adarsh Sunkari from India. Iām a graphic designer with experience in both print and digital media.
Iāve been working on packaging design, marketing collaterals, and brand creatives, where I handle the entire process ā from concept to final execution.
Here's my portfolio link : https://www.behance.net/adarsh610
I would like to improve my portfolio and upgrade my career with your suggestions.
hey guys!! I just made my second photoshop project and I would like to have your advices in what I can improve š
I think you should increase the highlights on the people
Nice
I like the image composition. There is a bit of tension with the close-ups; it's interesting. The text layout, not so much.
But will i pass? š
I have no idea what the criteria is.
Me neither xd
Make it more colorful and dramatic
You should give a little more color to Iron Man
Don't you think you should find out what the criteria is... if you're interested in passing?
They just told us to make a movie poster with at least one big head
A movie that doesnt exists
Well, is it actually supposed to be a "movie poster" design?
When I think "movie poster" design, I think something like this... Just a quick idea.
Thats incredible
I wanna learn to edit like that
Decrease the saturation and/or lightness on the yellow part of the background
And boost the blue part
Practice, practice, practice.
Yes i was too lazy to write a paragraph. Can u give me feedbakcs ?
Thoughts on this?
Saturate the yellow text by 30%
Thanksš
Youāre welcome!
Looking really good.
For me the discs are a little bland given how much space they occupy. Could they also be glass?
There are different ways to add noise in Photoshop. You might want to explore theseā¦
Filter > Camera Raw Filter
Filter > Blur Gallery
Yes.
You have 3 different fonts going on
You have too much focus on batman due to the use of blue,
The text is too close to the edge of the image
The "Shadows of Iron" isn't placed very nicely (wasted space etc)
I can't really tell what the title is meant to be, since all three headings are gighting for attention
thanks, i'll work on it
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @novel comet (current: #5 - 1186)
Both characters are equally as visible
There is now just one font and headline so attention isn't split
The one headline left is now a lot easier to read š
No text is hanging on for dear life at the bottom of the image
@wise moth
Obviously design is completely subjective anyway. - and AI helped me with the example above. - I just wanted to visualise some of the suggested changes
i love the desing, really cool, i might have to change it! thanks james
Thanks I'll try em outš

Hello Iām looking for someone I could possibly dm about some feedback about some projects I do. I basically take game screenshots that I take myself and try to edit them and make them look as realistic and or as pretty as they can get! Ik the basics and all that of photoshop but kinda new to compositing!
Cheers. Good luck.
You can dm me
Whatās up?
Hi, I like the idea of āābeing able to improve the images, that's why I was practicing and I would like to receive feedback.
original:
No, I got the image from Unsplash; it's among the first.
I'm practicing, as I said.
It does look better with a darker exposure. Saturation is bumped up a lot. The leaf is very green but doesn't look "bad" per se. Just preference.
Should I increase or decrease the saturation?
Sorry, I'm using Google Translate...
No. Its just personal preference. If your goal is a saturated image then that's fine.
”Entiendo gracias!
I'm not sure how you're editing but you may want to try Adobe Camera Raw or Lightroom. It has powerful masking features targeted edits.
PS > filtro camara raw
They look very nice.

this album cover art is soo well done
It's nice. - Maybe consider a high-pass filter to make the eyes pop a little more?
Since itās nighttime I would suggest adding more shadows/darker values in some places
Definitely a WIP but how do i make the graffiti wrap around the pillars in a more convincing way?
Tried to edit my suggestions in for you, feel free to ask me anything.
In the context of the person wanting the edition to show the model that will be sold physically and will send you the image so you can "improve" it, what would you do?
I wanted to detail the colors as a guide for when you prime and paint.
The only thing that will be printed is that small base and the model. The rest is the 3D environment for rendering only.
The can is really well done.
Iād rotate one of the mangoes to avoid repeating (finding another one would be best.) the fresh drinks text is not very readable.
Did you try creating a cast shadow rather than a drop shadow?
What I did in the image. Boost the saturation and contrast
If you want the process, I'll record it for you.
@rare ivy
Make the animal more āvisibleā and ādefinedā like this
I feel like you canāt really make sense of the animal too well.
Would also say to boost the highlights a tad bit.
Could use some sort of stroke around the logo.
Stroke?
click on fx on the bottom right
anyone who can edit faces like change hair color, add beard, remove beard, add hair, remove hair, add face fat dm me I need someone to hire
No big deal and simple, but that's the point - one of the reasons I like Generative fill is for these fast poster requirements for email and Socials that my volunteer work needs. The "Oh No" people were quick and easy. Feedback always welcome, but like I say, this was a "get it out the door yesterday" kind of thing. Have a nice day, all.
Which is better A or B?
Decrease the saturation on the people by like 20. That's it.
A has more contrast, yes.
A everytime
Any feedbacks?
Nice
Started drawing for the first time ever, this is the first page of my own manga
any feedback?
@glacial grove Thanks for that, I'll pay more attention to saturation and color balance when using AI, I was in such a hurry I hadn't thought to look. Have a nice weekend! š
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @glacial grove (current: #656 - 2)
this is my second day in photoshop just learnt about the basic tools can anyone tell me what should i improve on?
Holy talent
Youāre welcome
Nice compositing
The shadows are dark on the knight, average on the rocks and light on the monster. If you even these out the composition will feel much more cohesive.
Are you overlapping multiple layers? If so, do you know about Blending Modes?
so should i add more shadows to the rocks and the monster to even it out? i used the exposure adjustment layer to add the shadows and highlights
Yes. Personally I would darken the shadows of the rocks a little and the monster even more.
The main light source in your image is the sun. Based on itās position, the monster, the knight and the rock columns should be in partial/strong silhouette.
ok got it, thank you for the feedback appreciate it
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 257)
You're welcome. Of course at the end of the day this is all just personal opinion. Good luck with the project.
How can that be achieved?
I like your image.
I'm assuming the colour is a stylistic choice. If not, a Curves adjustment layer could help. This is a rough demo.
If you are doing a lot of photo manipulation, the Camera Raw Filter is awesome
How to Sharpen Guide - https://bit.ly/3IzelwR
Welcome to the sharpening tutorial for Adobe Photoshop! In this comprehensive guide, we will show you how to use high pass radius filters in order to make your images pop. Follow along with our step by steps instructions and check out the below video where I go into detail. This is a great technique...
yo how do I remove the pixelness feel to the image this is my first photoshop experience? š
update
Someone please tell how i can improve this picture.
Just use a AI image upscaler
1.) Remove the visible line in the composite
(and whatever this is in the corner; it adds nothing to this image)
2.) Try a "Rule of Thirds" approach to composition to boost visual interest.
3.) Work on overall tone, e.g. light, shadow, contrast, color grading, etc.
No need for explanations. Just keep practicing. You only get better by doing. Try to make a 100 composites by the end of the year. Then look back at your progress.
Ok! thank you for the feedback.
what else should i add to this composite?
I tried adding a little more depth to the shadows. This is a purely subjective edit.
That would help!
Yes, you can see the skeleton more.
Your misty environment looks great. However, as mist effectively builds up over distance, objects in the foreground shouldn't be as obscured as those in the background.
I tried adding much more contrast to the foreground as a test. This is completely subjective of course.
Youāre good with curves
I never bothered to use them
Thanks mate. Thatās kind of you to say.,
Thereās always 17 different ways to do things in Photoshop. I guess I love the fidelity of Curves.

try to blend the images better at the edges of the hole
anyone who can give me tips on how to remove the pixelness feel of the wires and make it better? its my first project in photopea
Keep in mind this is a Photoshop server.
Did you extract the wires from a photo? If so, can you post that photo?
im too broke to use ps š
Sorry but I don't DM. Can you post the content here?
first time on photoshop, made this to honor my dead cat, what can i improve/change
is this inspired by pixelated kisses, because theres a few other ways to do it without losing quality
omg howd you know lol, I think I cropped the power lines using magic eraser and it pixelated it
haha been a fan since filthy frank, could try messing around with adjustment layers just to change the color
but if theres a background you want to remove maybe select it feather the radius a bit and delete it without magic eraser
Ill prolly upscale the image so that it doesnt look low res and maybe mess with the adjustment layer thx
id try hue/saturation with colorize on and see how that looks
the grain and distortion can be added later
ill keep that in mind
We don't support apps from other manufacturers here. Sorry. If you need help with that app, you'll have to join their Discord or check their documentation. Also, your 5 attempts to send the reply didn't go through because you included "f--k" each time. Not gonna work here.
Any feedback? this is my first time designing a stylescape, on the design i'm going for like a graffiti and underground ish look
Iād use the remove tool, then draw pats for new wires, and stroke them. Not sure if you can do that on photopea
Is not the best place to say this, but i mean, not EVERYBODY pays it⦠ejem ejem
is this advertisement good?? anything I should change? any feedback/opinions helps
feel that bottom left side is missing something but unsure what i would even add there
Can you post a screen capture so we can better see the quality?
vibe coded this last weekendāwhat do you think of my portfolio section? still rough around the edges (custom nav bar coming; descriptions pending; months of work ahead) but I can see it taking shape. the vision is clear, even if the execution's still catching up.
beyond the site, I'm building a whole ecosystemāhoodies, tees, swim trunks (Printful just dropped DTF printing, highest quality fabric transfer available), phone cases, prints, stickers. full dropshipping model so I never touch product, just design and distribute. trying to build something that doesn't just sell but connectsāpacks, tools, photoshop courses (mystically philosophical; beautifully rendered; expertly composed). I want to help people, leave a real impression, not just another transaction.
then there's the content sideātrying to carve out time for something engaging, dynamic, trippy. deeper than entertainment though. I'm thinking Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas vibes (a nod to my soul), very 4th-wall-breaking, very story-driven, but I don't know what 'my' story is yet. it'll hit when it hits. when it does, I'm dedicating ~80% of my time to it. I have the 'why'ājust waiting for the 'when.' the cards are already falling.
end game? $30k workstation that scales to $100k server. then I build my own AI. every project dovetails into the next. this isn't randomāit's architecture. I'm building something that grows, compounds, becomes.

Im sure this is the worst photoshop edit ever existed
i've been working an hour on this and its just harmonizing her with the environment which makes me feel back knowing that usually it took me 2 hours for super complex set and now i cant even match some lighting
yo guys
it is because she is soo like forward compared to the background.
like the background is too far behind er
any feedback?
Hows the lighting and the color?
ist nice but you need more green on her
try messing with the hue and saturation
also make it like only A LITTLE darker and mess with the greens on her
with saturations and stuff
(Water) Screamers 3.0
Good edit?
Feedback pls
Personally I think the highlights are too bright as youāve lost all detail in the clothing.
Unless this is a deliberate stylistic choice.
thank you ready fix
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 258)
I turned it down a little but the clothing highlights & whites not really doing much
No worries. If you want to see detail in the clothing you are going to have to make a much stronger adjustment. Don't forget you can use things like masks to apply changes to only certain areas of an image.
How can i explain like..
It is like trying to match an UFO with a hotdog
Enviroment and peron is SO different
how we looking??
I think the skin looks much better now but there is still no detail in the clothing.
Can you post the original image for one of the players?
See all that detail in the clothing? It looks 3D.
In your edits the clothes are a solid white making them look 2D.
ohh ok
Again, if this is your stylistic choice that's cool. All I'm saying is that you can still brighten things without blowing out all the shadows and detail.
yea i feel where you coming frm
Are you familiar with the concept of contrast? Perhaps do a little Googling on it if you aren't. Basically it's the act of simultaneously brightening the highlights and darkening the shadows.
aint thats like curves and levels?
You got it
Like I mentioned before, don't forget masking. This allows you to make those changes to only specific areas of the image.
yea ima practice masking more
i brought back the details
Yeah mate. That looks awesome. Nicely done.
preciate the helpš«”
Cheers. Happy to have helped. Keep creating those cool designs.
Any suggests?
Pretty cool layout. A few thoughts...
- Right justify the text at the bottom and place the right edge near to where the photo meets the white area
- Increase the exposure on the person
- Use a dark colour in the glow around the icon
increase exposure on the person
this the most important one
Hey. This is my first attempt at breaking into the graphic design freelance space. This is for a fictional women skincare brand. Any pointers on how to further this would be great

@clear coral
I will just retype what I said earlier (and deleted)
isnāt the best advice for something like this to just try to copy exactly an already existing thing
the text isn't centered and neither are the elements as a group. If you want to flush right or left, it needs to feel intentional and not just a few pixels, because otherwise people will rightly think it looks wonky
Also I think (but it's my opinion there) that it feel a bit too monochromatic, I don't feel a strong contrast there that would make me feel like buying it.
The execution is good (regarding the cut out, the shadows etc) so it's a nice job, but it feels a bit flat to me.
The only thing that stands out is the white pot, so I would definitely try to introduce that in the other container.
But it would depends if it's a POS design or an advert in a magazine. It could work as a point of sale banner, because it's just advertising the discount, it would feel a bit bland if it was for an advert (and there would need more text/explanation, at least a tagline)
Is there a structure source information i could dive into to learn more about composition and color
everything ive ever made design wise was just trial and error till this point
Did you search for resources https://www.colormatters.com/color-and-design/basic-color-theory

I recommend Ellen Luptonās books āThinking with typeā and āgraphic design: the new basicsā
Promotional match post for our game 26th of December inspired by the movie poster from "One Magic Christmas", should still add wich team we're playing but don't really know where to put it
also couldn't find the right font for the Title, only found one that looks alike, even used font identifiers
Might have been custom typography .. when was the movie made .. ?
1985
110% Custom Typography
also made this one, but I feel like the player on the right is not fitting in, is it saturation, levels??? Don't quite seem to find it
the stylized paint look on the player, is what I when for bc of the stylized look of the background
I can help ! What you need is called a hue map
should add some noise
/ color map
Hold on !
So what you do is :
Before:
Create a new adjustment layer: solid color ; Set it to 50% lightness in greyscale ; then set the blending mode to 'Luminosity' ; above it, create a new adjustment layer: hue/saturation ; set saturation to 100% ; then, group those two layers to easily toggle it on and off.
After: then, create a new adjustment layer on each layer you'd like to manually adjust the color of, use: selective color, clipped to each layer. Basically, you can use the hue map to color match, and selective colors to manually adjust the colors seamlessly

My design of brochure
Hi, I am providing with design and web development services please reach out to me if you have any projects for me to work on.
These are generally fantastic. Great work.
A few suggestionsā¦
PORSCHE
- The highlights on the car are washed out. If you brighten these you will get a slight contrast boost and the car will pop.
- The hessian like texture on the text is irregular which doesnāt fit the āclassā style of a Porsche.
DRAKE
- The text fades out very quickly at the base. Perhaps extend the falloff of that fade.
All good solid Designs. For some suggestions to make it even a bit better ... There is very little happening in the surrounding area. The object is always at the center of the design, but there could be more supporting background elements around it to match the theme. For the Drake Design there could be some faded dark audience and some more spot lights. A Porsche is a FAST car, so something like a street, asphalt or some spinning wheels.
The broshure Design look solid, but also very generic. If I look up those designs e.g. on Behance there are tons of those designs. Maybe try different backgrounds and props around the broshure.
Since you posted specifically in #šproject-feedback, I'll be a bit brutal!
It feels quite dated, maybe 2010s-era Microsoft/Word template style, I'm not a fan of the fonts.
Some of the text is too bold. In fact, I don't really like the font very much (But that's entirely subjective)
The logo in the top right corner looks crammed in, and the gutters are too small, the text is leaking into the fold.
I can't really tell what the content Hierarchy is, since you have two headlines competing with each other.
The icons at the bottoms have different styles
The headline on the cover is too close to the edges
In fact the copy is too close to the edges everywhere
The page is too crammed with copy.
Solid design. Nice work.
For me the icons feel like a mix of different styles. eg The solid fill icons don't match those that are outlined.
But again, solid and professional design.
Thanks for the suggestions ill try to improve it from next time.

For the Porsche one i did add a road in the surrounding area isn't it fine?
Also for the Drake one I tried adding the downtown Toronto
Thanks for suggesting tho crowd and some spotlights will look fire.
Thanks for the help guyz.

Thanks for the support bro

i was wondering if this would be considered a type of anti-design
nop
What would be a good definition for an ANTI-DESIGN? Anything can be considered a design, no matter how strange it is.
ight thanks a lot
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @vale flume (current: #81 - 24)
Texts could be more balanced. Also try the cup of coffee to be a little more on the down side to have more copy space up. And I would pick typographies more similar.
Try to integrate the bottles with the tree. If your idea is to show them as fruits they shouldn't be all the same size.
actually i generated the image with chat gpt
Then give a try to Ps even with firefly support
ok
Looks cool. Did you design this yourself?
thanks. yes i did

superhero character design ,concept sheet for 3d modelling
hello there, im trying to choose wich version of the logo is the best, what woud you reccomend? is there some kind of standart of choosing a logo or is is just a personal preference?
It's not necessarily your preferences that count, as the designer. You're creating logos (presumably) for an audience, the cafƩ prospective customers in your case. So, they count first and foremost
Another thing you need to take into consideration, are the technical limitations of the medium onto which the logo will be printed, or displayed.
For example, you may consider the one with the gradient smoke, but know that this version might not print very well if small. Or will be confusing if you adapt it to a favicon for example
That's why, most logos have a black and white variation, and a simplified version that works as an icon
thanks, thats really helpful, will keep in mind
Keep all your variations, if you present that in a portfolio, case studies are a very important aspect that many people forget.
You can then explain why you chose a final one that was different, explaining your thinking. Most clients will absolutely love to have an insight in how your brain works. Graphic designers are more problems solvers than artists and good clients look for that when hiring.
i have seen people including there sketches of first variation of logos and different versions of them in there presentations. great tip š
It also shows that you didn't take any old logo from a free library, like so many people do š
Things you can include in your project showcase are: Sketches, colour/monochrome variations, other kind of variations (like just the smoke that would make a great favicon in it self), but also the initial brief (what the client asked), your own research about what will attract customers in your logo and also client feedback along the way. I wouldn't recommend you do that for every project you made, but if it's a project where you had a real creative control on, that involved a lot of work on your end, and was delivered to the satisfaction of your client (and the client can be you if it's a self initiated project) then go for it.
and of course mock ups of the logo in situation, like a coffee cup, on a menu, on a leaflet, on napkins, on uniforms. It costs nothing most times, and gives a good sense how what the logo looks like in real life.
Most clients are hard to convince when they can't see the stuff in situ, so it's good practice as well when presenting the final project to the client.
i am working on this poster and wanna add motion blur to the jet but i also wanna keep the details what would yall advise?
i just blurred the edges i think it works well
yup its looking perfect
The design looks great.
The flame is parallel with one engine but not the other.
yeah it is the su 57 wich has its engines angeld for better handeling
thanks for pointing it out tho
So the flames can shoot out at different angles? Damn.
you can kind of see it in this one
You initially mentioned that you wanted to add motion blur to the jet without losing the details. My example is very rushed but it demonstrates how you could paint on a mask to selectively decide what is blurred.
ouhh i like that as well let me try it out later
Cool. I still like your design as it is.
I tried making a 3:4 poster in the style of a gfx anime banner but it looks a bit cluttered and unprecise, any advice on what i can do instead?
The brightness of everything feels quite uniform. If you significantly darken your background then the foreground elements should jump right out.
Perhaps remove some of the text elements or make them less intense?
Thanks for the advice
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 262)
Cheers. Hope it helps.
Yeah I could try that next time
yeah i think it is done thanks
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 263)
One note:
It would certainly be advantageous to retouch these visible lines even further.
@south merlin
I did this for a project do you have any suggestions or its ok the concept?
the concept of this project is to announce an artist to a party
Yeah that looks great. Cheers mate.
Thatās looking pretty nice.
You do have a lot of dead empty space at the bottom.
yeah i dont know if i complete the bottom part, because right now i dont have any idea š„²
any suggestions?
Personally I would enlarge the image of the man and have him extend all the way to the bottom of the design. I also appreciate that half of your design would become orange at this point and would dominate your soft blue background.
This might be how I would start. Again, a very personal choice and perhaps not appropriate for your design objective.

Some sketches which one do you guyS like the most
Any feed back?
watched a video on photoshop and thought it looked cool but my laptop was too bad too run it so i had to get photopea instead mmmm
Nice. I like the hands!
I like your design.
I feel like the shoe is lost against the similar background.
What if you made the background like a blueprint?
This is a rushed and incomplete example...
yeah that makes way more sense
Yeah mate. Looking good.
Very good use of the warp tools!
I like your style!
Good use of space.
why are you posting ai generated images here
Well photoshop has a ai feature too,and nowadays graphics designers are using Ai in their workflow
Also I don't completely rely on AI .I combine it with photoshop
Thoughts?
The lettering is now much better aligned. A small side note: perhaps you could rework the lights and shadows in the lettering. (The house is lit from the top left, but the lettering is lit from the right.)
reviews?
Im cusious how realisic someone can make this for me I want it to look as real and human like as possible if possible?
You could use Photoshops AI to make it look less like a videogame
struggling with typography. this is for a windows cleaning business
What do you mean exactly?
dont know where to place it
Help us help you buddy. Spell it out š
Iād be more worried about all the unexplained shadows on the left sideā¦
Is this AI? The can looks short.
the idea is mine , i first make a sketch on paper then uploaded it to chat gpt , lated added the text in ps
played with typography
Brainstorming sketches for soda can ad
Looks good so far. (Even though I'm not a fan of disproportionate sizes.)
Btw. Is āFreindā a spelling mistake or intentional?
no its a spelling mistake actually lol
i have fixed it now
thank you
thanks twiz

photoshop needs to add a 3rd roating thing
Rotating, you mean? There are perspective warp features; 3D work has dedicated appsā¦
I would maybe try to put Things with Text on it in the Front and not in the back. Also there are no reflexions in the Glas. To get more "action" into the Image the spray bottle could spray something and there could be drops on the window to get mor dynamics.
After the client brief, i change the look of design, with a modern feel and focusing on Highlighting the Generators. Please share your experience with me. What could i do for better practice. thanks
Just my opinion, but I donāt really like how low-detail the generator is, and overall the background looks really low-res compared to the added text.
did you make/generate the logo too? If so I'd recommend changing it- it looks kind of gross, not like coffee š like some weird alien organ thats dripping fluids
the smaller generator is a much lower quality image than everything else- likes its alower resolution 
and on the right- is there meant to be a weird ghostly outline of the generator with some overlay, shifted to the right? If so, looks more like a mistake than intentional
haha, D. Humann, btw, I had to "crop" it out of the AI generated pic, UpScale it a little, and then paste it into my original photo of the car Delivery.
And then do all of the Ribbon shadowing and stuff by myself in PS of course, haha š
But I would say its better, then the small one yesterday, or the GenAI one š
So you ripped the ribbon off my image and slapped on yours... That was only part of what was wrong with the composition in this image.
Nope š
But anyways...
I paid for my Gemini Pro Plan, and created a new image.
š
Just for this, one, picture, Oof.
Hopefully you'll find some other utlity with the service.
Oh, with Gemini?
Yeah, Its not bad at all tbh! I have already used it for some other stuff, thanks for letting me know about the software š
So you wouldnt think its photoshopped? āŗļø
The problem with Gemini is the Low res, how from a high res 4K pic, u are forced to go down to HD quality
I would, yes. I can see a fringe around areas on the bow and ribbon. Dead giveaway. However, I assume everything is a digital enhancement and you'd have to prove to me that it's not.
Most images these days are edited. And probably should be. heh
Wait, "digital enhancement" in terms of my Iphone Camera or the editing in PS by myself?
Unless you're a purist working specifically in film and processing your own film shots and that's your process, then no.
Almost all images are edited in some way now.
Or are you reffering to the "cut out" edges of the bow, where from the red color, there are sometimes little black markes / grey / white?
Even if its just taken by your phone. Smartphones put their own "spin" on photos taken with them. Even if its just how they capture light and then store it. There is a sensor involved and some post-processing of an image. Unless its a RAW file.
if you are in-fact reffering to that, that would be because, as I said, I was forced to cut it out of the Generated image, and paste it into my Original Delivery pic, so thats the reasoing behind, basically - I was unable to pixel by pixel cut the bow out of the Generated photo, so there are some areas where there is a bit more then just the ribbon itself
Mhm, so remove the bad cut out parts (Pixels that are not the ribbon) and it would be good to go? š
You weren't "forced" to put a ribbon on the car. You chose to do that as opposed to getting an acutal giant ribbon and photographing it with a real ribbon on it. Which likely would've been cost-prohibitive to do. Hence, a big reason why we all do digital image editing.
I would just take care about the edges. You can see where you cut it out.
Right, well, did not want to make it sound like I am forced to do something, this is just out of my pure interest, hence I do believe car Delivieries simply look better with the ribbon / flowers no matter what, like on a older car, which I got the "special delivery treatment" on, and the "big red ribbon" was in fact there, not in this case, since the conditions were different š
As long as people aren't expecting the ribbon when they turn up at the dealership or when it gets rolled off the flatbed. :D
Right, so just kinda remove the bad pixels, and also just make the edges a bit more blurry?
Not just "blur" them. Remove the white fringe around it.
Yeah no, this purchase was kind of spontaneous, but when I wasnāt in a position where I could buy basically any car I wanted, I had to plan ahead ā talk to people months before, make a lot of appointments regarding the specs, etc. So the big red ribbon, the delivery, the spec ā everything back then was planned months in advance, and it was a really special moment for me.
I was kinda kidding about the ribbon. A giant ribbon is probably a giant waste of time and resources. heh
White Fringe... Hmm let me see! I am not so sure what exactly are you talking about š
Haha, you might think itās over the top, but honestly, it does feel pretty rewarding when you see that big red ribbon on it, a sign that says āSOLD TO: XXXXX,ā and a bunch of people waiting there to congratulate you on your six-figure car purchase. Itās part of the experience ā that little moment that makes it all feel really surreal and you just think "wow, I really made it this far" for sure not a waste for me š
Oh yeah, I ll get to work, and cut it out š
I guess if you're buying a car with that price tag, it should come with a ribbon, a hearty handshake... a key to the city from the Mayor... or Governor. Just for the amount of tax revenue it generates. heh
Haha, trueeā BUT since I bought it in Dubai, the tax part was actually really tiny. Thereās no income tax here and only a 5% VAT on cars, so even on a $790k McLaren it only added up to around $829k total. Compared to the crazy luxury and sales taxes elsewhere, thatās basically nothing when u think abt it ā one of the perks of buying stuff like this in Dubai haha.
Should I also just use the "blur tool" for the blurring part, or just perhaps make it sharper with the sharpen tool? Not sure how it should rlly look like, but I guess make bit of both?
I would perhaps use a Blur filter, very low level if the edges look too sharp but don't overdo it.
I like the idea - but IMO somewhat overdone
Sorry.
Why?
It's your project. And you have to like it.
š
Why do you think itās overdone?
The colours are oversaturated, especially the skin tones. And there is no longer any detail in the shadows.
I prefer the original.
The heads are too small
the titles are too small
the copy is too bold
the capitalisation is inconsistent
all 3 people have different lighting applied to them
the guy in the middle has a smaller head/zoom than the others
It also depends on the context though for the thumbnail. - Like I for example wouldn't be remotely interested in clicking on it, but I don't think I'm the right target audience anyway
You really want the middle guy BIGGER, not smaller....
I think a combination of the two...
The photo of the unit being used is way nicer tham the ugly box on a plain background, but the heading was too hard to read before
This is what the client loves! I give him 2 to 3 options.
āDo the lighting and silhouettes look right now? Does the light direction and intensity feel natural and consistent?ā
Hi everyone! š
This is one of my latest photo manipulation projects š¬āØ
Would love to get your feedback on composition, lighting, and overall storytelling.
Any suggestions to make this portfolio-ready are super welcome! š
I'm confused as to why there is a whale shaped shadow overlapping the whale. It looks like it is casting a shadow on itself.
Made a expriment from a drawing of a horce with genAI. I used Firefly 3, Flux and Nano Banana I used this prompt on al three Make a real horce. Here is the result Image 1 The drawing, Firefly3 no result didn't get a result because of the prompt, Image 2: Flux and Image 3: Nano Banana. My own comment is non of the generated is 100%, Flux follow the horse pattern best but make a big head and make a bad head pattern. Nano Banana head is ok but the pattern is a compromise, The horse on the drawing is a American Paint horse. I think that Nano Banana wines because the result look like an American Paint horse. Flux horse more like a Quarter horse with paint pattern or a Spank Mustang
I think the horse look like little lonely so I add a d Native American.

Hey everyone! I created a set of 3D UI icons for designers helps speed up workflow
Hereās a free sample : https://paperknowledge.thewayl.com/
Would love your feedback
āIāve made the corrections. From your perspective, does this feel final, or should I polish anything further?ā
I need feedback. is white or greenish ground more realistic?
it kinda has both maybe
One of the earlier two or this one? (lighter version, in the middle)
It's difficult since the whole scene makes no sense, the lighting is off and the images seem quite low res
A completely shameless AI generated image, but it includes a few elements you could maybe add to yours... - like perhaps dust bursting from the floor
Or the sunset/helping to explain why the sand is so brightly lit when the sky is so dark,
Do you guys think the proportion in this image look okay? i mean especially the colors and the mountain range with the ''fog'' and black glow
Since you agree @novel comet i think its safe to continue
i feel like you're an expert
@wooden oak DONE!! (Sorry if it's to late in there its just 12 am here lmao)
Shadow under the northern light: does this make sense or is without better?
also do you guys think the lighting on the person looks real? blue green ish?
I need opinion I was making a meme in Photoshop but a friend of mine changed it a bit, is it bad?
HI I will let you know in points what can you do to improve
- Use High quality images of these Youtubers
- Try to fit these ytbers from the above chest just like in the refrence image it will have more impact.
- Change the Font used to less bold font Sans-serif Font. If it is bit serious tone try searching fonts related to that Tone (Try Roboto bold or anyother)
- The Bg is good but the overall thumbnail is dark compared to other the thumbnail which will come on side by side when you use on the YT. Try adding Highlights around the character and glow from from behind the character. (If you are new to these don't worry there are plenty of tutorial covering the glow and highlight technique in Ps)
5.Last but also imp try adding Hierarchy in these type of thumbnail. For Ex-: Keep the middle person bit bigger then compared to left and right persons it will create a sense of hierarchy here who is the imp person here. In your video around which your video will be
This is improvement compared to last one
so i have this mockup of a water bottle im working on for my brand but the placement of the logo annoys me can anyone give me a better placement or a way to make it look better/ stand out from the pattern more
Is this channel where i share my work
for feedback, sure
Would you consider making the logo larger?
Hello folks, any recommendations or advice ?
Not sure I grasp the concept completely. Maybe he should be wearing golf shoes (cleats) instead or regular sneakers?

does this light setting look realistic or not? if i would also fix the snow lighting
idk if its too much or if this makes sense
I finished this poster yesterday im looking for suggestions bcs if u look down under the smaller car theres a custom made logo i did but i was wondering if i should pull it up a bit maybe also make it bigger
the poster looks really good but i barely noticed the logo at first glance
might make it a bit bigger and maybe some nice shadow a bit like the cars
Sauna update. is this good enough to call it finished or do you guys see anything odd
I feel like the two larger cars detract from the smaller one. Do you really even need them? Perhaps make the smaller one a little larger and fade and or reposition the larger ones.
The greenish tint of the background abruptly ending feels a little odd to me.
If u mean the sauna being cut off its kinda required because the sauna needs to be close enough to see the text on the window. and it wouldnt really make sense to place it in the middle of the road
this is the frame
It's not the crop. It's that the trees are heavily tinted that colour but the snow at their base is white.
do u mean all the snow or under the tree specifically?
i looked at some northern light images and the snow is still very often bright at night
maybe i can find a way to make the snow on the trees more white to match it a bit more
idk how to fix it right now so might improve it later
Thx for the feedback
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 265)
@abstract oxide
The blending of sauna structure from floor can be improved a bit ig
Hi, did you try putting a darker shadow under the main text? And maybe moving your own logo to the right side, so that it stands out more?
I did try but then it looks a bit weird and yes the logo used to be on the right but i moved it to the center cuz imo it looked better but thxxxx for the suggestions
Not bad at all! Love the style but I agree with what @abstract oxide said... The focal point should be the car in foreground.
I made a quick modif from your original design to illustrate our words. Big elements in background works but you need to fade them.
I think with few tweaks you'll get a great poster.
@bleak echo
yeah you're right, im working on it
i also got the feedback to add a little steam inside the cabin so i guess it looks better so far
(need to re add the glow again, so ignore the darkness outside)
Yes that's way better! The faded cars in the background are nice, but in my opinion, the main subject is still a little too small.
Maybe it's just a matter of taste...Up to you.
Ye thx mann
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @bleak echo (current: #7 - 973)
āThanks for sharing the AI example as well ā it really helps me understand the direction youāre suggesting.
Iāll study the lighting, dust effects, and the way the sunset is handled in that reference, and try to incorporate similar realism into my piece.
Really appreciate the detailed feedback!ā
You want to make the outside darker, to better make the inside look brighter
my opinion
light blending is really weak
i would guess a fully lit up sauna would give off more light in a snowy night enviroment
Yeah i have to check my project when i get back online cause i think its darker in the project
Or if you see the environment full scale it isnt that bad
this is combination compared to the rest of the photo
i think it looks pretty ok compared to how dark the sky is for example
snow tends to remain bright during northern light nights
very cool
what do u think of these proportions
I think the design is getting a lot worse, but keep at it š
I always thinks less is more with design!
I'm never going to like an image with loads of crammed with comped in assets š - Which you could say is subjective anyway š
Your preference i guess
My style is different per design category
Minimalist for products and furniture, specific colors for interior, and whatever is needed or looks good on graphic work
Im probably deleting the sitting person to make room for text on the window and just keep it as the person standing
Then just write some text like hobbies and stuff since its supposed to be a poster about myself
So il gently put texts into the environment
hey im making a movie poster. this is the title card/billing block, any advice/suggestions
i have a feeling all the text is not centered for some reason. is there any way i can check so that all of the text is centered to the middle of the poster
Yes. There are alignment tools. You can highlight all the text boxes and then click 'central'
thanks
nice - but Grey looks a bit too washed out, I'd tweak dark/light bits and add more vibrance:
i started photoshop 2 days ago and this is my progress so far, i would be VERY happy to receive feedback/criticism! ā¤ļø
Finalized at last.
To be used as Official Branding for the Upcoming Garry's Mod Server Projekt a friend and I are working on.
Maybe do something a little more with the text? In comparision to the other elements i personally (no hate ofc) think the text looks a little bland?
Looks good. Did you create the logo combination?
yup! quite a while ago but yep
background was some screenshot i edited
The logo combo is great. Nice work.
appreciated!
I don't say this much... but I love it!

So, I am trying to create a surrealist composite and yes I am aware there are many glaring issues with this, it is still hugely a WIP with many improvements needed especially on the left side. But I am specifically sharing this to get some knowledge on how I can specifically fix the lighting and unwanted object getting in the way of the characters looking believable looking with their features and the believability of them being inside a building with a mirror in the back. I know what I need to fix I just don't know how to do it so I would appreciate some advice and support.
Thanks!
I recommend looking closely at the shadows in the room to determine where the main light source is. With that in mind, then darken anything that youāve added in specific places to suggest it is being lit by the same light source.
I also suggest adding contact shadows where elements meet. I find this minor addition adds massive amounts of realism.
Bro i dont know what is the problem with u?
Im still trying to find the characters but i think i can't
U think ur characters are proper? They are like 7.5 giants. If u don't know how to things has been done. Done do it.
So i didn't do it....what is the problem then?
Yeahh i mean i can't find the characters online....so i hadn't done it....idk what is the matterrrrrrrš
Good luck with your chat gpt help
Damn man still?
Have a nice evening/day!

@haughty current - This channel is to get feedback on projects. If you want to argue with that other person, do it in a DM. Don't bring your issues here.
How would I go about doing that?
I'm assuming you have the room as the background layer with a bunch of things, including the heads, on layers above it. If that is the case, create a blank layer just above the room layer and using a soft brush paint on the shadows. Or you could create an adjustment layer that darkens and paint on the mask.
People get exposed. People start to get angry.
Whatās the purpose of the extra layer
Sorry Iām still trying to understand a lot of the little intricacies of all these processes
you mean extra layer with contact shadow?
all objects have shadows
hard, soft and diffused shadows add realism to objects in scene
I'm referring to creating a small shadow where objects come into contact with each other.
I haven't mention @spring rune as i know what you're refering to š
bit late over here š
All good mate š
The extra layer allows me to paint the shadow however I like but also not damaging the layer underneath. Notice I can also paint the shadow thin or thick, which suggests that the object is a different distance from the background.
So I create another layer to add an artificial shadow?
That's personally how I would do it. I like to separate things across as many layers as possible. This gives maximum control for moving things around without disturbing other elements.
What is yours opinion on this?
Almost there! - nice work
What grades would you give it?
Looks good and I like the glow.
Personally I feel the shadows are a little washed out and could be a little darker.
How would a shadow realistically look for this object and with this placement
need some opinions on these business card designs. the front designs are all simular just slightly different with the 3rd being the most modest/clean. want some opinions on which of the 3 looks the best, what are some thoughts on the back? everything ive made including the logos so everything can be modified to an extent
Youāve got some great elements there but there is so much going on. Personally I would strip out all of the photos and most of the graphics. I also think splitting the text and making one portion a negative makes it hard to read.
Like I said, your individual elements are strong. If you give them some breathing space I think you'll have yourself a great looking business card.
Jesus - If that's a business card it feels WAY too busy.
You're clearly happy to go with a full-colour print (Which is more expensive than a 2-3 colour print) - So you may as well go 'all out' and skip the white background entirely.
I like the blue and yellow - but not the yellow you picked..
Since it's double sided, not everything has to be RAMMED onto one side. - Let one side focus on the skills/services and the other side on contact details and perhaps "Locations Covered".
Your 'logo' is so heavily over-complicated - I can't tell where the logo 'ends' and the taglines start.
Avoid the 'colour switching' mid-word.... too.
Consider getting some inspiration from other designs online too:
Can you provide some context?
It all depends on where the lightning is coming from

Itās looking cool. Nice work.
For me itās a little overcomplicated with a combination of smoke, particle and liquid simulations. Personally I would choose one or two of these looks max.
Thanks for youāre feedback I just want too know because I get what youāre saying about the smoke but in terms of the liquid simulations do you mean the facial age? I adjusted it a little bit too make him seem older. And also for the particle stuff do you mean the noise I added?
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 266)
My bad. I was using some terms more generally used in the 3D world.
- Smoke: Along the bottom edge
- Particles: The swirling dots in the glasses
- Fluid: The grey blobs upper left
I donāt have an issue with any one component. Itās just that each effect creates a different and competing, for want of a better term, emotion, in the viewer.
is this thumbnail good? what could I improve
That makes sense thanks dude
Gave +1 Creative Carma to @abstract oxide (current: #13 - 267)
No worries. Cheers mate.
Noting that thumbnails can be quite small when viewed, I would personally simplify this design and increase the relative size of what remains. I hope you donāt mind but I had a play with your design. Itās a little rushed but you get the idea.
Tysm you have no idea how much this helped me, I get it itās too much going on and people should see only one thing. You even took the time to put it into perspective, I appreciate it
You are very welcome. Thank you. Best of luck with all your designs.

Who's the 0.82 person? Are they missing a limb or just short?
I'm aware that some countries (I think) use a period Instead of a comma.
hola amigos (work in progress)
looks good, feels a bit empty in the middle
really good typography choice tho
Yep its 9823 players
We use a dot instead of comma
Interesting in Poland we use space or period for thousands and comma for decimals in case 9 823,00
Love it. Maybe another lighter monochrome copy of Icarus and add it on top like a comic book echo movement. Not sure of the 3D treatment of the title text. I like it, but is it coherent ?
Like some countries use the decimal system š

Im pretty new to photoshop and I started doing it for a class im taking in HS and I have to do a composite image assignment. this is a WIP and I would appreciate any critique or suggestions for things to add that are relatively simple or i could follow a tutorial for to figure out.
the second image is just a close up of the spear because I made it with 2 seperate pieces but I cant seem to figure out how to make it look like just 1 thing everything ive tried leaves it with this very obvious contrast.
You can use 'masking' to help blur one into the other.
Alternatively, you could just draw a box around the join and ask Generative fill to handle it for you - but given the fact that you're optionally taking a class, I'm guessing you'd prefer to learn how to do it 'properly'
My photoshop is currently churning through 3,300 photo's on an action/script so it's out of action for another 30 mins or so. - but if you could share your PSD here, I and others might be able to share some tips on how to improve it
Looks a little washed out - the whites are.... light grey... the blacks are... darker grey
@forest nova
General composition is nice though!
Could you review it and let me know where I made a mistake?
masking with what?, ive tried messing with levels and curves a bunch aswell as hue/sat but I cant seem to get it right
Sorry just AFK - back in a bit
no worrys take your time
heres the psd
my first thought was to try using AI features but I couldnt find any in photoshop i watched a couple videos but it never matched in location
i found a couple but they just didnt do anything
@paper sierra - ok back š
I think the "Problem" with the Claw at the end is that the lights & Shadows do not match.
yea i havent been able to make it work
maybe try to flip/ turn around the piece.
I'm having a check of that PSD now @paper sierra
sounds good
Also maybe take a closer look at the directions of the Light and the "blurriness" of the pieces
there are no shadows where should be some and some "glowing" around the left person wher non should be. The moon "reflects" the Light and so should be coming in Light through that big window. Also the fire thing is a bit blurry and also gives a more yellow light reflection.
for the moon should i make it emmit a bit of a beam kinda like a sun
maybe better diffuse light as it is, but look from where the light comes.
alright
Here's a few quick 'fixes'
- Sky less blue/fake
- fire illuminating skull guy a bit more at the back
- Darker road with the moon lighting up the post
- fixed the weapon head
- Removed the bad cut around moon knight
- lense flare added around moon
One moment, let me delete all of what I did and record a video...
that would be great
oh dam lol
what tools did you use I can try and figure it out on my own
one moment, it's a 50mb clip
If you scrub through the video, you'll hopefully see snippets of things you could do... not saying it's all there - I myself don't usually work on composition work - I usually do more technical retouching so you'd think the image was never retouched in the first place...
alright thank you i will give it a try
This looks fantastic. Beautiful work.
Personally I would reduce the spacing between words while increasing the spacing between letters.
The word DANCE looks great.
Have you experimented with having the letters much deeper but they fade out instead of having a fixed depth?
Took a while to get here š
Thanks for for the help, one thing I'd like to know is your opinion of the yellow highlighted text if the yellow is too much I think it is but I also want a way for the word Dance to stand out more than the line coloured in white because that line at the bottom is a bit more prominent than the word Dance because of the black and white contrast

Nice work. I like the progression.
I like your changes to the bottom line of text. While I like the yellow, it definitely draws the eye. Have you considered using a darker colour?
Now that, is perfect
Cheers mate
Looks cool.
Are you supposed to be able to make out the reflection in the eye?
yeaa I tried do a lying body in the reflection in the eye but something didn't come out in the end
thanks!
I think if you reduce the noise a little in the eye you could make out the reflection
is it better now? I will reduce noise later
I can see hints of what it is but no I don't think it's clear what it is.
first time using photoshop, how'd i do yall? šš
Feedback?
the different parts of your image are super sharp and dont look natural. try playing with the lighting and brushing up the selections so they arent as cookie cutter if that makes sense
Nice

New project, guys!
Hi there :wave:, Any feedback about this one? Before/after
You made all of this?
bro it's amazing
Did you make all of that in photoshop or?
Very unrelated but as someone who is trying to learn Photoshop, not as a living but a skill to aid in other ventures, what can I dabble in to become relatively good or anywhere near your level or qualifications?
I would start with small easy steps, and do things that wont scare you off
alright, that's part of the reason why I started with thumbnails, it's the least scariest thing honestly
also I followed your advice and I'm not sure how much bigger the image should have been but it looks much better now, thank you
what do we think?
too big?
I would remove background from that game and make it big enough to reach hands from bottom
Should I get a full size background then for the higher quality for the characters then?
or keep the one I'm using
Also can you elaborate on the reach from the bottom?
You have empty space that actually taking focus from those game characters
Which one are you referring to, the backgrounds or the photo?
but I understand what you mean otherwise
Photo of game characters
alright
Photoshop is having a hard time removing the background without cutting parts of them or half of them
trying the "subject" thingy on select to see if it will be able to do it
suggests?
hello i made another poster and id like some feedback and tips on what to add
yes
This image is very busy with many overlapping elements... If you're looking for a "one click solution", I doubt there is any feature that can do that...(even with refine selection)...Unfortunately you'll have to make some manual selections.
I've been going through the link now that M4 sent me to see if I can find a workaround to this but I'm more than inclined to do the longer manual way if it has the end result I'm looking for.
Looks good. Personally I would be adding a bigger gap between the text and the edge of the page and especially above the text.
The red line and the orange background are extremely similar in colour. Unless this is important I would be changing the line in some way.
Looks good!
I would suggest you:
1- (if it's possible) to move the subject in the right section... cutting the face this way isn't recommended.
2- Try to use a color or shade that gives you more contrast between Text and Background...(Black on charcoal grey gives a low contrast).
It worth a try.
I love the way the grain brings the elements together into a coherent whole.
WIP
Looks cool. Does it need some rain? š
already added it but I wanted to show this off first as I thought it looked really good plain as is, reminds me of that movie poster for the exorcist take a look
I like it. Is this supposed to be a street at night under moonlight? If so, personally I would be darkening big areas to make it feel more like nighttime.
honestly I just tried to merge these images together then i spend idk how many hours designing this
but look at this
I've been stuck figuring out the right amount of blending options for this figure
It's looking good. Personally I still think the shadows need some darkening to give the whole composition a contrast boost.
The addition of the guy is good. If he is being lit from behind, perhaps darken him and put him more in silhouette with a little rim lighting?
I did this originally and thought it looked a lot like a netflix poster and have been try to achieve a similar effect
that's sound my problem has been balancing how much blue for the shadow
let me try and darken him more I wanted send the background to get some critque then once I implement the changes it'll just be the man to get critique on and improve
Spent some time trying to edit a banner for a campaign I'm working on. I didn't draw anything I recolored a base image for this
I hope you don't mind and this is terribly rushed but this is roughly what I meant
no it's fine as artists, visual representation is important
Part of the problem is the highlights on the guy are blown out. Therefore, when you reduce the brightness you are just working with blobs of nothing in the highlights.
Nice recolour. You did a good job getting rid of those outlines from your other post.

Photoshop is so fun, but if anyone knows how to make the words look... Oomphier? I would love to know how to do that
I'm just starting my graphic design journey I wanna be able to make stuff like this even if I can't draw
I wish I could make my own font and make things look cool, I want my players to feel happy and giddy and excited for my writing
Yeah I think the text is a little off-putting being so close to the face.
Perhaps try making the text bigger, white and putting it in the lower left corner as a test.
toned down the highlights by 60, gave a tiny outer glow and rework some of the blending options
Might still a little too blue
Hey that's looking great. Nice work.
Thank You

You're welcome
Like this?
I like it. Personally I wouldn't jam it right in the corner. You do have a lot of room to play with.
If I put it next to the face I feel like it highlights the character more but too close and it's jarring.

Agreed. The text needs a little room to breathe.
Hmmm okay thank u v much

Thank you. Happy to help. Good luck with the project.

I think I like this a lot more than earlier yeah
idk if you see the vision but can you help to achieve this effect
@tropic marsh @latent glen @novel comet
I'm sorry for the ping, unsure if I'm allowed to but I was finally able to remove the background from the chaaracters and made substantial progress.
Overall, how do I make this look better from here?
Reduce the characters, and the X, maybe make it bigger?
I have some other ideas for what to do with the general background but I wanna deal with the characters, and the X and the hands as that is the main part of the thumbnail and the hardest, thanks for all yall advice and help on this so far.

Gave +1 Creative Carma to @tropic marsh (current: #657 - 2)
Looking good
If it were me, I'd make the x a bit smaller and shove everything over the left hand side. Then on the right side I'd add my headline.
did some alternate designs
Someone maybe know why there is black? On other side? How to fix it?
I like these alternatives but I think I prefer your earlier one
Adobe has a Premiere Pro / After Effects Discord server. Did you mean to publish to that?
agreed this feels really show esc like the alternative designs are promotional posters
Like this concept deisgn
Disclaimer I'm not affiliated with netflix and this is isn't a real series
the typograhpy needs a bit more work but I think it's compelling enough
What are you building all this for? A portfolio?
Honestly this is just fun that I'm adding to my portfolio
I've been a lazy artist and now I reached a point where I want to use the gift I was born with
Nice. The reason I ask is because if it is a portfolio you could present multiple versions.
Good to hear
also I think I fixed this up a bit more at least I remebered to add the rain this time š
Adding the rain is probably a good idea... given the title and all š
I like the concept but the blank white background is a little too simple imo, have you experimented with a gradient or something like that?
Welcome to the channel.
Your images look good. Unless it needs to be really dark, I would personally be dramatically raising the brightness and overall contrast of the background.
hey i fixed the placement of his head and adjusted the font but i couldnt really figure out which color i should use for the text to make it more comprehendable and not that punchy and noticable at the same time
would love some more tips
Like this?
Nice work. Personally I would create and/or darken the shadows in the background to get some contrast.
The guy on the left is so dark you can't make out any detail. I would dramatically brighten the highlights to get some nice contrast.
The shadows?
Iām late to this however following on from what @bleak echo said: The art of change is your main message and should be stronger. I would capitalise the words. I would use a more modern font unless the one youāve used is specific to the piece. Lastly brighten the text for legibility š
Ah you mean the blue glow around him?
I mainly mean the clothing
Something like this
currently working on this idea
changed up some stuff
@abstract oxide How about this thumbnail?
What if you go bigger?
