    hell yea^


    and if ALL you can do is "simplistic" works then you haven't put in any effort in the trial and error of making other styles visually pleasant. sorry, this is what happens when someone's hard work goes unnoticed and unapreciated time after time.

    ill try a beserk banner...

    Arch I wasn't dissing your stuff, it almost always looks great... I was dissing laziness and the fear of branching out in different directions.

    Here's another one about Soul Eater



    I messed with a couple different concepts i'm not used to with this one like lighting and exposure but i think it turned out pretty well

    I also tried using black scanlines on the left and white ones on the right to make it more interesting ( the whole banner spins around that black and white concept i guess )

    Any thoughts?

    PS: This doesn't mean i'm done with the first one but i'm still waiting on complich's opinion

    It seems a little blurry, but I like the idea behind it.

    I am gonna try a Tower of Druaga one later. Maybe I can post them by tomorrow. Maybe I will also do a quick Kannagi one using an old wallpaper idea I used before.

    first one is cool... I wanted to comment on that banner anyway and suggest that you make the 2 faces on the sides a bit more visible and that's what you did in the first.

  11. #131
    I just saw a Afro Samurai one that is added already, so forget about that one from my part.

    is looking great arch, just two thoughts come to mind;

    lower the contrast a little not so much on the renders but on the places that look overcontrasted... the really bright spots that lack any detail.

    the fractal background is tight, im feelin it, i think it'd look better and help draw attention to the faces in the BG as well as the focal renders if you blurred the fractal layer in spots where you think needs it. mix it up, but make it flow together.

    But the over-contrast is what i love about that look

    And blurring effects don't sit too well with our fellow admin complich

  14. #134
    true...

    well..

    the white lines on his left are out of place cause nothing else is that bright. not saying to take it to the other extreme of it being dull, but find a nice middle ground.

    just some ideas, if you disagree thats cool too its your shit :P

    Ehh, I'm not like adamantly opposed to blurring effects. I just think that it sucks to overuse them.

    I made modifications to both them



    Made the contrast softer

    Eliminated that excess lighting on the left

    Positioned the text a bit more to the left



    Changed the text

    Made the blood and his eyes more realistic, thereby delivering more focus to them

    Made the scanlines a bit more transparent as to make the overall banner look more "clean"

    Changed the lighting in the background to increase the contrast between the black and the white

    both are pro. nice work brotha.

    The death the kid one is really good. Just lessen the contrast on kid's face a bit. I kind of cant see his face clearly anymore.

    I'll see if I can take up any of those requests today. Been rather busy with web development.
