Are you sure you did this?




Because it seems like a pro did it. Admiring hard bro, maybe you can teach me your ways sometime.























































not srs.

 

I like the overall concept. My only issues are the color and font of the text you used in both sigs. Now, I'm not an artist, so I can't give any pointers, its just personal taste lol Overall, these look great and you should seriously stick to it bro.

 

Please know how to use primary (Red, Yellow Blue), Secondary (Orange, Violet, Green), Tertiary (Red-Orange, Yellow-Green, etc). Also know about complementary colors (They are usually on opposite of a color wheel such as violet and yellow, green and red, orange and blue). It is great to know which colors you want to use but also to know what colors expresses. Will you use warm colors (Red, yellow, orange) or cool colors ( Green, blue, violet)?

That and then there's monochromatic (variations of the same colors with different intensity and value) and analagous (Colors that cycles throughout the color wheel that is next to one another) and Triadic (Three colors of equal distance on the color wheel). Learned this in college and I think it is best if people know how to use colors. If you know what colors to use for the render to blend in with, then you can get the effects that you want.

1.

Not great. See, black is used as a shade color to lowers the value of a picture or object. Hues, values and intensiy are all important properties of colors. You have a lot of black but then there is the white mist-like effect you have by Xemnas, which is not really working well at all with the black. Since Xemnas is white and black, having a grey or silver color background would benefit more. Not only that, the black background is in its pure form but that white mist (Or is it grey), it is dull tto me. The blue text will never work because it is a cool color though its hue is darker than normal. That and the wierd effect of that blue light at the bottom left along with the green and red effects that you have is not in harmony with one another. You have too many different colors.

2.

Blue, blue-violet and violet. Nice colors... but the render does not fit with the background. It would be different if you changed the color of the render. Brown and green on Goofy does not work well with the color of the background. Text needs to be blurred in my opinion. Right now, the emphasis and attention is not on Goofy but is more on the background in my opinion.

3.

... Where did the light blue/blue green effects in the background came from. If you were aiming for a Triadic harmony background, yellow would be great with the blue background instead of silver/grey. The text red is not working well because it is darker. If you lighten the text, it would be better. The flame effect is better.

4.

Not a big fan of the text on the sword. If you want it there, then the color of the text should suit with the render. I like the symmetrical rhythm and pattern that you have going on... until I saw those blue wavelenghts that you had behind Cloud. That and Cloud does not go with the background. He carrying dark colors with no cool colors. The background has cool colors. Change the color of the render.

5.

Best one you made. Well, I think the color of the text should be different. Orange is a warm color and the colors you used in the background such as blue is a cool color. Then there's the part about blending the render but other than that, I like it.

6.

... Meeeh. I honestly do not know what to say about this picture to be honest. You have different colors of gray, black and white in the background. It would be ok when you had the render there since it can fit with the background but once you threw in the red and orange, it really separate the attention on where to focus for me.


Not being rude or anything. Just something that I have learned in college and to me, I think that this kind of criticism is better than to just hear the smae thing over and over about (You should blend this and use the blurring effect here and linear dodge and glamour glow there and there). I just believe right now this semester in college that if you know which colors to use, know what kind of effects the colors brings, know the color wheel and know which colors goes with what, then you will have better blending. Everything else such as Opacity and the like is a last resort to me.

 

Gimp has a Color Wheel for yo to play around with and you can always play around with the Hue, Saturation and Value with the Text. Just play with it. It is not impossible.



You can always move that text to somewhere like the uperr left of the picture. Yellow-green does not go well since you do not have a red-violet color somewhere in your picture. you could change the color of the text to brown just for it to blend in and match with the render. Use Pixlr.com if you want for different types of text if you want.Yellow-Green does not ocmplement with brown or violet. Yellow itself is the direct opposite of violet, therefore it can complement with violet.

It was ok but you had used white, a tint light color, give more attention to the left side of your picture than it is to the right side of the picture, which is shades of black. I would like it better if the brown and purple kept on going behind the render on the right side.
