My Board

I haven't made anything in awhile so I thought I'd try.

I'm not a big fan of it myself, but other people seem to like it...

I like the sum of all the parts, but the lighting seems (to me at least) to somehow miss the mark. I also think it would look nicer without the text - that font doesn't suit the theme of the image.

I'm not sure if it's the placement of the "sun" or the shadowing on the character, it just seems to me that there should be more shadow on the left side of the face.

That said, I do really like your sparkly background - it blends very well into and around the character. Keep up the good work /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Finally someone who understands why I don't like it lol.You seem to have alot of knowledge about this type of art, do you visit forums that have these, or you a photographer or something?The only things I liked about this tag was that she looks like she was flying up to the heavens and as you said the "sparkly background". /happy.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'^_^\' />

I'm a photographer - check out the [url=\"http://www.killanet.net/forum/The-Darkroom-f73.html\"]digital pix[/url] and I've been known to make a graphic or two as well /bigwink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />

Thought so, photographers and GFXers nowadays are very similar in the way they rate images /happy.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'^_^\' />.

Hmm... I like it to be honest lol. The only thing I don't like is the yellowish light with the purpleness around the subject. If those colors were changed I think it would look amazing, but I don't think those colors really go with each other /unsure.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':unsure:\' /> It looks like a lot of effort was put into it though /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

I don't think I brushed in yellow, it must be one of my adjustment layers that made it like that.Thanks for the comment btw.
