Saw a gorgeous stock and I had to use it.
Sort of a throw back to what I prefer to make, stylistically.
When looking at the finishing product, it feels as if it's sort of making a statement.

What do you think?

Nowhere in particular.
Well first, I'd like the link to the stock :D

But yeah, you got some good things going on here, and they work...liek really well o.o. Aside from the stock being absolutely georgous, the concept is even better, and just love the reds and oranges used here :3. Great balance between the two, if you ask me.
So yeah, I love this, and I can't find anything wrong with it.

I absolutely love the strong reds used in this lp, and the stock just works perfectly with the concepts here.

I am reminded strongly of Final Fantasy 8's Ultimecia, which I think strongly embodies the text: 'magic'.

the stock looks gross and lq.

I stretched it and radically changed the contrast settings/colors.
Original looked like this :

I was willing to sacrifice that though.
Like I said, i loved it too much. And I didn't want to make it smaller or keep it the same size in traditional tag dimensions. (edit) : my original LP was nearing 900 pix, but i just edited it and reduced it to a little over 600 pix. It looks slightly better.

But yea, thanks for all of the comments, guys.
I really appreciate it :3gl

The blurred textures ruin it for me. Would be great otherwise imo.

I'd have to go with CME. The effects look cluttered and messy, and the top of the piece looks way to washed out and lq.

I EXPECT BETTER FROM YOU D:

Stocks not incredibly lq, despite the stretch, just in spots.

If you were going for 'mess & clutter' you succeeded. In terms of quality, it could be sharpened in more than one hands counting of spots.
Its not THAT washed out in comparison to Screen blend mode, I can see where you contrasted, the strength of which gives it enough of a wash out. (just killed C's argument lmao)

Haha, the messiness is essentially a trait that I haven't lost, apparently.
Also, I did try sharpening it and it totally killed the quality that it already had.
The LQ'ness of some of the effects is due to me stretching the hell out of a resource because i liked the texture/saturated look.

I'll just duplicate my resources next time opposed to stretching them i suppose.
Thank you for the comments, everyone.

:)
