It's not me, it's you.

I'm not really sure how I'm feeling about this one. I wanted to try something different
but I'm not sure if I like it or not yet.

Alright, go.

in your absence you seemed to have improved drastically, and I love this new style of yours.

I think though that you may be limiting yourself with this almost template-like composition. From the tags that I've seen of yours, they all seem to have the stock centered, with a close-up on their face.

I would say try experimenting with different ideas, think outside of the box : D

But nice work, nonetheless.

I agree with Crow on the "template-like", but otherwise, I quite like your style also. I wouldn't mind seeing a few less works with that background from the first tag though. I like the second version of this incredibly much so, the blue background definitely suits the composition of the tag, and very complimentary to red/orange/etc. of course. And it's helped the clouds stand out more too, which sems to be more what you were going for as apposed to them blending in somewhat. My only worry is the stock is very... sharp-edged in this. Smudge/Blend it a bit and I think it should look that touch better

holy shit this is nice. Only complant is the stock placement,and that some lighting can help renforce the focal more.

Lovin the style.

My absence? I didn't realize I left. But thanks, and I understand what your saying about the stock placement.
I have a hard time finding flow with anything other then that placement. So I pretty much stay in my comfort zone.
But I'll try to work on that. Thanks!

Yeah, I wasn't sure if I should of added some lighting or not. So that's why I didn't have any. :/
Thanks for the feedback!


Anymore?

Bottom one is best, but I'd say put a slight gradient from blue to another color on the blue background, and add some smudging or pentooling behind the stock to give her some fill between the background and herself I'd say

Thanks, I'll try the gradient. But I can't pen tool because my photoshop doesn't have it. :/
I have Photoshop 5.0. ( poo! ;( )
But thanks.

Nice job

Try changing up the focal placement so that you have room for more effects

O..O

Wow i am loving this style of yours, and yes like stated above me the stock placement could be better, but everything else is really good, and i must say compared to your last work this is a major improvement..

 

[Efflictim]

I have to say this is really nice, I like version 1 the best.

Very good job saratp.:wink:
