Several new creations

[TheKendrick14]

So while i was doing my exams i got some moments on my laptop to make some creations:



If you remember my first creation was a Matt Morgan one which sucked because i didn't know much basics about GiMP. I used a DNA picture and faded it into the background. Personally I liked the way then font came out with the images.



If you have ever watched one of Sean O'Haires promos when he was going through his awesome Devils advocate gimmick words would pop up next to him in bold to emphasise what he was saying and ended every one of them with "I'm not telling you anything you don't already know". Basically i looked through his promos and writ all those words into the background repeating over and over and then i put his phrase in front. Probably my favourite of them all.



I love Michael Tarver. At first he wasn't much in NXT but now he has shown off great mic skills since the Nexus angle began. I basically used some cracked brushes on the background with image of him and faded "1.9" into it because he isn't using that gimmick any longer.



Who doesn't love Albert Wesker? He is like the best supervillian ever! I found a pretty good render of him & gave it an outerglow. I used font to fill alot of dead space and made a pretty neat background.

All criticism is welcome.

I'm liking the Wesker sig. Could have done without the disembodied ghost head in the top left. That space would have been fine blank.

Keep working on the Wesker and Tarver images. They look only half done. Also, with the Tarver one, work on your brightness and opacity levels because you don't want it to be too dark, especially when you use black people as a subject. It just hurts the quality.

Will do Mav. Here are three more i made one using a tutorial on youtube.





I'm quite happy with the way this came out. I experimented with gradient maps and grunge brushes. I even used C4D on this but it didn't make a difference really. I also used white and black fuzzy bushes on soft light to make some areas lighter and darker and also used the dodge and burn tool aswell. I made two of this. One with font and one without. The only thing i don't like about it is the way the font came out in the 1st one.



I read a tutorial on youtube for this. Basically it helped me learn how to use C4D. Personally i don't like the render i used as i don't think it suited.I used winter brushes for brightness along with 2 C4D'd one set to overlay and the other to Hard light. I don't think it is good but i tried it for a tutorial.



Nothing special really about it. I just wanted to mess around with putting a gif in an image.

I finshed this one today off the same guy who posted the Infamous one. These are all beginner ones and i will start on intermediate ones soon. Personally i find it shit but i followed the tutorial

[Maveric]

The RE one and the Sephiroth one are your best but now you seriously need to work on the text side of your images. You have the basic design you just need to learn your text.

The Sephi... whatever one looks decent. Text on all of them is horrible, though.

[TheKendrick14]

Can you post a text tutorial? I can somewhat reme,ber either you or 12 posting a text one.

[Maveric]

I can't bother myself to find/make one. Go on DeviantArt for them. At the very least, you can find something worth using as well as tips on placing them where they work.

Ok these are two i made via tutorials in an attempt to help with font:



Ok i used a basic font i found with this but then i used blood spatter brushes and then applied a clipping mask to make the font look a little better. I didn't add a border because it was late when i made it. Oh and Deadpool is badass and awesome.



Ok i really liked how this came out. I used a planet stock and a good few C4D's for this. I used diavlo font and used soft light but it was too hard to see so i duplicated it and lowered the opacity. Overall i feel this is my best work and the tutorials i'm reading are working.

Please i want opinions from anyone.

Wow! This has come along a lot better than your previous work TK! The Deadpool one stood out a little because of the soft brushing you did in the background so that's a major plus.

As far as the InFamous 2 one goes, this was definitely your best so far. That being said, I will say the font is still a little bit too faded but the soft light source in the background has more than compensated for it.

Keep it up!

Awesome thank you for the criticism. I will continue reading more tutorials on proper use of C4D and other such things and 12, A while ago you asked me to make two sigs, one with C4D adn one without. Well here they are.

Also this is the next tutorial i am doing

[Maveric]

Looks simple enough.

[CokaCoola]

Yeah, those are def better, K. Keep it up?

[TheKendrick14]

Well i didn't bother with that tutorial so i just made this myself using brushes and gradient maps. I like how it came out
