Signature/Small Works Showcase

[Keaton]

No, the name was definitely not stolen from ZU.

Now, post your works here.  You may post anything you made here, as long as it adheres to forum rules, and you must receive two comments (constructive ones) on your work before someone else is allowed to post their piece of work.

Any unnecessary posts here will be deleted.  Any flaming, trolling, or derogatory comments will result in a stern talking-to, or even a warning.

This is the Art Nazi's dream thread.

[Fishalicious]

What do you mean by small works? Pixels, small pictures, signatures, etc.? Sorry if I'm bugging you, I'm just so excited to have this up and running XD

[Keaton]

Erm, well, anything you've made yourself is possible to post here.  For instance--



C&C (Comments and Criticisms) please.

And no, I won't be entering this into the Brawl contest.

I could if I wanted to, though.

[Fishalicious]

Oh, okay. I thought there was a size limit. XD

Well, I'll post mine now, I guess.



C&C. It's supposed to be the Wormhead dog from Silent Hill 1. (Otherworld) The bandages aren't supposed to be present, though, and I think the worms are supposed to be lighter and pinker.

Unless of course I was supposed to reply to your picture first, in which case:

I really like it, but below pit's name, there is a rather large, empty space. While it could be perfect with the negative space there, I think that you could make Pit's name larger, or have the "P" follow the arc of his sword/bow. Or, for another approach, you could outline his name in black, one pixel, and make the actual name transparent.

[Keaton]

I didn't need comments, but thanks anyhow.

I like your drawing, but I'm going to have to say that the colors blend in too well with the background, and the black pencil strokes in the bg distract from the focal point.  I really like it, though.

I bet you agree

[Hi no Seijin]

Um, I don't see Gamefreak posting here, and that's Fisk, not me.  Are you feeling okay?

Now that I've posted here, I feel that I need to comment on the pictures posted, even though I have nothing to share.

To Tacheon, awesome pic.  I agree with Fisk's suggestion for Pit's name.

To Fisk, am I supposed to see worms?  Because I kind of see fur.  Either way, I like it.

To weetle, that's disgusting and I suggest you find other, less repulsive, ways to artistically express yourself.

[Keaton]

Weetle, not only did you not give another comment to SNHNS before posting, but that picture was tasteless.  Don't do it again.

I make the backgrounds from the images of the people.characters.  It's all manipulation.

[DW]

Big Daddy, yours is fantastic, I love how the name looks, gives him an edge. Love the expression too, although I don't think you drew it ;)Just a comment.

SNHNS, it's beautiful in a creepy, nightmare-inducing kind of way. You know what I mean. Silent Hill wasn't meant to make you giggle.

Also, what was Weetle's picture...?

[Zoratunic]

Well, here's my first work with GIMP. Nothing to extreme.



Was gonna put a picture in there, but I couldn't figure out how.

[Keaton]

It's not too shabby.  Don't let the text be transparent like that, but the texturing/C4D in the background is nice.  I kind of like it.

Add a border, reduce the size of it, and in order to place an image in, go to Insert>Image as Layer, I believe.

[alical]

I like it, maybe sharpen the lines of the text and change its colour to blend a bit more. But good for your first attempt on GIMP.
Here is my sig using Tacheon's tutorial:

[Hi no Seijin]

I like it, but there's a lot of blank space that I think you could fill up with interesting text.

[Keaton]

I concur.  Do you have Photoshop, because a lot of tutorials don't translate into GIMP very well...

[alical]

No, Paint Shop Pro, so there was a lot of stuff I couldn't do on it.
