Just found the stock online.
I don’t actually know who hideyoshi is or from, so I’m probably missing something :L

Hey, I haven’t been on here in, what seems like months.
So yeh, I’ll just dump any art I do here.
I’ll probably continue to if this thread gets anyone actually looking at it and posting, if not, I’ll probably just let it die or whatever; starting with

I’ll do requests of avatars and such too, but I’m not amazingly active.
My other art can be found here

Haven’t been on this in ages.
Girl is a render I found, a couple of C4D’s in there, but that’s it…

Looking for drawer - for my new online game!
I have a few questions:
What style of art?
Do you have a demo of the game so we can see how it plays etc?
Do you have any other games currently out at all?
I’m sure others will have questions too

Looking much better. Contrast and such looks good now.
Literally, the top-left most part of the tag, just blur, like, a lot.
It is really sharp and has more contrast than the focal, which is distracting. If you don’t know where I mean, ask, and I’ll circle it or something :L I didn’t explain that well

Which style is better?
Personally, I prefer the one on the left. It just looks more appealing because the lines are smoother and the shading is cleaner.

Looking much nicer.
Lighten the face slightly so it stops the text stealing the focal.
And move the text down a touch, so the ‘I’ is near/underish the hand.
Only thing that would still look wrong after that would by the C4D in the top left, which is still stealing some attention as it is a bit brighter than the others.

Two more. For both, got halfway through, ran outta inspiration, finished off as best I could. Not the best renders either.
Quoted so the tags were on the next page ^
Probably just me, I don’t really like the one-colour style.
Tag 1:
Nice compo, basics etc.
C4D in the top left it distracting, blur it, or smudge it, or something.
Sharpen face slightly
Full B+W, then increase contrast.
Add some lighting, atm it is a bit boring, as it is flat.
I can’t tell how good the text is, because it steals the focal atm due to being colour.
Tag 2:
Focal is unclear, because you appear to have moved it to the hand, which is interesting, but leaves the face trying to steal the focal.
Sexy effects btw ;)
Again, the colour annoys me.
Compo is a little weird, I’d move the hand (render, whatever) up more, which might also help stop the face stealing focal.
Add some lighting.

Tried to play around with the top-right to fix it.

I might start digipainting/drawing again

Not sure if this is better.. I might not bother fixing this one anymore :L

The back arm is pissing me off, but I hated the effects I had other it even more.

Removed chips, sorted out/cropped out top-right (the tag was oddly balanced so I just cropped), and fixed up some effects.

Oboe_Passion!! Woo, I do hope you’ll be posting more regularly? :D I can only remember your amazing avatars and such.

Looks solid, is that from scratch? Great textures, and lovely soft colours.

Basic
Textured
Got super bored :L
Shit, those are a bit big [edited to links]
I hate the texturing….

The effects on this are really weak, and don’t really compliment your stock. The overall piece looks really messy. I don’t really like this one either, not a great illustration of your best work IMHO.

I love pieces like this, I know Sasms (who used to use this site) now does a lot of this sort, as I keep in touch with him, kinda.
You look like you have a few parts where your pen work is a bit weak, and there are gaps. Try using a better pen, is all I can say really, I don’t do this sort of art. Keep it up I guess?

New one, my first abstract.
Sexy piece, this is more like it :D
Good focal, nice effects, all that jazz.
Try strengthening the lighting near the lightsource to make the focal a bit stronger, and also the piece more interesting and less flat. A few shadows could be stronger too. (In other words, more contrast throughout)
I really don’t like the black blur on the left side. Crop it or, or better, just remove the black.
Unsure if I like the text. It is a bit distracting, so I’d remove it.
Does messy tag…hates tag
C&C dis shit

Photo Manipulation: MP5 SMG to Sniper Rifle

Dude, just make a single thread to put these in. Don’t have loads of one-post threads that nobody is going to post in; delete these before they hit ten posts, quick.
To be honest, does it really matter??
I’d try make it a bit more obvious that you actually edited the gun, instead of just added a BG. I’d also remove the BG altogether actually, and the text, because they look newbish.
Try to work on something a bit more complex, at the moment you are doing fairly basic photo manip, which is good, but a limited skill that could probably be used much better.

Ehh, shit, I forgot about this… I can’t really do it today, and I’m away for a while after that… I’ll try do it when I get back, so long as my hang over doesn’t take over ;)

I know :L That’s kind of on purpose, but I know what you mean 100%
I’m not going to bother changing it, because I hate it too much.
I actually made it for two seperate ToTW’s, a “internet meme” one and a “Dual style” one, which is why.

Ahh, cheers mmm.
I probably won’t continue to work on it, i think I started out to fail :L
Also the first time I have used a render in ages.

Not really anything serious, just a TOTW, I don’t need/want C&C on that really
