Third page! . Well, I really like claymore so I did a signature of the lovely galatea . I came up with some new effects accidentally by messing around . Basically, I smudged the render, duplicated the layer a couple of times, set one to dodge behind the main render for lighting, and set the other to color. It made the center gray/black and white and made it look like the color was taking over the forest. I changed the color with some gradient maps though, cause I wanted to go for a red/orange light, kinda like a sunset. Might use the burn tool for the edges, for last finishing touches.

I tried using light textures and fractals for effects. I wanted to keep the sig simple, because I didn't want to distract the focus at all. But I also wanted it to look good. Color adjustments took me at least 3 hours to do and it was just a b****. Anyways, I'm 90% pleased with the outcome; it could've been better. The light texture could've been more visible, but due to the practically white bg, it became less visible. I couldn't do anything except make the bg darker, which I didn't want to do. This is when having PS, which probably has a few more abilities/layer modes to use can help . 歌幂天道! 狸猫王道! Don't worry if you don't know what I'm talking about .



Wow Renn-Kun you're really good, I love em!
