What Exactly Is Pink? by °dalarty 1 week 5 days ago

Not too much for me to say about this wallpaper that hasn't already been said: Dalarty has provided a descriptive walk through all the way from the concept idea, to its execution and ultimately its fruition. And you can really see how that careful planning paid off. But it just goes to show, good ideas take time---and a whole lot of patience!

Well, I'm working on the wall since the hole weekend but I think something is missing. I don't know what but I hope some of you can help me.

Please feel free to comment on my work even if you don't like it ^.^
Tell me everything what's bothering you about this wall or what you like. Maybe you have some ideas for the wall like textures I could use or brushes.

Thanks a lot for your help ^.^

good,i prefer the 2nd one. but the bg looks real and there's nothing special from it, make it more attractive. you can put some text too.

It's great but I think belldandy layer is like floating..
And the lens flare is not that convincing..

Prefer the second 'cause the primary colour is blue.
I think the character doesn't blend enough with the character
and maybe you can add some athmosphere to the earth.
All in all I like it

Like everyone said, the second one seems to be the one headed in the right direction. Belldandy appears floating (not the way you intended) because she doesn't seem to fit in the background. You can bump up some contrast by duplicating the layer she is on they setting that layer to "overlay" or even "multiply". This will increase some contract in the character (depending on how you do it. The idea is nice for a space-type background but the feel of the BG and the image of Belldandy doesn't work since they are both different styles. See if you can find some space, galaxy, starfield tutorials. There are some really good ones out there. This might allow you to better control how your galaxy looks and better customize it to match your image. I don't have a major issue with the light coming from the orb in her hand but you might want to show how that bright light in her hands is affecting the lighting of her. Pick a soft brush, choose a dark blue or some other color you feel works and set the layer to "multiply". Then just brush where you think some extra shading might help.

These are just suggestion but you're on the right track so whatever you decide to do, i'm sure it will come out great. Hope to see the final product soon!
Good luck.

The background is not matching with the character...
did you vectored the character?..
I think that the characters looks really clean and you have a grainy and blurry background there... that's why it's not matching so well..
The same goes for the moon on her hands.. you need to make it look as a less brushed kind of moon.. and the bright lines are a no too... they are too many and they are like too identical.. it would look better with less quantity of lines and more randomly placed.. maybe you can make your own bright lines with more movement
goodluck!!
kisses..
