    LC5: Chriss v. Doink

    Maybe you could take to the octagon to settle this spat?

    Wrestlemania28 Blu-Ray Cover

    I like it a lot. It definitely looks like something WWE would be proud to put on shelves. If all of the wrestlers are separate renders, good job on the proper sizing and tones.

    What do you do for a living or what are your future plans?

    I am a health information technology consultant, which is basically managing networks, software and workflows for medical offices. I like my job, but if I could do it all over again, I think I would be a marine biologist. I know there isn't much money in it, but getting to spend time in the...

    What do you look for in an ideal partner?

    I just look for someone that is going to want me for who I am and not who they want me to be. If they can accept/appreciate my positive traits and not think it is their job to fix any flaws, it is fine by me. I have to agree that it isn't out of the realm of possibility to date out of your...

    WWE RAW 23rd April 2012 - LIVE Discussion

    I agree the CM Punk segment was good. I knew that was coming. He did mess up on the backwards alphabet when he was trying to be perfect, but it was all good anyway. I have renewed distaste for Tensai. His character simply doesn't work for me at all. I hope he pops a Tic Tac before doing...

    Wrestlemania28 Poster

    I like it. The render of Rey is cool ... too bad he wasn't at WM28. :) The Rock and Cena renders are ok, but you may have wanted to make sure they were more similarly sized. Cena looks smaller and I think the two were supposed to be focal points with the lesser characters in the background...

    What Have You Been Reading Lately

    I am reading a post apocalyptic zombie book called The Dead by Charlie Higson. Pretty good.

    Leo Messi

    I like it. I second the comment of the text. Perhaps splash some complementary color around or in it.

    Lord Tensai

    I am not a big fan of his at all. I am fairly new to WWE after not watching for several years, so I have no past history on Tensai to go by. As a new character to me, I don't like his act or presence.

    Mess around with a few new learned tricks.

    The background effect looks cool. For me, that color stripe just ruins it. It totally takes the focus off of Jericho and HE actually looks out of place in the scene. Try putting him on top of the color stripe layer, like the crude example below. See how it automatically makes Jericho a focal...

    Mess around with a few new learned tricks.

    Did you try it with the majority of it being color and the stripe B&W? It just looks all out of whack to me
  12. IA-SteveB

    YES! YES! YES!

    I am not liking the background that much either. There are better ways to do depth of field. The blurred render on the right side doesn't need to be there. The concept is nice, but the background needs some work.

    CM Punk banner

    I was kind of going for a smoke effect rather than lighting, but it didn't work out so well. :) I'll keep working at it.

    CM Punk banner

    Not sure I am done with this one, but oh well. I kind of lost my train of thought half way through. I was trying to go for a saturday morning cartoon look. Comments welcome.

    WWE WWE Merchandise

    Not a big fan of that shirt. It kind of reminds me of those tuxedo t-shirts from the 80''s. Don't get me wrong ... it is a funny shirt, but not one I'd wear outside the house.

    How was I supposed to know? I was just giving a tip or two, but I know better now. Good luck.

    LC4: Andrew v. Defiant-Sensei

    The Mortal Kombat theme is cool, but I do have to agree that the cartoon renders don't fit well with the real characters in the selection screen. A lot of work went into putting that together, so I commend you. Perhaps a better choice for the character selections would have been shots of WWE...

    LC4: BDC v. Doink

    My vote goes to Doink. The renders are just ok quality. I would have spent more time getting the renders to match each other with the lighting and skin tones. Try to imagine them all in the same room affected by the same lighting. It is fiddly, but you can get it with some experimentation...

    Dante (Devil May Cry)

    Pretty good. I would do some brush work to blend the render in with the background a bit. Maybe have some reddish brushing around his legs so he looks like he is a part of the red swirls.

    My recent work

    You would do well to review and practice some signature tutorials. Unless it comes totally natural for you, you won't get anywhere churning out sigs that are simple and look the same. I mean this with the best of intent because we all have to start somewhere. Do a google search for photoshop...
