Yooo. I thought I'd drop my SOTW entries here for posterity.
SOTW #19: Two Colours
Highly difficult to create. I was concerned that voters would be concerned about whether the entry had
exactly two colours or not, so I tried as best as I could to stick to only two colours. As evidenced by darky's sig, though, it's more a question of whether the sig looks nice, not whether it fits the theme exactly. Gotta work on that. Still, two-colour sigs probably aren't my thing for now.
SOTW #20: Touhou
Not sure about this one. I was trying to mix a few new effects I'd been trying out, namely, emphasis on the focal through blurring and desaturating everything around it. The swirly brushes were overdone, I must admit. I've sworn off stocks ever since.
SOTW #21: Angels & Demons
Tried another new style for this one, that is, smudging. I'm still pretty rough at it, and I'm not really satisfied with the result here, but the only way I can go is up.
Also, if anyone has any tips or tutorials on how to blend renders in with a background, please do help. :*blush:
