I'm going to move this to the Showcase Booth because you'll probably get more replies there (even though this work isn't completed.)

I think the blur is a little too much blur, though.

Your blur is a little too choppy, and it would be nice to have just a little motion blur, also, I'd look at maybe some splatter brushes

I like the concept but like Dee said, the blur is too much. Also it looks weird since he's just floating there. I suggest you move him down so his knees touch the bottom of the canvas.

Yeah, you should reduce the blur and move him down some. Maybe you could try like some..."retro" brushes? You know, like curvy brushes and such. I like the concept though. Also, I think you should give him more of a "papery" effect since that looks what you're going for. Idk, that's just me. Good job otherwise. thumbsup.gif

Looks cool. I think right now it's a little to organized. I would suggest taking that box and the quote to the right of him and move it so it's like over the guy. Just the edges.

It looks better than the previous one, I'll give you that and yeah, I agree that you should kind of move the quote part near the top right hand corner. thumbsup.gif

I LOVE the background and the quote. I'm not too sure about the photo, but to be honest I don't have any ideas on what would look better. I really like it, though.

I think you need to break the lyrics out of the boundaries. Why contain them when the rest of your image suggests a lot of mess and emotion?

I like the image now, it looks much more complete.

I agree. Much more put together, though I'd like to see the image with a bit more depth. It looks flat.

It might look cool with a couple white splatter brushes behind the papers, although splatters are way too overused now. It may also look like cum.

I think instead of white splatter brushes, maybe some kind of faint, feathery brushes or something. tongue.gif
