So, I had an AP Art History project, where we have to make an illumination with photoshop and it could be anything. As long as my initials are hidden in it. So, I decided to do it on Hayden of course.

I don't think it's my best but it's just an art project for school. I liked messing with the lighting, it was fun, lol. This is more like a fun/test project for me because I finally get the idea of the pen tool! Haha. Don't mind the text btw.



Opinions. C&C.

This looks gorgeous. I'm not too sure if I'm digging the pink, though...Not sure why. I usually like random splashes of color.

By the way, where are your initials hidden? I looked all over for at least five minutes, and the only thing I could see that might be something is the lines in the background.

Wow this is f*cking amazing, Sang. I agree with Gabi on the pink though. It's kind of like you have two themes going on. Either way I like it. It's great!

Are your initials on the bottom on the bar?

Very nice, Sang. Her left arm is a little weird to me, but other than that, and the pink seeming just slightly off, it looks fantastic. (The pink thing is just a personal issue with me, I'm not terribly fond of pink :p)

That shade of pink is a little bit off, but not to the point that it ruins the rest of the graphic. Nice job on this, Sang.

I could just be stating the obvious here, but is your first name's initial supposed to be the pink link curving around Hayden's body?

Where the initial? I know it hidden but give me some hints. LOL.

I think hayden is gonna be the subject for many project to come. I love the grid background and love the colors so much.

I like it.. Except there's one thing bugging me.
Is the background just some texture you got? Because it seems like it to me. ><

I kind of don't like how my eyes draw more attention to the background because it's so lovely than Hayden haha.

Thanks guys. (=

Well, yeah the colors are completely different but I don't mind because it's an AP Art History project. I don't think people know that much about photoshop, composition, etc. (x So it's just a fun project. It's actually purple but I put it the settings as pin light. I was going lighting crazy.

Actually, I used a photo of hayden that already consisted the initials. The S is her hair, just up-side down. The V is obviously her fingers (index/middle). I didn't want to find a way to integrate my initial because that would take too much work since I did it the day before it was due. Hah.

As for the background, they are actually textures from hybrid-genesis (the textures are just on repeat). I didn't want to create a whole new background, too much. It's probably because this project is only like worth what? 30-50 points?

This project only took me like less than 2 hours.. Such a procrastinator.. lol

Wow I was so off on my guess about your initials placement.

Have you gotten a grade on it yet?

I think it looks great! Yeah, the only thing bugging me is the pink-green clash thing but at the same time it's still awesome. Great job. _smile.gif thumbsup.gif
