LP, I could use some suggestions. Underwear-scared 9-year-olds need not apply [PG?]

I really wanted to duplicate the smoke brush effects on the other side of her, but the lighting didn't work out. It feels kinda incomplete, and I didn't put much effort into it since I made it at like, 11:30.

cutoffs on the smoke brushing ruins the entire thing IMO

[-DG-]

It doesn't even have compo.... It lacks any good stuff. The brushes ruin it, and the focal is somewhat LQ

[JG.]

Overcontrasted much? Mehish, the smoke brushing being cut-off is pretty annoying.

Well, the concept is fundamentally flawed I guess. I tried doing a brush based thing, tried not to brush whore it, brush whored it and messed it up. I think the top half is better than the bottom, and cropping it could help, but maybe I should just scrap it. Opinions?

[Exyst]

Scrap IMO.

 

But it's your piece, do as you wish.

[TVL]

I'll scrap it.

Compo is how nicely all the effects and elements of the piece go together. Therefore virtually every piece, even a solid black background, has compo; does not necessarily have to be good compo though =p
