iKiller Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 [align=center]Hello everyone! Today, I attempted my first ever go at the Abstract style, after messing around with Photoshop, and making some, what I must say, awesome brushes. So, I used them, and made this: http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/8302/abstractcf6.png And then after showing it to a friend, he suggested that I remove the text, and overall, make it darker, so I did! http://i40.tinypic.com/2n18gac.png(ImageShack Was Playing Up) So, do you like them, or should I trash them, you decide![/align] °κıℓℓεя°™ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raelen Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 My idea:Keep the lighting of the 1st one and remove the text. You were both half right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKiller Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Thanks! I thought the first one looked better, whats so bad about the text? And unfortunately, I've scrapped the .PSD now... :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raelen Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 The text makes it look less abstract. Abstract is random and often with out form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKiller Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Ahh, thanks, but I also intended for it to be a usable signature. Still, was only my first :P Thanks! Any more comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sbamber Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Second = Phail. First:Some lighting issues, not manyText is bad, take that awayThe border kills itNo flowNo depthThe brushing could be better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKiller Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Thanks Sbamber, finally some tips on how to improve it! It's not meant to have any flow or depth, and the lighting is meant to be random, so it seems that it's the text and border that kills it. Thanks!

Catman25 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 My idea:Keep the lighting of the 1st one and remove the text. You were both half right. I was thinking the exact same thing! It looks good lighter, nice work. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miazo Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Got the idea from me of doing abstract?Dont just use 3 colors, use about 4-5.Put them in all different places and then start.It always has to be light not dark because it kills the dark colors in the sig.If you need any tips or anything on abstract art PM me I can give you a couple tutorials.
