I give you: The black in the back works out really well. The contrast is great. And.... Is that your name in the back?
Ooh, this is pretty nice. I like how the text is actually faded, really adds a nice touch! I think the white lines are pretty cool, they work quite well. Though it might be me, I think the render is a bit low quality. Anyway, great work!
I love the background. The Black and white goes great but the "fade" I guess you put around Riku looks weird. Thats the only thing that bothers me, but besides that I like it.
I probably might be the only one, but I don't think the black space goes that well, it is to me at least not very pleasant to look at. Then again, it might just be me. I do however like the white lines, they work well in my opinion. I'm a sucker for faded text aswell for some unknown reason. Well done Noroz~
The black space seems a bit empty to me, but you helped with that by putting the text and white lines in there. Personally the text itself could be blended into the background better, but again, that's just me. Overall, I'm liking the style you pulled off with this. The theme of darkness certainly works well with the Riku stock you chose.
I really enjoy this. I think you did great with the black and white, and that tad bit of gray up in the corneer. The colors work together very nicely, and I also think that the black space on the side works pretty well. And did you blur riku's hand a bit in the middle? Because it kinda looks that way
Thanks. I do have both Noroz and Faded there, if that's what you mean. Thank you! Regarding the render, I think it's my blending that has made it seem a bit low quality. The quality isn't bad. Thanks! Yeah, the fading thing is a result of attempted blending pissing me off, haha. I tried to blend it, but I went a bit too far. It is indeed a bit empty. Thanks! As mentioned above, a bit empty. I was struggling with the text a bit. I use mostly overlay/soft light on the text layer, but there is barely anything in the background that will make the text actually show, using that "technique". Thank you, darkness was basically what I was going for, haha. Thanks. I've done quite a bit to the render. I think it's a total of four layers. I use overlay, soft light and color removal. In addition to that, I did use the smudging tool on one layer blur on another one, which has probably led to it being blurred.
Pretty decent, my only suggestion is making the tag is a little bit more brighter? In terms on depth so riku could blend more with the tag and not stand so much out like a sore thumb. The text could use a different font maybe, but good job.
