Digital Art Out of my slump?

Tried something totally new since I wasn't out of my slump. Am I still in it or have I found something new?
CnC?

v1


v2- no black background.


v3- gave everything a type of shadow.

 

I really love your new style and the last one is the best to me. The first two are nice but seem flat and a little dead as there is a lot of block colour. The last one is really three dimensional and would not be out of place is a professional print set. The transparent parts add to this and make it a triumph. You are definitely back nra!

 

Before I CnC, I need to ask: Are those just brushes you used? Because if they are... Well, it doesn't seem like you did too much. :l

 

I like it. Very unique, and the it truly does show the saying: "A picture is worth a 1000 words." So nice, the colours are good too, the size is a bit too big, but its still nice =] Slump finished xD

 

Yea most of it is brushes because I wanted to do something really quick and simple but look at least a little nice.

 

'Kay, just wondering. I watched a video somewhere of someone making stuff like that with a path tool and... It was amazing. O_O

Anyway, version 3 is the best. It gives a certain 3-D element to it, but I think for a better one you should give the clouds a gray tint, then add some lighting, preferably a radial gradient with a black background for a stronger effect. That'll make it a little less slapped on. I'm not really too in love with the things hanging off the huge tree thing in the center.

 

Thanks for the CnC everyone. I just wanted to get a feel of how I wanted everything to look. I may try using the path tool instead of brushes next time because I also saw a video like what Misty was talking about, it was simply marvelous. Though the path tool and I aren't the best of friends, we shall make it work....or else =D

 

Tell me if I'm wrong, my L tag inspired you? xD It look's similar to it lawl.

It's good, but simple. Try making it mroe sleek. Some of the transparency looks choppy. Otherwise, GJ.

 

Personally I like v1 best. <_>

The last one kind of looks like paper cut outs stuck on the backround to me, lol. But I guess I'm in the minority. ;P
