Dont Let Go - Garry's Mod - Facepunch Forum

Well i think this is my best so far well most of my pictures arnt very good but whatever. I dont know why but those PMC models are hard to pose lol. [IMG]http://i36.tinypic.com/fp2zpc.jpg[/IMG] o and i dont think you can see it but at the bottom of theelevator shaft there is a dead soldier. The dead guy [IMG]http://i34.tinypic.com/33w1dzo.jpg[/IMG]

This image is very dark and blurry, this makes it rather difficult to form a hypothesis for what is occuring. If it were not for the title, it would be nearly impossible to understand the situation of the soldier in this image. I am constructive.

i guess i overdid it with Super DoF D:

I approve of both. Cam angle on the first is excellent. Blur is a bit heavy though. Nice and gory on the last one. You keep this up. There are really good. Have a palette.

[QUOTE=Hobojoe183;18254609]i guess i overdid it with Super DoF D:[/QUOTE] DoF is dumb in general. Don't use it. Oh no an X is eating my message.

Kinda reminds me of the elevator scene in Poseidon for some reason. I really like the camera angle on the first picture too.

Thanks :) [editline]11:15PM[/editline] well i was just playing around with super Dof because in my other pics everyone keeps saying use super dof lol.

It only serves to hide stuff you're too lazy to make look spiffy yourself.

dof is to help you focus on the main idea of the picture

I think it's perfectly fine, all the other bitching going on in here is mainly just cause it's not UB3R 1337 like other kids who spend 5 hours on one pose then another 10 hours editing it.

[QUOTE=H4lf-D3ad;18254974]dof is to help you focus on the main idea of the picture[/QUOTE] So you're basically saying that in order to have a certain area of your screenshot to be the focus of the image you need to blur everything else?

[QUOTE=Mutation;18255002]So you're basically saying that in order to have a certain area of your screenshot to be the focus of the image you need to blur everything else?[/QUOTE] Its to help the eye find an especific location. EDIT: I completely agree with Rastifan, first angle is great.

I think it looks pretty great. It could be better, though, but what couldn't? Besides Collateral.

It's a common tool use'd in photography, which i'm sure you wouldn't know a thing about since the only "photographs" you take are probably only from gmod.

I do know what I think doesn't look good.

[QUOTE=Mutation;18255123]I've never claimed to know anything about real photography and I never will.

Well we can't be entirely sure if there are any mistakes with the posing because it's too dark and blurry. 2. I'm no expert, but shouldn't an image that has been custom made already have the main focus be what the intended focus is without blur? I can understand if you can't get a good angle in real life, but isn't it a bit lazy to take a screenshot and then blur it with the excuse that "I couldn't get what I wanted you to look at focused on enough, so I just blurred everything else"?

[QUOTE=bud389;18255954]1 - I don't find it that dark at all. 2 - What?[/QUOTE] 1. Fair enough 2. I'm saying that you shouldn't have to blur a GMOD screenshot since the focus should already be on the what you want in the screenshot.

Mutation is 100% correct.

[QUOTE=Mutation;18256017]2. I'm saying that you shouldn't have to blur a GMOD screenshot since the focus should already be on the what you want in the screenshot.[/QUOTE] blur adds depth to pictures and gives them a more dramatic feel. What your saying is that no screenshot should ever need blur, which is wrong.

The blur in this picture is shit. That's a fact. Let's leave it at that.

Good idea, Pretty good execution, too.

[QUOTE=ChestyMcGee;18266027]The blur in this picture is shit. That's a fact. Let's leave it at that.[/QUOTE] Well if the blur is bad in your opinion what should i have done with effects to make the picture look better?

reduce the blur amount, posing seems okay-ish. that's all actually.

[QUOTE=stea1th;18291617]reduce the blur amount, posing seems okay-ish. that's all actually.[/QUOTE] ok i will try that next time thanks.
