It's okay, your looks will get you through it

[kevlar jens]

You should scrap the columns with "portfolio, contact, webcomic" and just use the portfolio site as the index page, imo.

I'm done.

Ashamed to have done orange/teal like Michael Bay... but I wanted to be true to the lighting of the room as it was when I was stood in it watching the band.[/QUOTE]

It's pretty well drawn, but the whole thing is kinda... stiff u know. it doesn't even look like the two guys are in the same room. No atmosphere.
That brown line going on in the background is pretty discracting, I have no idea what it is as well as the rest of the ventilation thing in the background, it just doesn't fit.

This picture has a smooth feeling, and really looks like Team Fortress 2'ish.
I really love it.

I'd bitch about sunrise not working that only the posts in front are magically lit and far ones are not. Looks more like the psots have lights on them not like they reflect light

[editline]3rd March 2011[/editline]

I think the sunset is fluked. only nearby posts are lit by sunrise, further ones(which should be lit more than ones in front or something, idunno) are not lit at all. Seems liek the posts are glowing rather than reflecting sun.

[editline]3rd March 2011[/editline]

tasty automerge, also tomorrow expect sort of a dump of stuff from me.

[Detlef]

I bet the ones in the back gets saturated because of the fog/atmosphere

[editline]3rd March 2011[/editline]

But i see what u mean

He's just holding a giant white plate behind the camera litting up the entire pole and signs. Obviously.

The main problem is that the front pole has highlights and different placed shadow, none of the others have highlights.

[QUOTE=Rusty100;28393774]

the original true grit is awful and john wayne is horrible.
[/QUOTE]

What? I agree it's overrated and so is wayne, but you can't say flat-out they're horrible. It was an alright movie and Wayne's a pretty good actor.

[Smeetin]

I don't know about Detlef's site (or Rusty's mock-up), it is passable and functional, but it is quite bland and generic. It needs more texture somewhere. I realize you will probably want your artwork to be the focus of the website, but that doesn't mean the rest of it has to be bland, it could be sleek instead.

A couple examples (don't have time to make a mock-up sorry, not that you care :P):

As an artist you have so much potential in web-design, being able to design original artwork for backgrounds and assets is invaluable. Use your skills for something else than the thumbnails and examples within the site; something foundational such as a header, background, or footer.

[QUOTE=Rusty100;28393774]
ALSO STRIDER can i make a suggestion
for the credits on the poster, try Futura Condensed (then maybe condensing it more with photoshop)[/QUOTE]

That looks way better, thanks.

'Pretty good' sure, but Oscar worthy for that performance, no.

I don't know what would fit that actually, just make sure it is bigger than the current one
