Desolate Poster

Hey fellas...


So I thought I would try my hand at a poster. Sorry Plank and Zef, has no triangles lol but it's quite abstract.

The mountain planets where all created in Ps using fantastic mountain stocks and the warp tool.

Hey Inkz.

I really love the composition here. The angels and the focal point are working really well.

I wonder if it's playing it a little safe though in terms of colors? I don't know if you're going for the less-saturated feel for this piece, but I couldn't help jumping into PS and having a little play around.

I'd love to see you bring what is a very strong composition 'to life' with some intensity.

(this may be a little overdone, but was a quick play around in PS):

"Frickin' laser beams."

It does feel a bit too sterile. Tomross' version is adds much needed depth and color, particularly when there is lack of contrast between the planet and its moons.

I like you're version Inkz just my personal opinion it looks icy,cold and the turquoise and grey type colors are really complimenting

Supposedly this is a teaching channel why do you guys constantly post images that you played around with and piece together without explaining how you did it? At one point or another don't you ever get tired of just showing off?

ForeverFallenAngel: Yeah I do really like Inkz's version, it has a great palette. I guess it all depends on the desired look. As with most images there are a variety of possible outcomes. I just wondered how it would look of the planet structures appeared to be floating in space themselves.

Inkz, I personally like your rendition which steps away from the conventional depiction of traditional space scenes, much like what has been suggested by our newest self proclaimed expert. I believe that you did this intentionally which demonstrates why your such a visionary and not stuck in the rut of average.

I like the cut of your jib young sir:mrgreen:

The reason I like his version is due to the ice,mountains have ice n snow caps not fire. So maybe change to volcanoes instead of snow caps then I probably would of gone with the red. I love the colour tho and nice to see a different perspective.

IMHO, both Inkz's and Tom's are good, but in very different ways. For example, Inkz's (... or is it Inkz' ) could be a very good choice if text and other elements were to be added.

Inkzs' would imply more than one Inkz.

I can agree with the sterile or color comments, but I like it. The only thing I would like to see is one of the lasers going behind the globe.

Excellent perspective Inkz. By what I think is no more than the sizing of the pyramids, you have created a fully three dimensional composition. Maybe the TomRoss coloured version has a tiny bit more impact? I am also visualizing the beams crossing in the same place with a star burst.

"Inkzs' would imply more than one Inkz."

But I want to know about "Inkz's", not "Inkzs' ". :evil:

Then, of course, there is also, "Inkz' ", which, now that I think about it, might be the best choice.

Ahh, such weighty questions.

[Inkz]

Thanks you lovely lot...

Not used to all this attention lol.

 

[Tom Mann]

Anything for you, me dear. LOL.

PS - I forgot if I said this before, but if I had to choose, I would go with your original version. - T
