The Walk

The walk. hope it's OK.



Was Thinking of posting the psd if any one wants it?.. also so that anyone could tell me where i need to improve.

Hears a second version... which is best?

 

[iDad]

I like the first one best, maybe because I know what's missing from the second. I did noticed one thing on the corner of the cement block floor, the grass seems to be over lapping(left side as we look at it) maybe you might want to trim that ? Maybe even on both sides a more defined break from cement to grass..... just a thought, it works either way

I prefer the second. The other path is distracting my eyes from the main scene. But I find something not right with the grass on the right. Did you clone in the lighter , hilite grass areas in the foreground?

 

[inkpad.t]

Both iDad and dv8_fx.... yes i see what both of you mean...

I will re do the grass meeting the concrete area , i did the second version because i wasn't sure if the path on the right did exactly what you said dv8.. distracts the eye over the over all composition.. I dod do a clone on the right and didn't notice that little little bright yellow area ...

I will re do it when i have time and re post it.

Thanks guys..

Hey Inky, I agree with DV8 in that I prefer the second version. I agree with iPop on the grass though. Clean that up and maybe add some hard shadows off the taller grass. (Like the girls shadow)

Otherwise, leave this one alone! Looks fantastic! Most of all, I like that it's not too dark! It's just right.

(For a while there I thought maybe opening the door, stairs, etc,...........but the more I look at it the more I like it the way it is.)

 

[iDad]

iPop .......LMAO..... That's a first. iThink :mrgreen:

Thanks IamSam.

.

yeah. i did think if this, but i decided that the door was closed on the old world where she came up from and in to a new world.

I/m re doing it bit by bit when i get time so will re post it( hopefully soon ).

Thank you.

 

[inkpad.t]

OK so i re did it but a bit changed.

 

[iDad]

That one WINS!

 

[Mitchell]

That one looks great! The grass looks MUCH more seamless

 

[inkpad.t]

Thank you guys.

On the second version i was playing around with the clone stamp tool, guess i need more practice at that one.

So i decided to make a second path on the right where the light is coming from.

That's why i did 2 paths in the first version, I wanted to get the feel that the girl has come up from the world she lived in to another world, There are 2 paths she can take. she appears shock as this world is quite more appealing than the bad old world she left behind, the 2 paths , 1 on the path where she is steadying herself and one on the right where it is little mystical for her and is looking as though she might take that path.

She is in a dream state which is why the door & wall is actually the floor. Or you could just look at it and say it's because it is another world she has enter.

thank you.

Great work, but I would also suggest a longer shadow, as the sun seems to be very low.
