Updated Image: This is my latest image, after another thread which i have asked to be deleted as im keeping it all in this thread. So basically everything underneath here is trash, i don't like it and it was early work and i didn't have the correct software to do so. Now i have what i need and have now finished my first piece after the criticism i have got. If you could would you comment on my new image above, i hope i have done ok after the comments, please start with new image cnc: then leave your comment, thanks. Original: Edit on the left: Right second attempt My first so Criticism is needed thanks.. Update: Ok thanks to the edit, this is what i have changed right. Thanks, what software is that on? Fireworks, Gimp or Photoshop. Other Image: After listening to all your criticism, i decided to change the design, is it better or should i have just re-edited the original? Also do you think the lighting effects are ok? As I'm using fireworks i choose to burn and highlight certain areas as well as using a circular gradient.
Try using Gradient Tool. Choose FG to transparent, and chose radial as the style. Then make the gradient while on a new layer ontop of everything else. Either change the opactity or change the layer type to Soft light. sorry if it's too cofusing
