    I'm going to say the top one is better. That doesn't mean it's good.

    Pretty cool. I like the top one more. The red streak on the top on by her right hand(left side looking at her) kinda has too much opacity.

    EDIT: It's kinda like over her, not behind her.

    You have an opaque background, with neon. Why does that seem wrong? The background would be better off white rather than a dull color that nullifies the effects you have on it. In fact, all chances of it looking better are eradicated because of the background. Now if the effects were a tinsy bit different, it would look good. Examples might be graffiti type.

    Wow...Ok, whatever, I don't think that would look good at all.

    You should try changing up your style ice. You have been doing this smudge style forever now and it is really becoming repetitive. The sig is... decent.

    I like the bottom one more because the colors look much better and the C4D's blend more. And how do you select your focal so well? Do you use the pen tool and DIY or is there a function? Cause I dun know how

    Well, actually I did this one a little different, I usually rely more on c4d's than smudging, I smudged and used more c4d's than I usually do, but its essentially the same style. But, I really like the style, and since I kinda lost my touch recently I'm probably going to continue with this style for a while

    Huh?Are you asking how I place my focal?

    No how do you remove the BG or smudge it so well. Cause it basically has the BG deleted or smudged really good. But nvm idc anymore. lol

    I love the second version because of the variety of colours in it. You might want to make the render a smidge bigger so that the render looks stronger than the effects around it, or just to even out the weight of the effects to render ratio.

    Oh, I just use the default smudge settings and smudge it, really not hard

    Smidge? I've never seen that used outside a book before....And you put a u in color, Canadian. Anyway, its a stock which makes that harder to do, I would have to redo gradient maps, erase the c4ds and other multiple operations again if I changed the size.

    Smidge = epic word
    Canada = epic country
    u in colour = win

    Want to do stock exchange for our next signature?
    You get me a stock and I get you one?
    I am too used to using things I know I can work with, I want to try this to see how it evolves the knowledge of PS.

    Um...okay, I'll send you some stocks I find some time, ask anyone I'm an epic stock picker. But the stock I used in this sig is in the op, in the spoiler.

    Sweet, I will start looking for a picture, probably going to look around Flickr, and find a tough one, where I have to create some dimensions and such. I will find the most intense picture of all time.
