An event poster I made, but the event was scrapped because of it's stupid plot.​

The framing is orgasmic.

Ahh, the quality of this picture is what makes it seem a bit bad, but the edit is REALLY done very well. Try to pick up the pictures in .png and with a good quality, and the screenshot of the model as well.

@The Sad Boy, a little bit too blurry imo, but still holds a neat style. I'd still sharpen it all at least a slight bit, but it's a very solid and climatic picture. Nice use of lights, creating just a few spots that can be seen really gives dominance to the darkness, which makes the atmosphere here so great. Gj, love it

@Dallahan, a sort of "blocky" style is still popular and widely known for being good, and this one right here is just a proof to the thesis. Cocky smile with that upward tilted head and glasses are a neat touch, and a simple style without too many details is imo a good choice. I'll to that

@RGB, crop that dog and sell it as a shirt design, people would buy it, me included. I seriously hope you're going to monetize your skills one day, if you haven't already. obviously

@TheInnkeeper, adding background is nothing more than just layering bricks on a wall. You've got both lighting and faceposing right here, without any issues, so I'd focus completely on scenebuilding right now. I was always too lazy to make gigantic scenebuilds, but simplistic work is sometimes all you need. You could try to rework this one by simply putting few little scenes, each lit by a single light, surrounded by darkness, so that it kind of suggests that what you have in the background is either thoughts or backstory of that character of yours. Also, using already made maps and throwing a little bit of your own props can make one hell of a poster, and is way simpler than building from ground up, so you could try that one as well. I'm not a scenebuilding expert, but feel free to hit me up anytime through Steam, I'd be happy to help fam

@Antloin, jeez, you're getting better with these posters day by day. Great atmosphere and editing of that text, both are simply stunning. All I could maybe add, would be increasing that dim light settings a bit, so that it wouldn't be so dark, but it's just a thought. Great work, as always anyway.

Just in case anyone was confused I'm not abstaining from every competition from now on, only that one week.
I'll probably post something soon in the coming weeks, but still, just don't count me out if I post again in the coming weeks.

Yippie

I'm banned from winning but that's ok

And I don't currently make money from it, no

Gotcha, cheers.

I had Max helping me w/ lighting on that one, it being my second SFM pose ever. I'll see how I can do with Scenebuilding later tomorrow, thanks for the feedback.
