peter Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Hi jakezhang, welcome to the forum. Got to say that the scratchy textures are spot on. How did you do it? As for your layers/blending modes, they are really effective at giving depth to the picture. Quite moody and textural. :) As for shrinking images, did you mean dimensions or file size? If you meant file size, then my preferred technique is to export as a png/Jpg and reduce to 30% say.

Staff MattP Posted December 23, 2014 Staff Share Posted December 23, 2014 Well, I see a city in the background and a green space towards the foreground - but I'm not sure what I see at the bottom yet?!? It's a really nice first piece and definitely gets you thinking and feeling :) Nice use of textures to enhance things too! jakezhang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRScott Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 As Matt says, I can see the city in the first one. I think the second must be about music? Very nice. jakezhang 1 Quote Gregg OS X Version 10.14.6 iMac 27" 3.2 GHz i5- 32 GB Huion Kamvas Pro 20 iPad Pro 12.9" IOS 13 AD = OS IOS, AP = OS IOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
