i retraced the shadows exactly off the original pics, that's the amount of blur and opacity that was originally on them. thats why i left it like that.

the pictures look too str8 out a camera........need more editing/blending so it looks like a cover instead of cut & paste picture

the "Mayor No Worries" portion of the text is setup wrong...... you have it clashing on the left with white, then on a dark background on the right w/ the tree..... if you were familiar with design you would have taken that tree on the right out, added sky and made the text work to the background so that the main text is accented properly, the left text boxes stick out more than whats important and fucks the focal point up also you have light whiting out the guys face in the daytime.... sparkles/light work best on dark or nighttime covers.

There are some things that I would have done differently, but with that said...

You're a fool qwasian. I know you love the over edited/colored look but I'd rather have the image of the dude as is and not your way. Also I'm pretty sure C-4 is familiar with design, you're one of the last people who should be sayin' something like that. A lot of your compositions are straight up fuckin weird.

the pictures look to straight out the camera and need more editing?? lol u serious? there's a shit load of editing on them. color correction, sharpening, effects, cleaning, etc. the key to photo manipulation is to be subtle about it, the easiest way to spot someone who don't know what the fuck they're doing is when they have pictures that are WAAAAAAAAAY over done with effects they don't know how to use.

the text is setup wrong according to who? YOU??? lol. the white is just there as a backdrop to provide something extra. but the focal point on the text is the green.

the focal point of the cover is fucked up?? really? the focal point is the artist, and he stands out more than anything on there.

light on his face IN THE DAY TIME???? hmm........ ever heard of SUNLIGHT????


try again genius

your composition just isn't blending properly, there is no point in getting mad at me about it. i'm not trying to argue with you, I offered my honest opinion on the cover. you can take it or leave it.

yes I've heard of sunlight, but anyone who knows anything about graphics would know that it's not going to be one big ass beam of light directly on someone like that, your lighting effects are crazy wrong......are you saying sun is shinning off his right shoulder? whats reflecting it? his shoulder? light doesn't react that way homey. you have light on the top left of the girls head and then light on the right side of the guy. the sun is coming from 2 different directions in ya composition, the light should be on her back & right shoulder and not be so bright, you don't have bright ass light like that in the daytime and if you did it would wash out the whole cover w/ light not just one beam like a laser directly to the person, it's obvious that your trying to copy off madepro, photodoctors etc.. I bet you can't show me a single one of they covers that is done incorrectly like this... your like a smart dumb ass homey, just because your on the westcoast, and on a westcoast board, and people show you luv, don't make you correct. most of your designs are based on use of vectored text setups you clearly don't have alot of graphic training/knowledge.

i aint mad at u one bit.... it aint worth it. im actually laughing when i read your feedback.

u keep talking about my misuse of light and direction. i see random ass placed light on your covers all the time, so what? if the sun is shining on his face, why would it need to be reflecting off of something? it's not a direct beam of light. his shirt is lit up hella bright white, the sunlight is shining on him, not just his face as you keep saying.

u got the nerve to say i'm trying to copy MadePro and Photo Doctor? are u serious? I have great respect for both Shemp and Evan at Photo Doctor, they do great work, but I do not try to copy them nor do I want to. I happen to work in the same region as them and with alot of the same clients as them. But our work is not copied off each other. I have my own style and my own lane. And I can't stand MadePro. They are the biggest biters on earth. They bit shemp's nuts so hard it's ridiculous, they attempted to steal his whole style and forced him to change his game up and made him better and they still cant fuck with him. I don't like their work at all, why in the fuck would I want to emulate them?

people side with me cuz I'm from the West Coast on a West Coast board?? stop it. clown. people might agree with me because a lot of the time what comes out of your mouth makes you look like a fucking retard.

my designs are based on vectored text setups?? what the fuck are you talking about?? My text is different on Every piece of work I do. On the other hand, you use THE EXACT SAME STYLE of text on EVERY piece of work you do. Do you realize how fucking played out and ametuerish that corny chrome / stroked text you do is?? On EVERY cover? horrible.

I agree with quasion on the lensflares they are distracting (in my opinion!).
Also (in my opinion!) too random, dudes shoulder, the plastic bag (??) and the shovel, where there should be dirt all over because they just dug that hole so there couldn't be any light reflected(?).

And I agree with Nevasoba, the people and the house look too much out of proportion. When the dude will stand up, he will tower above the house. I don't know if this is what you were going for but too me it looks weird..

And when I look at the way the girl is 'holding' the shovel, I probably would have turned the shovel around and let it stick out of the pile of dirt.
I would also try to do something with the sky.

Don't mean all the above in the wrong way, they are just my opinions.

see the problem with this is, you don't even know that you were wrong, my composition is correct. my cover is a night cover and the light would be an example of a spotlight behind him...... natural light can work that way, but on a daytime cover one beam of light is not going to hit someones shoulder. there is no source of reflection. you are also trying to create a realistic scene with your cover and my peice you posted was a promo flyer, big difference, that scene is not meant to be a real life taken pic/scene. there is a difference in doing a promo and doing a realistic situation where everything is supposed to blend, 2 different concepts, your showing your lack of art knowledge by even trying to explain that. lol @ your response to art criticizm is to try to break down a peice that i've done.... weak minded. what you fail to realize is that I never said my peices were perfect. I gave criticizm on yours and I could criticize my own the same way. it's not a battle.
