Bei Bei's ai hao

[Bei Bei]

I just got photoshop not too long ago, made a couple of sigs, so I decided to show them off and hopefully get some good input so I can improve.




This was the first sig I made with photoshop

My black and white SOTW entry...

FFX SOTW entry that I forgot to enter, and just finished today

You really are improving a lot and quite quickly, I would say. The last tag confirms that. I simply love it! Very nice concept and the white bar adds uniqueness. The slanted text and line is also a nice touch in the end.

Your 2nd tag is also good, but somewhat a little too busy with effects going everywhere. You want to keep it somewhat aligned with the image and flow. It still looks pretty awesome though, so good job!

 

[Serah]

Wow, look at you go gorgeous girl! You work is almost ALMOST as beautiful as you are! You've done a great job here! Keep up the good work! I can't wait to see more.

 

[Kei]

Well they are pretty good and Yuna's tag is the best, I like it a lot it's perfect, however I don't like the black and white tag just because I think it's crowded (never mind me though, it's just me I'm sure other peoples may like it)

 

[Casanova]

Well, personally, I think the black and white one is the best. It features a great use of text and effects, and the size is good, it's very appealing to me.

Anyone would think that you've been using Photoshop for a while, your first tag is amazing for a first. Keep up the good work, you.

 

[Bei Bei]

Thanks guys!

Well, I worked really hard today and finished 2 more sigs. I decided to try something new and I'm not really sure what I think about them yet

FFX SOTW entry that I forgot to enter, and just finished today

Ooooh! You REALLY should have entered, that one's just lush!

I love your work Bei ^^ Especially your text, and for someone who's not had photoshop long, you're doing great! I can't wait to see how you progress ;D

 

[Bei Bei]

I've been working on a lot of new sigs lately, and decided to post them up. I've been experimenting a lot with different styles and techniques, trying to get a good balance and understanding of things.


This was my SOTW entry for Blue. It was my first sig without smudging so I'm very proud of it.

This is my first sig I did for myself. I have no idea what I did with this one, but I like it a lot. This one I really just tooled around, I had no idea what I was doing, but it turned out good.

This was my first sig request, and I think is one of my favorite and best sigs yet!

My most recent sig. I don't know what went wrong with this one. I think I just tired too hard and I sort of lost it. Tried something new again, and for the first time I FAILED!!!!! It turned out nothing like it was supposed to.

 

[Mitsuki]

Very nice. My fave one is Coco Lee! Great designs and seems somewhat professional-like. Text is also unique. As for your recent sig...well we already talked about that. ^^ It's still good, despite what you think.

 

[Bei Bei]

Thanks so much Suki! That one is my favorite one still.

It's been a while since I posted something. I haven't worked on much lately except sig of the week, so I decided to just do something random too.

My SOTW entry for Freestyle

Ni Chang from Forbidden Kingdom

 

[Mitsuki]

Your Assassin Creed is simply fab! It's clear and neat-looking, despite the effects in the BG, which is also very effective. I love the color scheme here and he really stood out. Good job!

And I love Ni Chang! That sig is awesome! Nice colors and blending.

 

[Kei]

Your Assassin Creed sig is really good, you did a perfect job with it, but it's just that the text isn't that good, it just need a little work that's all.

 

[Bei Bei]

*UPDATE!*

Well, I don't have my computer anymore, so I don't have photoshop. I won't be able to do any GFX for a long while until I get a new computer. So I'm posting the rest of my work here. Enjoy!

 

[Somnus Noctis]

I like the Vincent Valentine one, though the text is somewhat plain it's still good

 

[Bei Bei]

*REVIVES OLD THREAD FROM THE DEAD*

I figured since I've been fooling around with photoshop again, I might as well keep this thread alive and going. Haven't played around too much with it, but here are some of the stuff I've done since I left. I'm a little rusty and using a newer photoshop that I'm not used to so here goes

 

[Exoskeleton]

Well you're not rusty at all! O.O I think the last two are the best, especially the Coco one which is my favorit. I love your background and your usage of colors . You're very talented Bei Bei!

 

[Daenerys]

This piece is really pretty. I love the lighting and blending, and the colours are yummy. The text is really nice too. I like that there's a lot going on, but the focus of the piece is still the character. A wonderful tag ^^

I like this piece, the colours work so nicely with the stock image and I like the effects. Normally, I'm not a fan of text at the far side, but you've managed to pull it off nicely here. Well done

I like this piece, the lighting and colours in particular are nice. I'm not quite sure what's happening on the left hand side, but the right hand side is really nice. The text is well placed, but I can't read it at all (unless that's the point xD)

This piece is pretty, I'm liking the effects and colours a lot, and I think it flows really well, the purple bar is a really nice effect which helps the tag flow excellently ^^ It's great to see you photoshopping again Bei! I can't wait to see more of your works ^^

 

[Sexy Beast]

This one is surely unique, that's for sure. I like the concept you have going, and the way you did the text is sure intruging, but I think the stock itself is very low quality, and the brightness and contrast doesn't really support it, let alone help improve the quality. The effects itself are nice looking, yes, but they seem to be plain IMO. Perhaps the canvas should of been higher, and then the effects might've been slightly better for the eyes. With that said, I love the text :3.

Love the concept in this, and the simple look works here imo. But the text--the text is just too far away from the chick. I honestly think it should be more closer to her, and angled to go with the flow. The darkness works here, so I won't say much about that, and the effects suit the stock, so not much to comment on that, either. so pretty much the text is the only problem. Well, at least as much as I can see.

Liking the look of this one; lighting in particular is nice. The colors also work really well, but the dupe on the right side isn't really working for me. But perhaps if you lowered the opacity on it--it might work in this situation. Aside from the text being unreadable, I quite like this one.

Now this one is really nice. I personally love the effects on the far left(near upper-left corner). The clipping mask in the right lower corner is a nice touch, and the effects in upper-center is nice, but overall the tag as a whole is a bit plain. The text would be better if moved closer to the chick, but along the top of that white line-thing.

Overall, I say for not making much in photoshop in over a year, your doing good. I'm sure you'll get the hang of it :3
Nice to have ya back in the mix of things

 

[Warbsywoo]

All of your new stuff is so great. I kinda sensed a style change from your previous tag posts, and I have to say it looks just as interesting and vibrant as ever.

I love the Diao Chan tag the best out of the last four. That effect that you managed to get in the background is something I've been trying to do myself, to no avail. >.>

 

[BloodCurdlingWhisper]

simplicity is always a good theme for a sig/tag.
if you're going to use vibrate and bold colors, keep in mind that a highly detailed bg/text, or render can make a sig/tag look busy!
areas i think you need to focus on are colors/levels, and text.
also, when using a C4D, try not making it so blunt, by smudging and using layer settings.
either way, great jobs and good luck :3
