Designing the Comp
Stuck: changed the color palette but now i am stuck, lots of small perspective problems, and not sure what's going on in the bg...nor am i certain about the correct render process
still needs a few more rounds someday i'll get to it
Ideas: pontoons open to reveal....extra power surge, zip lines, grappling hooks, turbo ? anything?
notes:...more detail and color variation in fg to separate from bg, atmosphere affects color saturation hue intensity, get feedback from instructors, kitbash painting scraps, erase out areas unwanted, adjust layers attributes to match rest of img, paint over, masks, layers, lighting more interactive
more modern minimalist designs...detailing..materials? reflected light?
dont abuse the dodge...not too many highlights..becomes too noisy
custom brush:edit:define brushpreset
brushes:loadbrushes
brushes: save brushes
