Ren's Attempt on GFX

[Ren-]

Osu ~
Im start GFX'ing around May 2011 due Boredom
and my Program is GIMP 2.6
Anyway..
here's some my Touhou related tags ^^~










Feel free to cnc me and use my work as long you credits me

Some of these are pretty great and all, especially the Yuuka and two Reimu ones, but it is quite frustrating every time avatar/signature/etc makers go "You can use them as long as you credit me!" when they themselves use art from other people, without credit, and without even a link to the original artist's page. Same in the case where you "have to ask for permission" to use signatures, when the creator didn't receive or even ask for permission from the original artist; same with anything else along the lines where apparently using other artists' content gives you the right to demand some other people to give you credit for it. It all just seems very hypocritical to me.

Going to note that for most places, signature height is restricted to something along the lines of 150 pixels. I suppose it depends where you go, but people will have to crop these if they want to use them. Please continue, they're pretty good. You use lots of red though, maybe try some other colors as bases.

Would you happen to be Ren from Club Bleach?

I sort of wondered.
anyway, for someone who started in May 2011, you sure either have a fuck ton of really great gurus/tuts or wow, you are talented.

I used to do GFX, got bored because lol-not-real-art comments from a lot of people (aka DevArt) but let's not dwell on that, my favorite now is currently your:

Reimu flower, very nice, pleasant to look at, nice notebook effect.
Trendwhore Mokou is fantastic, this is quite pro, at the height of my creations I used to do stuff like this but only with real stocks, a bit flat overall, not the best I seen.
Sakuya and Alice brush cloud thing is quite good as well, depth seems to focus on one side, not too fond of that but flow is near well perfect. Lighting needs work on both.

your new updates are kinda meh, all are kinda flat, but Byakuren has an added touch of flair because the background is really nice, I would suggest not using that layering effect over her, but sparingly apply on the background to gain a 'float' effect for some of the back image.
Marisa has poor stock, and winter Remi is... just no.

nonetheless, great overall work 7/10 if you do the rating thing like most GFX hobsnob sites do.

Late:

Konachi actually looked kinda nice, but there is no focus, it is a bit sparse in effect.
again, nice notebook effects on both the latter ones, cute and simple, I guess it can only work with cutesy stocks.
