Nice one Gerbs. Man.... You have such typography skills.... Even the simplast s...t.... looks tight!
is this ok?
(gerbick) I love what you did with the magnifing glass...nice volley! :thumbsup:
(vscorza) The hole pixel art is cool but what does it have to do with gerbicks dog? :cow:
who's next?
Anybody that wants to be next... just don't go twice in a row... but that's a common courtesy moreso than anything else.
vscorza, a bit filter heavy for my likes. But I see where you used the dumpter and paw. But you might want to go for a bit more image clarity, readability. But it's a cool stylized image... looks like some of the earlier Shepard Fairey stuffs.
:mrt: ill let somebody else step up to the plate but ill hit up theirs...and on a side note, gerbicks www.gorillafarm.net is the place to be!!! that web page is so well done! who designed it?
Way to step it up in the arena guys! I love that this thread is picking back up again. I like the last image Nepzap.
btw nepzap,I havent even started on my next volley for the surreal battle. last night was the only night ive had to do nothing all week and I ended up just drinking instead ;) sorry.
Which part? All graphics were done by me.Quote:

because my website is in dire need of work. all i have up is a cheesy graphic saying "under construction" with music in the background.
I'm hosted by a good friend of mine at http://www.featuredhost.com (he'll host you for cheap... tell sales that Gerbick sent you) - I did all of the graphics, but the flash part is actually a gallery that I got via http://www.imagevuex.com because my own gallery wasn't talking to the GD2 lib in PHP quite well. I've not yet gotten the hang of PHP coming from an ASP background.
But gorillafarm.net is actually far from finished. Been working on making it into part of the upcoming network I've yet to announce.
cool! thx for the info :)
thanks guys for the replies, I'll try to go softer on the filters next time
Wow, they've got quality stuff there...great site.Quote:

This was just a quickie for the fun of it :) Gotta love open battles. I could improve it but I'm going to bed. :zzz:

hehe. wheres the quote from? sounds familiar and im too lazy to google it?
Hey...
Never participated in a photoshop battle before...(You guys and gals can probably guess...)
Thought I'd have a go, (if I'm allowed!)...Let me know if it breaks any rules...

It's from Kung Fu Hustle. That and Shaolin Soccer might be 2 of the funniest Kung fu movies of all time....Quote:

I like the background on that image nepzap. Two comments though. First, the guy and the asian writing stand out from the image a little. Just a trace of a border on it them. Also, you cant really see the "F" in Flashkit. Just my two cents though :)
ps. I started my "surreal battle" image. Expect something within a few days.
What do you mean by that? I do agree the asian writing does kind of stand out. Is it permited in FK to update an image?Quote:

P.S. Yeah what's taking you so long? :(
See you later, man.
i think hee means that it kinda looks like lee was placed over the image as opposeed to being part of the image.
I have to say I agree. HUm...I didn't even notice that, but now I do. What is the policy in updating images Dri?
update it before the next one is posted... just replace it at the server... most people never know.
read: I do it all the time.

I like that it says Lash kit... It's more Kung fu that way :)
theres a nice tut on how to fix that a bit on battlefarm.com
i dont remember the steps at the moment, and im far to lazy to reproduce it.
its wicked simple too.

Bored at work and fighting with my gf a lot lately, guess this is what came of it. My first try with masks so I'd appreciate any input you guys could give me.
Real nice work watchman. Good job with the masks, I cant pick up any places that dont look good. Maybe going with a little lower opacity on the diagonal lines over top the image would be my only comment. Although the top right corner looks good as it is.Then again, what do I know?
watchman, awesome work dude. three places stick out to me... the nose on the larger image of the dude... I'd use a soft brush via burn to darken the fringe pixels a bit. Same for the upper back area on the guy on the lower part of the image as well... there's a bit of fringe pixels that are way lighter than the worked in prior image.
I'd also avoid contacting the colon ( : ) part with the girl's lower back... either create a space or overlap... it's at the edge, and that's distracting my eyes a little.
I agree with Dri... the diagonals on top of the lower two could have been either masked out or had their opacity lowered to draw focus down to them, then your text. But honestly?
Awesome image. Your masks are good, not accurate in a couple of places, but at least you worked it into your image quite well.
Thanks for your comments Dricciotti and Gerbick. I really appreciate that you guys don't just tell me areas that need to improve, but you also tell me how to go about improving them. Hopefully I'll get the hang of masks in my next few tries.
Here's a quickie:

Real cool image creativeinsomnia. I like the font choice too (the 'y' in nobody). What is that?
Thanks Dri, it was a 10 minute volley...i was bored at work. The font, i have no idea, it was carried over from EROR's volley. But thanks for giving me credit ;)
haha. i didnt even notice that. im an idiot.
