I see that you said this didn't turn out the way you wanted it to. I think I slightly would agree with that statement. The picture as a whole has a very dark look to it and I wouldn't mind seeing it brightened up a bit. You did use lighter colors, but there wasn't a very good balance.

The vertical black that you used for the picture gave it a nice wavy feel. It almost looks like this is a curtain on a stage or some sort of material in which can get bumpy if pushed together.

The white shape used in the middle did a decent job at not making the picture darker than it already was and I think you did a really good job with your ETH3R word this time. The way the colors blended into the white letters was really cool and even gave it a smoke like effect.

I think one last thing you could have done to make this picture better is to blend the colors a bit more. On top the green and the yellow and even the light blue and green blend very nicely and naturally. The other colors don't look so great right next to each other though and it looks like you had a hard time blending them together.

Thanks for the review as always! Plz recommend for scouting, I've waited long enough

Anways yeah the picture is dark on the outside edges but brighter towards the center of the picture. Tried to make the ETH3R not stick out as much as it usually does...as for the color blending that was just a gradient effect...nothing I can really do to make it blend.

But much grateful for the critisim, and good reveiw!

Nice

Doesn't look as interesting as your other signature pics, but it still looks good. Again the colours are pretty nice and I also like the effects you used here. It looks a bit like an equalizer on winamp (or a similar program), heh.

The swung line breaks the "equalizer look" up a bit, but that's a good thing as it adds a special note to the picture. Without that line the picture would look very bland.

Yes, and I totally agree; but as I said in the comment it was suppose to be someting else but...........I missed up big time and deleted the main illustration out of this picture and kept the background. So that's why I added the line thing in the middle to add something to the background

Thanks for the review!

Again...

Wow man, you made a 3rd one??!!

The drawing effects are simply awesome, the rainbow colors are great, now I understand why it's called ''Raintacular''!!
As I said above, the effects are really nice, and that line in the middle just gave a kind of special touch to the art, and i really liked that, it gave life to the art, w/ out it, it'd just look like a boring coloured art...

The sign is really cool, I don't know if you make it in purpose, but the ''ETH3R'' is a bit weird, but it isn't a horrible mistake...

I liked the art, but I still think that the other 2 are better than this, you made a nice job here!! Keep it up!!

Thanks for the review, and "good" comments!

Glad you understood the name of illustration and how it tied to illustration itself.
Tried to give all of my illustrations meaningful names!

Yeah the wavy line was used to give the illustration more energy, and a overall finish look.

Quite evocative

I'm guessing that the simple lay of this piece does indicate far more than you were planning for it to originally, with the spectrum at the back and this sharp wire snaking its way across the shot. I like the way that this gets into sharp focus and you've put this in, as I see symbolism of the speed of information transfer through places like the internet, for example.

As I've said in previous pieces of yours, you need to find a more uniform and indicative signature for yourself, so that you can be easily recognised, but not take up a large proportion of the detail that comes with the piece. This is one of your best pieces that I've seen so far and I want you to take what you've done here and improve upon it.

Thanks for the review!

The signature talk again...well I just can't help myself! I take a lot of pride in my sig name ETH3R...with a cool name like that, who can blame me?!!

Glad you interpretted this in a different ways then the other reviewers!

Could be larger

This was notbad and i really enjoyed the reds and purples but it seemed too small and the lettering was ok but seemed blurred at times, unless you did that on purpose well if anything can be improved on this it would be the "SIZE" of the whole art piece

Make the art piece much larger and add something more then just the text, well good luck on other art stuff

Flash-Gamers responds:

Thanks for the review!

Oh, I smudge my sig on purpose like I've done before in my other pieces.

Will see what I can do; Note to self MORE DETAILS!

But it's hard to do that, cuz sometimes it'll turn pic into a VERY BUSY illustration which would look bad to some, and confuse ppl on the concept of the illustration.
