NSR - Mannequin

SuicideGrl · Post by **SuicideGrl** » Mon Dec 03, 2007 9:40 pm

got the idea for this suddenly while watching a commercial on TV... couldn't really find the perfect stock for it, but the one i found worked out pretty well. like my current sig, it's based on BrokenSaint's recent tut involving clipping masks (use search of you wanna).

the only thing i am really happy with is the text, but i am somewhat content w/ the rest of it.

c/c & */10 pls.

edit: stock available here.

looks great sui.

i'd give it 9/10 i really really like it.
i also like the fact that there is no real focal, though nothing is blurry and you
kindof know what you are looking at

I love it, if I could change one single thing it would be the effect blocking the mannequin's face above and slightly to the right of the small graphic kissing your text. I think it's face showing through would look better, thats all.

9/10.

Looks great! For some reason, I've never liked the darker Sigs. They've always reminded me of dark, brooding people in dark, brooding rooms. But this looks really nice. And especially from such a plain old stock!
I really like the blurry effect. Atleast to me, I get the impression that the more to the left you move, the more clear it gets. The lone, blurred mannequin to the far right gives kind of a mysterious effect that fits in with the rest of the Sig.
And as always, I love your font and the effects you have that go along with it.

One thing though: what's that object in the bottom right hand corner? It seems a tad out of place.

Every day or so. Too many cuties out there in the world that all are vying for a spot in my Sig. Best I just give each of them a day or two. :]

Now off to homework for mee.

wow, great responses to this one, and to be honest i wasn't that crazy abotu it when i finished it off.

anyway, i used a lot of clipping masks on this one. i started out w/ the stock, then added an effect c4d to it (those bubble-like things all around), and made a clipping mask out of it. i also made clipping masks out of some text and shapes (there's a pretty clearly-defined heart shape right to the right of the head of the most clear mannequin in the shot, for example).

i gaussian blurred the whole thing after making all the clipping masks and erased key parts (faces, highlights on c4d elements, etc.) that's really it, most of the effects you see are just clipping masks.

thanks for the comments guys... any other criticisms?

I love it SG! I don't think anything is particularly wrong with it.
The boobies @ bottom right corner FTW?
