So I was watching a tutorial and it used c4d's or whatever they're called so I decided to try some what do you guys think? I only used one in this picture but the one I saw had like 5 different ones. Have any of you used c4d's before?
Lol does anyone read these forum posts anymore? XD

Yes, I do read them :3

I like the way you used the c4d. Really fits to the flow and colors are nice. The only thing that bugs me are the low quality borders of the render and the text style is not that fitting, but besides that I really like this one :D

I also used c4d's in a good amount of signatures of mine ^^

Idk we are super similar so I would guess Sharo! (That's mine XD)
My legitimate guess would be Chino though since you go for the cutest?

@BigJk where do you find good c4d renders? I keep finding the same ones when I do a google search and I didn't really know what to do with the text in that one... >.<
Also I didn't want to go through and fix the render but I really like the render design so I just left it. I guess I could go back and blur it out but that's too much work for lazy ol' me.

Just tried doing an underwater scene with my good friend Yin here the only thing I actually used besides photoshop in this one was the render and the bubbles.

Unreal. You are absolutely correct. Chino is very cute I'll agree with that but Sharo is my favorite.

Your underwater picture looks really cool. It would look even better if the edges of the render were uhhh watery. Thumbs up!

I don't know. The edges look kind of odd. Could just be that the render isn't very clean like you said.

In the water one? I was talking about the purple one. In the water one I used a glass and ripple filter to make it look like she was in the water so the edges sort of distorted to. When you look at someone in the water its sort of rippled right?

Oh. I'm on my phone so I can't see it as good but the purple guy's scarf looks kinda out of place. And... the effect you used on the water one made it look like the lady is missing chunks of her flesh. Her legs and bits of her dress. It looked like a render that had bits and pieces leftover lol.

ok so I took that filter out it should look normal now

As for the guy in purple I'm just really lazy and don't want to mask a blur so I'll just leave it like that for the time being until I feel like fixing it XD

@silverwhirlwind I hooked up my old old external HDD that is barely working anymore for you and searched through my old c4d folders. I packed together 1,292 Images containing normal c4ds, fractales, nebulas and bubbles and uploaded it for you :3

I hope at least some of the images will be helpful to you and everybody else is also free to just download the stuff ^-^

@HecticLeo glad that I could help :3 I hope at least some of the images can be of good use ^^

I can't say much to your image. Colors and Atmosphere match. The only thing that bugs me a bit is that the render looks sharp but the bg is still so smooth :/ Maybe sharpen it in whole?

@BigJk So what's bugging you is the render and background doesn't match eh? Okay. This should be better. I dunno what to do about making the bg sharper.

@HecticLeo Yeah. The Blurred one is totally better!! Good job! xDD I just mean that the difference of sharpness between the render and the background bugs me a bit. It's not that the bg doesn't fit :3 It's not a huge problem and maybe it's just me who thinks that xD

EDIT: Forget to mention it. Maybe just try using the Sharpening Filter on just the bg? That's what I meant o:

So I haven't had much inspiration lately but I googled some renders and spent about 40 minutes finding ones I liked to see if I could make something cool. This is what I came up with, I think I might make a forum set out of it but I would like your guy's' opinion on this :D

EDIT: Already changed it :P I feel like I'm always changing my forum signature, do you guys consider that a bad thing?

I find the atmosphere and colors are really good. The consistent colors makes it really look like one picture :3 Good Job!

Now that I got the new Photoshop I really want to make a new profile design. Maybe in a few weeks I will have something ready xD Finding the starting point can sometimes take a lot of time and attempts v.v

Thanks! I honestly find the hardest part of a picture the background. Idk I was doing stuff till it loked good XD I think I used a some orange and yellow brushes as the base, then I added some mountain shading (I don't think you can really see them though.. .) but it didn't look good so I ended up using a space wallpaper overlay. I didn't know how important the background was O_O

I think the hardest part is to make everything look as one picture and the background is a very important element in that. Because without a fitting background that matches color, light eg. or otherwise integrates well into the render and everything else on it you won't get something that really looks like a whole... So yeah... The background is very important :D

@silverwhirlwind I would post something if I finally would find a starting point... currently I'm a bit disappointing by myself because I really wan't to make a new Profile design but I just can't find something that I'm satisfied with v.v The Problem is that I want to keep my style but still make something new and I kinda feel like everything I start with is to similar with my current one... but I keep trying =_=

@BigJk Well a lot of your graphics are on the black side, what if you maybe made like A dark profile but left it only in the background. Sort of like black background and accents but the rest has to be color? Because you're current profile looks similar to this club layout (I assume thats what you mean by a new profile design). Because you're profile consists of mainy Black and Green, maybe add more colors to it?

That new signature looks pretty cool! Also, I never said I wouldn't use it!!! I would post something but like I mentioned awhile back, I work 6 days a week for the rest of summer now and when I get home I just want to turn into a potato and play my crappy visual novels and watch anime. I am brainstorming a new profile design though but you already know about that. Slowly but surely. Much like BigJustkidding, I too also have troubles finding a starting point. I have many ideas and stuff but usually can't find the one thing I need to get my brain kicking. Everything I've made so far hasn't been just me pumping out stuff for quantity but because I actually had a clear image in my head and was able to find the appropriate resources.

Shamless plug, don't know if you guys use other forms of communication but if you have Discord feel free to add me on it with "Botan #0793". I'm pretty much always on that.

Ignore the text, will be getting rid of them. Do not like them. Planning on doing something else with the area. Also, I know the trumpet is a different color. I was just curious what the hue option would do.

So my friend has a youtube channel and the banner he made looked really shitty. I offered to make him something, and this was the result. Actually, this is version 2 of the result.



His channel isn't very big. EDIT: What you'll actually see if you view it would be a small horizontal strip in the middle. The image is just big enough incase you view his channel on a TV or whatever.

Wow I think it looks great! I'm wondering ig you did all those triangles on photoshop or if you found a pattern of then.
I also like the middle stuff it looks pretty cool.

The only things that bother me are the 4 white lines you have running through the triangles (but as you said it is hidden so I guess it doesn't really matter) I think they shouldn't be a pure white it clashed with the grunge, distressed look you have going for them. 2nd the name might look better without that black border around it, it sorta looks like it is a sticker placed in there.
All in all it looks really good, really like what you did with the triangles!

@HecticLeo Ah, the good old YouTube design / banner days. Besides making Signatures making YouTube designs and banners was also something that brought me more into the graphic stuff ^^

I like your banner. While having this clean and very readable text in the center it still has it's abstract and unique touch with the background. Good Work! :D


The only "designs" I made for the current YouTube layout where these and the person I made it for didn't like any of them... neither the simple logo I made nor the designs itself v.v

@HecticLeo @silverwhirlwind Thank you both Q_Q I was a bit disappointed at that time because I put so much effort in all of them (but especially the last one) and none of them was good enough... That had hurt my Graphic Hearth XD

And to the last one. This was a bit more complex. I made the logo in Illustrator and so I could easily import it into Cinema4D (the 3D Program from wich all these C4Ds come). So I created a 3D version of the Logo. Then I created a 3D object that looked like black strings? That't the other black stuff behind the Logo and wich stings through it. I then exported it as PNG and put it into Photoshop where I done the rest of the work, added the color correction and other effects :D

Maybe I can find the raw version of the 3D stuff to show you... I will look into my old HDD for that xD

EDIT:

Found the raw 3D version:


And found even another design he didn't wanted and I forgot about:

@silverwhirlwind Thanks :3

Adobe Illustrator is used to create vector graphics and because of that it's the best choice if you want to make professional logos, because vector graphics are scaleable to every size while keeping full quality. So that's nice if for example you want to print it on something because that's requires higher dpi / size.

and Cinema 4D is yet another expansive 3D program that is widely used by YouTubers to create Intros or as you know most of the C4D's you use are generated with that Program :D That's why it's called C(inema)4D's xD

I think it looks good but It is a bit dark. Idk I keep my computer brightness low but even as I turn it up it's hard to make anything but the eyes and the bright light out. It looks nice though, but maybe more highlights closer to the border, or lighting up the face a bit more would make it "pop" a bit more.
