Nick's Designer Application

Name:Nicholas (Just call me Nick)

IGN: Yume

Age: 14

Experience: Well..I started out making really crappy things with a random program I found called pixelmator. I've moved up from that and learned a lot. I've been doing for about...2 years?
Programs used: I usually use Photoshop CS3 but I can use GIMP and pixelmator to some extent

Examples:
Example #1
Example #2
Example #3

These are a few of my examples...the dates vary...if you want a few more I can post them but photobucket was being stupid...

More: Well...I usually specialize in Banners but I can make larger pieces too. I've done a few things here and there with maple images but I prefer to stick with anime renders strictly. I think I've got a fairly good source of resources, and I've acquired various skills such as how to render pictures. The only thing I really don't like about my work is the font, as I find that often they're badly placed or don't blend well. Feedback appreciated.

Reason: I was bored, decided I'd try and do my part for TheClashMS and I found out quite recently that our graphics team is understaffed...I also decided to do it partially to recieve some critique...none of my friends do much GFX so they all think it's great and fantastic...not much great feedback.

Thanks for reading, give me a shout!

your examples are good (:

Yea but how the eff am i suppose to know those are yours

Well, for the proof, if you go into that account, you'll see two screenies from TheClash that I posted in the forum but as per requested, a Clash Banner.

Banner

I guess it's fine, I was kinda rushed to do it as it was rather boring and I would've rather been playing TheClashMS

Edit: Forgot to mention, I'm willing to send/upload any .psd if you're curious...LEARNING RIGHTS ONLY...it's another viable form of proof.

Actually, I don't have a style...or not a noticable one at least...I play with many different styles and themes...

i...dont....see the theme...all i see is a screenshot and a pic, the pic is erased to half and....a C4D set to screen or light

Ehhh...I did a bit more than that but I assume it's not that noticible, I like making minor touchups like the lightbeams from the window arent actually from maple...I added those, I did a bit of burn and dodge on the characters relative to the lightsource and the c4d is on a texture and it's just lowered opacity not screen. Also...Scanlines :]

Also, I didn't really have a theme on this banner as I usually pick images with uniform or matching colors, this is kinds...not uniform so I didn't really have a set theme.
