Description This is basically the same as my other entry, except I favored the less cartoonish look.
First one: [link]

Okay, the rules said "anything goes" when it comes to being creative with the template. This is something that I've always wanted to try.

When thinking about costume ideas, I thought ghost might be fun. Even more relevant to deviantART would be the ghost of a painter. OOoo....! Scary, huh? I was thinking about the typical spooky noises a ghost would make, along with reaching out with the hands so I thought, "that would look so cool in 3-D... So there you go.

Disclaimer: The 3-D effect is for the cool factor and how it enhances the image. If you are not able to get the 3-D image, DO NOT FORCE IT. If your eyes start to hurt or you get a headache, STOP TRYING TO SEE THE 3-D IMAGE. I am not responsible for any headaches, eye aches/injuries, temporary or permanent. (Although I SERIOUSLY doubt any would be permanent, I have to cover my bases...)

In order to view in 3-D, you need to cross your eyes so that the two pictures merge. It will look like you have three images, the two originals on their respective sides, and in the middle will be the 3-D image. If you have trouble getting the 3-D effect, try holding a pen close to your face and focus on it with your eyes. Then slowly move the pen back towards the computer screen, while keeping it in focus.

Mind you guys, not everyone can do this, so if it doesn't work for you, for your viewing pleasure, simply choose one side of the image to look at.

I think the best quality in this is the striking contrast. You've definitely captured that. Good technique.

Thank you. I think my design color class helped with that this semester.

Yep, I prefer the less cartoony look also although they are both great.

Love the little details and gore factor.

I wondered f you had tried making the main image (fella) more transparent. I know you have the kind of ghostly mist swirling around him but maybe if he had a certain transparency about him then it would help to convey that he is a ghost, although I guess most people will realise anyway.

Just a suggestion and may be worth a try.

Anyway, as I said before, this is great and has that extra creativity factor (which apparently the judges are looking for) which propells this to another level.

Wish you all the best with this contest, you deserve to do well.

You know what? You're totally right about making Fella more transparent! xD I was so busy concentrating on getting the smoke/mist 3D to work properly that I forgot to set his layer transparency!

Thanks so much for mentioning it! And thank you, as always, for taking the time to view and comment!

No problem. Sorry, it probably seems like I've always got a suggestion but I wouldn't be true to myself if I didn't give some form of critique.

I always welcome suggestions! I just don't always take them. Feel free to keep them coming on my future works. In this case, it was a big help.

so does that mean that you are gonna make him a little transparent? COOOOOOLZ

Kuroikii In reply to xlWolfReignlx [2009-10-21 03:35:43 +0000 UTC]

I did make him a little bit more transparent... The only problem is if I make him too transparent, he doesn't show up as well as I would like. I might have to play around with the transparency some more.

It's just improving on my previous design. I thought this felt more ghost-like. And I'm glad you enjoy them! :3

Looking at it while at the office, I'd better get back to work or my co-workers will spot me sitting a distance away from my cubicle with my eyes crossed.

Just doing my duty as I feel people have a right to know. If they know then maybe they won't stare so much.
