TheSkeletonMan939 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 It'd probably be better if there were something in the background. Just a color, even. No one likes a white desktop. But I like the breaking Hau. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is I have no idea which color would look good with the black Hau and text. :/ - Quote :I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznas Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Here is an example I created to show you how to spice the image up a little without lots of work: All I did was invert the colors so that the background was black rather than white. Then I took the mask and the bottom text and turned them red, considering Tahu is red himself (I also edited the mask a little so that the edges weren't so hard). After that, I added in the original Bionicle Logo, which, in my opinion, looks much better than typing it out in white/black text. When it comes to my criticism of the artwork, there is really not that much to critique. Most of the criticism I have is the plainness of it, and TheSkeletonMan and I have already covered that. One other thing would be, again, try to work on the hard edges a bit. The easiest way to deal with it is to add a very slight Gaussian Blur, or some other kind of blur, which will smooth out the edges a bit without losing very much quality of the actual image. Besides that, it's actually a very nice wallpaper. Keep up the great work you're already doing! -Rez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be posting it soon. - Edited June 23, 2013 by BioCry Quote :I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taka Nuvia Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I actually like the black-and-white version a lot; it's simple, yet very effective. Particularly the shattering part of the mask. It gets the point across without being overly dramatic. Of course, whether the all-white is really suitable as a desktop wallpaper, that's not sure. As an artwork that says "Remember", it absolutely works, though. Quote My art collection topic - updated! (21/09/2021) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Cup of Fail Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 That is really amazing and the white background fit great with it Quote My Topics MOCs: Construct-a-Astronaut __________________________________________________ Find Me On Flickr Twitter Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
