Tentacle Backgrounds

[flypie743]

I worked this afternoon on these. As you can see one has text in the lower right hand corner and one doesn't. I couldn't decide which one looked better. Comments are welcome.

EDIT: Did these in Photoshop.

EDIT 2: Final, smoothed out, copies:

A more little antialaising?


Other than that, It looks nice.

Good way to make it monochromatic, yet still contrast well.

A more little antialaising?

Yeah, the edges on the tentacles are kind of rough.

Here it is with the edges a bit more smoothed out:

EDIT: See first post.

Wow, that looks 10x better than the first pic.

Nice.

[flypie743]

Updated.

Wow. I didnt mean THAT much softening. You dont want to lose the definition of the edges.

(Of course, I dont know where you are wanting to go with the picture.)

[flypie743]

I like it better softened. I might experiment and do something with the edges in between the two.

I am not really planning to do anything with the picture =/

[Porgy]

its a cool start, now try working them into a piece.

Any way you can take out the lense flare? =/
