Making Rice Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 the black and white versions looks the best because of the colour correction, you should try layering an orange purple map to make it more seamless. I am impressed by you smudging tho 1
Dex Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Blending could use a little bit of work but regardless of that you did a pretty good job!

Deceiver Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 They look good for starting out. But this piece right here (On the bloody girl): Watch out for that.
Reflected Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Not bad for starter. You need to pick render with better movement and flow. You picked extremely hard ones to make a proper smudge. The renders also have poor colors, so the tags needs a lot of color adjustments, light source manipulation etc. And for last when you do smudge like that, use lighter and darker colors to create depth. Also when you smudge starting from the render to fit and blend it to the background, you use the same colors as the render had on that specific location you started smudging. HINTS: Follow the smudge tutorial you find from the tutorial section to get the basic knowledge how to use the tool and setting. Play around with them and test the outcomes. And when you use smudge tool, use ~90% hardness Keep it up!
