Gem

Made for a friend in my clan.

I got annoyed with this one, I know I could've made it better some how but I just couldn't think of it, or of what to do, I started out having an idea of giving it a cold feel but then i ran out of ideas on what to do so I started playing with filters and brushes and gradients and exposures a lot, then I pretty much gave up on trying to make it look better :/ 4th sig, CC?

oh btw I used no tuts on this one, and like i said, rarely used c4ds.

It looks pretty good, I like it more than the one I made personally.

They aren't quite the same base picture. The guy in Alex's is a little bigger than in the Gem one.

Yeah, they are the same picture, Al3x' picture is just a little bigger, that's all. Size doesn't change what the picture is of. :wink:

I like the colour scheme you used, although it does look a little strange on a camo suit, i would have expected greys/greens/browns, but tbh, i think it looks really cool the way you did it.

He's right, the original render is quite large, hitting file>place adjusts the render to your image size

His image is smaller so his render will be smaller. He may have manually put it in though, I don't know if he used place.

Ya I usually place it then control+T it a bit. Place usually does the job though.
