Interesting image. I think the main thing about this image is that it comes across too 'hard'. You have very deep blues, reds and to some degree the green with a very prominate black. The guy in the middle looks like he could have such potential and the general feel of the image is cool. Maybe try 'replacing' the colours already in the image (ie blue goes to green, red to blue etc).
Also try to fix the way that red swirl looks on the right hand side of the piccy. At the moment it stands out because it is too bright and I think it detracts from the other swirls that you have going on in the image that are really cool.

See ya on da flip side

hey, post the origional so we can see...what...you changed! yeah. I've been seeing a lot of these lately, but in all the ones i like, there's a certain 'unclutteredness' about them. The amature ones start out filled to this brim with effects, and then as time goes one they get classier with easier to look at stuff. Keep at it and learn from every one of them. |

With those coulours it looks like taken from a very bad film of the 60's... or from Andy Warhol (uargh!)
The idea's very good though

yeah, see now from here you have a good color scheme to work from. Stay away from the harsh blues and reds and greens. If I were you (which I'm not) I would use colors from the photo, plus maybe a grey blue. |

Another thing you can do is like, commit suicide. That way, you're sure to never make any errors ever again!  |

honestly, there's something about the colors that bother me... to much positive "contrast" in ps... you might want to give it more depth, instead of a stamp affect... I dunno, maybe I'm wrong... but the concept is great, and you should keep at it! you always manage to make things work...

Now now Snake, just because he started 67 threads with images created with filters upon filters upon filters doesn't make him a bad person... |
