Puppet Graphics {Showcase}

[Pinocchio]

Introduction:
For those who don't know me, my name is Massimo and I am a beginner Graphics Artist.
The sole purpose of this Showcase is for me to learn something and hopefully bring something new to the Graphics and Photography Section of PokeCommunity.

Please Note: If everything goes well I may open a Graphics Shop so stay in touch and maybe some day I will make a banner for you.

Graphics (in chronological order) :
#1. My first banner ever. Featuring a knight. I tried to make some kind of smudge banner but I find it sort of boring.

#2. My second banner ever. Featuring Tony Stark from the Hit Motion Picture;
"Iron Man". My first attempt as using C4D's in my banner.

#3. My third banner ever. Featuring an Anime Girl. Made using the same technique as the above banner but I feel I did a much better job.

#4. Featuring Davy Jones from the Hit Motion Picture; "Pirates of the Caribbean". I think this banner is a bit dark but never-the-less I did have fun making it.

#5. Featuring a vampire. Made for the SOTW "Vampires" Theme. Not much to say here except that I wouldn't want to cross her in a dark alley.

Well they are all the banners I have made but I will be updating this as often as I make banners.

Please Note: I am currently not accepting requests but hopefully sometime in the not so distant future when I am more experienced with graphics I might open a shop.

Thanks for viewing and rating,
Pinocchio.​

You need to work on your banners more, not just making a background and sticking some image and text on it. I suggest looking at other peoples banners. Or downloading some tutorials. My favourite would be 3 though =].

You have nice graphics, but you definatley need to work on blending a bit more.
The renders need to blend in at least a little. But the potential is there, so keep it up!

As CheesPeow said, my favourite would have to be No. 3.

Yes well as mentioned above, I have only made 5 banners ever.
I will try blending more on my next one.
Thanks for posting everyone!

YAYZ 4 PINNOCHIO! You have some good graphics for a begginer. Although, everyone is right, blending is vital. try smudging, psd's and sometimes brushes. however, luffly graphics~

Thank you Poke'd!
As I said in my previous post, next banner I try will have some kind of an attempt at blending.
Thanks for dropping by.

Awesome work for a beginner... you sure improve fast. =)

I agree with everyone, number 3 is your best :3
Can't wait to see more of your work.

Good luck!

Thanks to everyone who commented.
I have made another banner trying to smudge more so here it is;

#6. Featuring someone I don't know. As mentioned above, it is my first real attempt at blending via smudge. So be nice. =P

#7. Featuring Steelix. Tried a different method of blending and think it came out O.K.

Nice banners, but try downloading smudge brushes if you want to smudge your render up. Go to DeviantART and type in Smudge Brushes. Oh, and work on your text.
DID I MENTION AWESOME BANNERS FOR A NOVICE?
