Siggies & Avies & Tags? No way!

[Amaruuk]

As the title states, this is a gallery in which you will not find any signature banners, tags, avatars, or any other typical forum-related graphics that dominate this subforum.

For now, I have only some photography and a few vectors. I typically do vectoring for college work and actual design more so than just for it's own sake (mainly because it's time consuming and because Illustrator acts buggy on my laptop at times), but I do have skill and knowledge with Illustrator, and intend to use it for a living.

As far as photography, I actually don't claim to be any good at it at all, but I do enjoy photographing nature every now and then, especially since I live in such a lovely place with plenty of nearby nature.



So without further ado or text walls, here are my works:

~Vectors~


​

^ This is a sort of emblem/seal thing I designed for myself, and pen-tool'd it the other day. I added a cropped-off, zoomed-in section so you can see the details.

^ This is a logo I designed for a fanfic idea thing I had but never bothered going through with. It's about half a year old now.

^ This is just some pen tool doodle I did on break in class over a year ago. It's not supposed to be anything special.

I'll just chuck all of my photos into a spoiler tag. A couple of them might look familiar to those who have browsed my deviantART gallery.

Not gonna say much on your vector work, but the photographs are pretty nice to look at.
The shots of the river and trees in various lighting are very attractive!

I must say that your photography is the attractive part of your gallery. They're really lovely.

Ugh, you put more details into that Dragon. :P

 

[Amaruuk]

Since when did details warrant an 'ugh'?

And not to mini-mod, but if all y'all have to say is "oh, that's nice" you might as well not post at all. :/

Nick was totally right, PC is no place for vectors.

Very nice. The detail, especially around the face, is spot on.

The one on the left is a little odd looking. But it's nice either way. Absol?

I'm not a big fan of how the green goes from grassy green to army green. It's like too big of a change. Also, no one's eye lashes are that long, even with mascara.

Beautiful. <3 Absolutely beautiful.

This would probably look better if you had moved off to the left just a bit.

This one's nothing special. And the railing doesn't make it much better.

See above. Just nix the railing part.

See above.

Now this one I like.You captured the sky beautifully.

I really like the setting sun. You did a beautiful job getting it just right.

That river is gorgeous. The angle you took this shot at was great as well.​

You know the drill. =P​

Oui. I never said that the extra details were bad. I just assumed ealier that you were finished with that Dragon.

Hmm? What else to say, eh? Well, those vectors would probably belonged best in the Art Gallery section than here. You could probably make this gallery based on only photography. You don't need to do this. I'm just throwing it out.

@SL: Thanks much for the C&C! :3

Yes, they are two silhouetted Absol. They were to be the villains in the story.

The eye was, as I said, a quickie doodle on break in a class. Really the only reason I posted it at all was because I haven't too many examples of vector that aren't school/design work.

Also, I just snap photos mostly for the heck of it and don't really try too hard, but I'll take your tips into consideration. The railing in that one pic is that of a dock stretched out over the river thing behind my home (a lovely romantic place, if only I had someone to share it with D:), so I suppose next time I take a picture there I should include more of it or crop it out.


@Borey Well, last I checked, "ugh" meant something was bad. :/

And actually I didn't add any details at all. That sketch in my other thread is just a small thumbnail image, so you probably couldn't see them all. :3

I'm loving this logo, I like how the shadow effect works in this one.
The photos look good too.
