Title: Some Wallpaper Design
Post by: Kiwi on June 02, 2010, 01:15:30 am

Hi everyone.  I've recently been working on some wallpaper, and I've created some simple landscapes.  I'd like some opinions on how they look, so could you please rate it between 1 and 10 for "realism", "quality/niceness", and "professionalism".  I know it sucks, but I wanted to give it a try :):

Thanks,

I'd probably give it a 7 or so. But you'll be wanting some different resolutions, no?

I suppose, right now it just looks very fake to me.  I'd like to improve it some first, for example the grass looks a lot like a blanket, but yes.  I do hope to create some more resolutions in the future.  Thanks for the feedback :)

What's up with all of the noise in the image? It may obfuscate imperfections, but it's difficult to rate with such degradation in the quality.

From what I can see, the water looks to be a little bit flat; ripples and waves would make it look better. (Also, does the reflection match the sky?)
As for the grass, you may try some alpha to coverage and make it stand up rather than having the "blanket" grass referenced above.
The sky gets a little weird towards the spot where the sun is coming from. I'm not sure if it's perspective or quality that causes it, but it's just weird.

Keep it up!

It looks a bit dull but still 7/10  :) for the landscape
