I now hate photoshop
« on: April 13, 2007, 11:50:38 pm »
I was going to do this with the Smith Virus models, but I didn't get enough screenshots with enough varying angles.  Decided to go with the regular old Agent disguise instead.  



Feedback is appreciated.  Please be brutally honest.  :D

Not bad.  Other than what you've already pointed out, I like it.

I also like your avatar.  You should change the caption to say "THIS IS SPARTA!!" LOL

I like it a lot, great caption to it.  I kinda would love to see you in the middle of them all from above, like dead center

Manic... I envy the living hell, shit and f*ck out of you. Another masterpiece... friggin-a!

If I had your talent with this, (still trying :(.) I wouldn't hate PS at all!

New desktop ftw!

He hates it because it took a LOONGGG time.. I can guarantee you that... but it does look amazing.. at least it didn't turn out bad.. that is the worst.. spending a lot of time on something and then it still turning out bad.

Incredible Manic! The witty caption is the icing on the cake.

*Spits out soda* Holy crap! That's fricken nice, Manic!

Another cool thing to experiment on would be a simple clean street with Agents lining it on either side, looking toward the 'camera' where the 'camera' is resting on what would be your shoulder, with nothing but the corner of the glasses and the brim of your fedora in frame. That would be an awesome shot, too.

Aaaaaaanyway... *head explodes*

They are.  I had to do it that way just to make sure that each agent was sized correctly according to the perspective of the Debir Court screenshot.  

Pretty much everything in the image is its own layer.  The only part that didn't come from MxO is the sky.  That's from an actual photograph.

Manic needs to find himself a new boyfriend. Manic has way too much time on his hands!

Ok, in all seriousness. That is not something easy to do and it turned out great. Therefore it equals awesomeness.

Don't believe everything you think.

I thought you'd never ask.  Pick you up this Friday at 7.  I've booked us the Valentine Suite at the Grand America Hotel.

I won't ask you again. No means no. I will not be your lover. I'm not that way... I'm sure there are plenty of other young men you can find to please your needs.

awesome job. The only thing that bothered me was the 2 agents on the left both running to the right. I think having that same one so close to eachother stands out.

Updated with lots of rain, and added some lighting on the agents to give them more depth.  Removed the wording because I found it distracting.

Also made a larger version for desktop purposes: 1280 x 1024
