>PS a bit limiting for painting
niggawhat?

>>312202
Stock PS is, Corel is much stronger texturally without having to install multiple plug-ins. I've used PS for years and only tried Corel for a couple weeks on another computer and found it a much more comfortable drawing/paitning experience.

Krita's free and works quite well, OP. I'd say give that a whirl first.

Have just the subject on its own layer.

Right click the image of the layer in the layers tab and click "select pixels".

Fill in the selection on its own layer with whatever color you want and put that layer behind the subject layer.

Got to Select>deselect.

add gaussian blur the layer with the color on it.

Voila.

Or, ya know, just add an outer glow layer effect.

This

a mosaic
Generally an easy way to do it is to get the photo that you want the big picture to look like, set it in the foreground and turn the opacity down to about 50%
then pile the photos you would like to make up the larger photo together as if they were a puzzle.

Thank you very much!

hey no problem bro! good luck with everything

>>313887
yes, infact i can relate, i went to school for gd and, i agree that a school cannot prepare you completely for today's job market and competition, the only thing you can do is work on your skills, im working in 3d modeling too but i do arch viz in unreal so i had to learn that shit like i was new in the field getting out of school, so what i did is apply my graphic design knowledge to put in special formats and graphics in my visualizations, try and branch out a little on something that interest you and you know you can put time into that wont feel like a burden.

i want to get into games or vr so imagine my stress when all i knew was graphic design stuff.

also is fusion 360 better then solidworks?

>>313889
>fusion 360
im pretty sure its the same as solidworks, i never used it but someone at my company had to for a while. He said it was just a slightly more confuxing solidworks. but we both had only known SW so who knows.

Same on the learning new programs.. i feel like im goingto have to learn Maya or Rhino and and then at least another rendering program. all while getting my sketching skills to a level where they are actually impressive. seems so daunting, i wish i knew how much more i needed to get while still in school. and i wish i didnt waste the last 3 years with jobs that were not improving these skills too.

>>313890
maybe i can help, for modeling in 3d i like 3ds max but if you want a complete package that has animation, rendering uvs and all that sweet stuff get maya, its industry standard (gaming and movies).

for rendering i all depends whats your final product, if your going for games go for unreal its very very good, but for products that need to be pristine use arnold which comes preinstalled in maya and its not as difficult to learn as vray.

What software in adobe's suite is best to reproduce this effect.

>>313634
For genuine critique, I'd say:

The P should have a curved line rather than a bunch of segments, although I could see that being a limitation of whatever software you were using. The Z is weirdly designed, with one corner pointy and the other flat and especially with the thin middle bit. I also would've made the bottom of the A's flat rather than the simple ends of the lines as you did. The braille, while unnecessary, adds some visual interest. Don't like the fact that the text on the blueprint is backwards.

I think I didn't clearly state the question.

I know that you make the materials on illustrator/materials. Then you make animations on After Effects and the likes. But then what program do you use to make an ui prototype that functions with proper animations? The only way I know for now is Flash.

What a qt

You've done the graphic equivalent of putting ketchup on fries. Or selecting text in a Word document and clicking the Italics button.

How much crit are you honestly expecting?

from what i can tell:

literary steal from japs

cyberpunk sci-fi mechas animey and commercial design

ghost in the shell and romanticizing this kind of corporate dystopian thing
http://ruinergame.com

you can also look into how japs designed 90s electronics, guns and such goods

lots of 30 degree angles, lots of geometric detail in linear perspective and slight rounded corners and meaningless detail all over the place

study elements of type design, look into russian constructivism, but make it look all futuristic

make an origami and vector that shit, add some really small font and you got it

bitmap pattern pixel dithering

I know what it is. I asked:

>How do I achieve this dither effect?

Nobody can read properly or?
