It's a step in the right direction man! Just work on blending up your stock. It sticks out like a sore thumb. The problem I think is the stock itself. It's too low quality, imo. As for the light source I would move it up off the stock OR I would blend the fractal to make it look as if light is shining down. Tell you what, next tag I make for SotW I'll make you a tutorial alongside the tag instead of making it afterwards. That way, I don't leave things out.
Some parts I didn't understand what you were saying but here's this, its not that good imo I'm not too happy with it Spoiler: tutorial
Spoiler: tutorial
? ...I think you used the same text, I just compared them and they are the same lol, accident? Anyways thankings
Spoiler: Tutorial, REVISED! yeah, I accidentally uploaded the wrong one. Better?
Spoiler: Tutorial, REVISED!
Yes sir. I will have it up in about five minutes or so.
Um if you could that would be great and appreciated. That way I don't have to decipher lol.
sorry. All my other text looked like crap. Want me to change it to ariel or something easy?
The text you used can be a little difficult to read at times
I'm gonna look thru it now and tonight and I'll ask questions if they arise. Thanks buddy. I'm sure I'll have some questions about technical things once I've gotten this under the belt.
Shoot. I made a mistake. In the tutorial you need to add a fractal in. Or a C4D (so some sort of 3D picture or something abstract) You need to set it to dodge so it becomes a light source. Do that before step 3 where I have you blend the background. I think I had forgotten to re-type that when my caps lock was all screwed up. sorry mang :/
