Ventor's first render

[Ventor]

Thanks Xylez, you inspired me!
I've cut out stuff before, with the eraser, lasso or wand. But never ever with the pentool. So I qualify this as my first render ever. I'm pretty happy about it, a little jealous of xylez, since his first try was better. But I blame the quality of the picture I used. xP

Now when I can render a little bit, I may not need to look for images with a completely white background to cut out with the wand. I might actually be able to do this as well! (even though it was a real pain in the *** xD)

Picture I rendered;


My render;


Please, I would really appreciate comments. Sure, I made this in like 20-30 minutes, but I'd still like people to tell me if it was a good job or not. Because otherwise I won't know what to improve. ^^

Thanks, xylez.

Thats VERY good.

Clean , and smooth.

Nice.

Can i use?

[Ventor]

Thanks, and of course you can use. But I recommend you not to,

I hadn't checked it with a black background before, now I did. I have to do some more rendering before I'm happy! ^_^

nice.....i like the fianl touch of the name that gives it something that only a great artist could have

[Ventor]

Thanks! ^_^
What part is so special about the name, by the way? =P

[Vegetaz100]

the contrast between the name color and the backgorund color gives a unique touch to the picture.

Very nice for your first render. My first render sucked, and they still suck haha
