First smudge in my entire life...


It was just an experiment. It didn't turn out bad, but I think it's not good either. Any feedback on smudge techniques is welcomed



I didn't bother too much with the text or anything else, I tried focusing on the smudge and making it look good.

CnC is very welcomed, as well as some smudge tuts for me to learn from

Nice technique for a first try. The colours cyan,blue & purple don't blend well together. It would look alot better with different smudge colours. You also need to work on your lighting with soft brushes. A sig should have a lighting source to give it extra depth.
