Redirect to original
Description
So, my first ever piece of abstract (finished). Cataclysm was kinda abstract except it deviated since i couldn't do anything, i sucked
so now here's a concrete piece.so yeah i manipulated the original render a lot, then brushed it up...
Hope you enjoy, if you have hints, tips, tutorials, please say
Will probably delete this at some point, since it's just experimentation and is crap
Stats..
Render property of i accept no credit for the base render. you can find it [link] there, so you can see what i've done with it.
1hour (yeah experimentation, i'm learning).

ow, pointy.
this's kinda cool, but it's sortof confusing too. I can't really decide what I think is happening. is it an exploding ship? is it that some comet or something came and is smashing into a bunch of stuff? but eh, you said it was abstract so I'll go with that and make up my own mind I guess.
I guess it does seem a little too much like you were actually working towards something for it to be abstract, but hey, I never did get the whole "abstract" thing.
anyway, nice chair rail, stair case, house in space exposion thingy.

possibly make the render a bit more clear, and show sum effect from the beam. the beams gr8, don't get me wrong there, but an explosion lights up stuff, which just isn't happening. looks cool, just lacks that lil real element.

That's awsome, the only thing I see it that it could use some softening up here and there, but that's pretty much it.

not bad not at all ju needs to be darkened up a lil... specially by the begining of the explosion other than that great job!

I think the render is a little choppy. And the image is burnt to much in some places. Gj though

it's ok, specially for your first time.
i would say you need to put some bigger shapes in as well as color, this one is just black an white, and it looks boring!
some red and yellow fog would have been cool, as well as some other colors to make it looks more alive.
i'll try to find some good examples for ya.

Looks good to me. By even doing this, you're far ahead of me! I've tried to do abstracts too, but they sucked too much so I deleted them.

Very beautiful, though I agree with ~RyJek, it seems a bit too bright. Just a *taaad* bit

A bit dark but an over niuce work with the brushing. Love the fading to it.

alyn, just a little question....is everything that you try that good? it looks really amazing, especially if you are somehow new to abstract art.
I think the render is a bit chaotic, but the overall pic looks quite fine

lol i'm not good at everything i do, my main strengths lie in terragen, space, and photomanipulation (once my site is released, you'll see what i'm talking about

if you look on my homepage, there is a picture (2d gallery) called "the second door" there I enhanced renders with textures too. well, most of it is photoshop work anyway 
ok, actually this thread is about YOUR work

Not bad at all for your first try. Your brushing is great, because you have been doing space art, but there are a few things that you need to look at. The render looks very jaggy, and some of the colours are not pleasent to look at. Also, you should try your hand at 2d. Check out some of +ekud 's works if you haven't done so already, and if you want to keep making abstracts. Dark abstracts are good, but it is still better when you can make out the render, and it is more clear.
Good work, and I wish you all the best

thanks for your constructive input

Hehe, yes, I was aware that the render wasn't your own. And the over blending might be the 'cause of some of the jaggyness.

It's not bad. It's something new from you, and it's a good thing to experiment. Maybe the light is too much but that is just a matter of taste.

wow i like the helixs in the pic , they look good

Whaaaaaaat..Alyn..Abstract!? Hmm.. Not too bad for a "first" try. However, that big bright ass light..doesn't extend far enough into the image to be that bright. Try less umm Brilliance lol.. and if its gonna be that bright it's gonna illuminate some shit right,? Unless you've placed the light directly in the middle of a black hole which is your area not mine
