No, it was just an example. The black glow, or burn, whatever you did, was not nice to look at. It was just some example to give you ideas, that's all. It does look better though.

Not sure what you're trying with the black out of the background though.

But overall, I'd suggest removing all the glows. They just look bad. Also, try connecting the II together.

Looking better though.



Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Ho Crono,

I did the black gradient in order to try to frame the shot and bring out the kid a little more. Obviously it didn't work out well. So I reduced all that.


The 'II' joined together looks pretty good. But on the original Star Wars poster its done like I did it. And I want to stick to the original. For that I framed the 'Star Wars' and removed the black cloud around. Just a slight shadow, I think, is left.

As for the quality; I'll just have to leave it like this until I find a better source.

This poster made it through some major changes, I think. And as far as I can tell it's doing really well. I wouldn't change much more - it might start to get worse.

Anyhow, I appreciate your further comments.


kindly,

PS:

I'm sorry about that "bevel-confusion". Until that day I was using the german version of Photoshop. But I stopped that. you can use all the regular PS espressions now.

Yeah thats looking heaps better. One thing I think you should do is make a backup layer of that "Star Wars" text (just hide it, its only in case you want to go back to it later), then rasterize the visible one and move the letter A's in both words a little left.

Busy days...

Well I did some more work on these letters. Firstly I moved the "A"s little. Much better now. And I changed the font of the "II". It should look more like the original. It was hard to find a proper font, but I think it is an improvement.


Version 5 that is. - Check it out.

Perhaps a wee bit too dark...

I suppose it depends on the color of the background. It looks darker when viewed against a white background for example. Perhaps the color of the background on which the final poster is supposed to be placed should be taken into consideration.

Hi OtZman,

Jeah. I checked out how it looks like on a white background. And I have to admit: not pretty. But I guess if one uses it as a wallpaper he certainly has a black background (Referring to the "post your desktop" topic).


I will stop working on this until I have a better source picture of Boba Fett. And I want to thank you* for your comments and your help.

Just in case: If you want to have a hi-res version (or anything of my previous work) PM me.


Tanks alot.



*: Of course I'm referring to every-single-one who commented this piece of work
