very cool. I would kind of like to see more of the blob in the middle instead of it being so bright (it draws your eyes right to that and its hard to focus on anything else in the pictre).

you want me to tell you all the stuff i used? lol. ok

i used a series of 'noise' paramic modifiers first to get the look of it, played around by rotating it to get the perfect angle.
then went into material editor, chose 'reflection' and played around with that, then went into opacity and played with that too lol. theres also a few other bits an peices..
its really hard to show someone how to do it in a forum, IM etc..
much easier is the person is physicaly there, lol.
but if your intrested in 3ds max, i suggest you check out some tutorials, im sure there on the net somewhere. allthough i havnt came across any as of yet.

nothing original about it, but it's still pretty good. There's tons of these
around, that's why i say that.

The brightness is a big negative on it, as I agree with b_heyer on that.

nothin original? hey why dont you tell that to all the designers on deviant art or whatever, tell them to stop creating art because its unoriginal..

hey wait, why not jus close photoshop, open up MS PAINT and let your imagination go wild..

I gotta defend unflux, your art is becoming cliched. The last two or three images you put out have the same bubbly glass figure behind them with an overlay of binary/html/unlegible text. And if all the users on deviant art are doing this type of art, isn't it furthing unfluxes argument?

Sounds like a good idea, and artist should be able to work in a variety of mediums, especially if they are graphic designers.

How many wine testers create their own wine?
I am more into photography and webdesign, but I know art when I see it.

the style which i use and yeah many others use, is called abstract..
i really dont care if you say its unoriginal, because your saying that to the other thousands of artists aswell as me..
i thought art was about style, not originality... shouldnt you be flaming people who are ripping work instead :x


oh and unflux. about oringinality?

I really don't know much about digital art...and I really shouldn't get into this, but I agree with Brandon and Unflux. It's not just that a lot of other people have the same style as you, it's that most of your designs look so similar.
I have liked many of your previous designs, but I can't say that I like this one much at all. Have you ever heard someone say, "That's just a bunch of noise", when listening to music? Well, to me, that's what this design is.
But, hey, what do I know?
