Trend Whore Attempt - Stuck ><

ConceptualMind · 06-04-2004

I accidently made a canvas green and I thought it looked cool. I started messing around and found it looked almost like a trend whore attempt. I experimented a little more, and now I'm stuck. Yes, it's really plain but I think it has potential. Also, keep in my this is my first time attempting Trend Whore/Vector lines.

Does anyone remember that Trend Whore tutorial on SystemDark? Do you know if I could find that tutorial somewhere? I'd really appreciate it. It was one of the best I've seen.

What should I do next? I'm stuck.

Approximately 30 minutes of work.

I've never fully grapsed the meaning of "trendwhore", but that's OK...

Anyhow, yeah, it does have potential, IMHO, but I have no idea how to exploit it. Sorry :/

The meaning of trendwhore as defined by Urban Dichonary

I like it but I feel as though it's missing something hmmmmm nice colours though

ConceptualMind · 06-04-2004

The colors inspired me.

I don't know what else to do though.

Maybe this will help.

A possibility is to tone down the circle in the middle, and add a larger, more dense square element on top of it. Like a textbox for a website, if you know what I mean.

I've already seen it and it isn't quite what I'm looking for. Thanks though!

EDIT: I got an idea going. Here's some more progress:

Yep its getting better. Maybe do some of the tech lines like on blue sfear.

You could try to add a smaller inner circle... Or just a part of it.

And you're right... this really has some potential.

ConceptualMind · 06-04-2004

@BlodoPKNZ - Yep, I was going to add more vector lines after I finished the bigger stuff.

@malboroman - I was thinking about that too!

i'v got a good idea. Throw away photoshop and learn some 3d.

Nah its nice but keep trying with new stuff. This trendy stuff is starting to annoy me now.

malboroman · 06-05-2004

I'm sorry.. I think I don't understand you correctly....

THROW AWAY PHOTOSHOP?!? ARE YOU CRAZY?!?

ConceptualMind · 06-05-2004

5-0 likes 3D Modellers. (i.e. RealSoft)

I'll never throw away Photoshop.

lol thats what i was saying 7 months ago,
soon i discovered the joy of glass fractals and a new graphical world was open to me.

ConceptualMind · 06-05-2004

Is RealSoft a free app? Or does it cost money? If so, how much.
